There are a wide variety of mats on the market, including straw mats, bamboo and rattan mats, linen mats, jade mats, etc., as well as the recently-heated “health†mats.
However, the relevant experts recently accepted the "Life Times" reporter interview, said that the "health" function of the mat still needs further scientific verification. Zhou Bangyong, deputy secretary-general of the China Health Care Association, further pointed out that only through the national health product inspection, the products that obtained the “Jian†batch number have health effects. Therefore, many so-called health care mats on the market are suspected of violating regulations. Experts pointed out that for health reasons, instead of listening to the publicity of the health care mat, it is better to pay attention to the details of some scientific use of the mat.
Wang Kai, director of the rehabilitation department of Shanghai Jing'an Geriatric Hospital, said that new or long-term unused mats are prone to breeding aphids. The mat should be soaked in boiling water for 10 minutes and dried for use. And people's dander and dust will fall into the gap of the mat, so the mat should also be washed with soapy water.
The weather in the north is dry, so it is not necessary to wash the sun too often. In areas with high humidity such as the south, pay attention to the mat.
Experts also pointed out that special populations, especially the elderly and children, should be extra cautious when selecting and using mats.
Wang Kai said that although the straw mat is soft and absorbs sweat, it is easy to breed mites. The bamboo and rattan mats are opposite to the straw mats and are suitable for elderly people with a history of allergies. The linen mat is cool and breathable, non-static, with the advantages of fast moisture absorption, no skin, soft and comfortable, and the elderly are better.
Wang Kai also suggested that the width of the mat should be smaller than the width of the bed. If it is wide, the old man will sit on the edge of the mat when he gets up and fall to the ground, causing a fracture.
If the elderly are not active on the mat for a long time, the blood circulation speed of the joints will be reduced, resulting in insufficient blood supply. At this time, if the room temperature is too low, the elderly who have suffered from spinal disease and frozen shoulder may be caused by sleeping on the mat. Aggravated.
Old people, especially those with diabetes, have a rough surface and feel dull. They are easy to be scratched on a mat with uneven surface and crumbs, and the infection is not easy to heal. Therefore, a mat with a smooth surface should be chosen.
Some elderly people will have vascular headaches in a short time. This is because the human capillaries are in an expanded state at high temperatures, and at this time, if they are immediately placed on the mat, the capillaries contract with cold. Therefore, such elderly people should not use a mat.
For the children's mat, Zhang Feng, director of the Beijing Children's Hospital Health Center, said that the children's skin is delicate, the mat should not be too hard, and the surface must be smooth to avoid stabbing the skin. Children's resistance is poor, and the sleeping mat is easy to catch cold, so it is best to lay a layer of cotton sheets on the mat.
