Sleep Your Pain Away On Klass Vaki
The Rolls Royce Of Sleeping Surfaces
"It is only logical that a flat, even sleeping surface is not suitable to serve as a resting surface for the curves and contours of the human body," says Petro Groenewald, inventor of the KBS2000, also known as the Klass Vaki Body Support System.
At the present time Petro, a former fashion model who suffered with back pain herself, enjoys worldwide acknowledgment for her revolutionary body support, which is used on top of an ordinary mattress. Among other things, the Klass Vaki earned her a gold and silver medal at the International Exhibition for Inventors and Innovators in London.
Petro’s logical reasoning regarding sleeping habits is that sleeping on a flat mattress unwittingly and gradually destroys you physically and is extremely harmful for your health. Sleep is a gift from the Creator, meant to enable the body to heal itself, especially the back and muscles of the back, which do all the daily hard work.
According to Petro, everybody raves about nutritional and exercise programs, which of course are very important, but they forget that the healing benefits, of sleep and rest, is the third leg on which a healthy body is built. Internationally, billions are spent on pain clinics, and sleep clinics where "sleep" is studied and researched but very few practical results emerge. The reason for this is that researchers have, as yet, not made the simple discovery that flat sleeping surfaces are the cause of back pain, resulting in back pain occurring in epidemic proportions worldwide.
Petro had her own research done at the University of Cape Town, with the aim of determining "the effect of the flat sleeping surface on the pain experience". This research proved indisputably that her sleeping surface, the Klass Vaki, with its contours and built-in supports is the Rolls Royce of sleeping surfaces. This research was published in the South African Medical Journal.
These findings paved the way for further research regarding other conditions (caused by the flat sleeping surface) and the mysterious pains for which doctors cannot find answers. The flat sleeping surface is, for instance, a contributing factor towards curvature of the spine (scoliosis) which has become an ever-increasing problem worldwide. A student at the University of Cape Town also obtained her masters degree with a thesis on Klass Vaki.
Petro hopes that Klass Vaki will eventually cause a sleep revolution. Already her product is being exported to many countries, including Asia amongst others, where it is being recommended for children of four years old and older.
The Klass Vaki is a body support, which alleviates pain, especially lower back pain and those mysterious pains mostly caused by the back muscles, and the pain that accompanies osteoporosis. It is excellent for the prevention of bedsores (decubitis), common in bedridden patients. This was confirmed by research done at the Technical University of Berlin, Germany. Cancer patients also benefit by the use of the Klass Vaki and Petro was commended by the Mariëtte Loots Cancer Foundation for enduring commitment and outstanding achievement, by positively promoting the quality of life of all cancer victims.
Users must make sure that they buy the correct size, which is determined by hip measurement (garment size). If it is too wide or too narrow it will not have the desired effect. The Klass Vaki does not replace the ordinary mattress, but is placed on top of a firm mattress. It is light in weight, easy to handle and can be readily transported in a special carry bag.
Today, it is possible that the surface on which we sleep is the probable cause of many of our back problems. This possibility started a train of thought which eventually led to a solution: a body support which helps to relieve back pain and therefore puts an end to sleepless nights.
