      Vispring beds have been defining the luxury for rest since 1901.
      The British company, which was acquired by Flex in 2005, were the provider of sleeping comfort in the luxurious suites of the Titanic and Queen Mary.
      And now they have become the heart of the Real Madrid dressing room.
      The Vispring Diamond Majesty mattress, which costs £47,000, has already been purchased by the Los Blancos stars according, to the owner of the Vispring Madrid store Alfonso del Saz.

      He said [without naming any players]: “He took two 120×220 mattresses. This other one also took big beds, we changed all the ones he had at home.”
      Francisco Javier Barbero who is the director of Abantos Clinic revealed why Carlo Ancelotti’s men invested so much on a bed.
      Barbero said: “A footballer would find a faster recovery speed in this mattress.
      “That relieves the pressure on their musculoskeletal system and facilitates metabolic recovery through greater comfort, temperature and humidity close to physiological values.”

      The £47,000 model is made from silk, bamboo and three rows of pocket springs.
      The most luxurious collection from Vispring tailors each bed to the individual’s sleeping position, ensuring the optimal level of firmness, springiness, and cushioning.
      Fans spot Jude Bellingham’s classy gesture after facing Greenwood’s Getafe as they say ‘England captain material’
      And if the bed is shared by two people the mattresses are made to not intertwine the postures.
      The mattress is meant to reduce the risk of injuries and allow players to recover faster during their rest periods – giving Real Madrid stars that extra boost.
      Barbero continued: “Respecting the hours of sleep and rest periods between competitions is of paramount importance to optimise physical and mental condition and reduce the risks of exhaustion and exhaustion, injuries.”
      The cheapest mattress at Vispring will still set you back a hefty £5,000.
      But Alfonso thinks the price is reasonable as he “can’t understand that for what it costs you to get a few car tyres, you can’t buy a good bed”. More

      Tramadol has spread like a disease in football – will moves to ban the highly addictive drug work?

      by

      BEHIND Tramadol, that comfy sort of drug that eases pain and helps provide a good night’s sleep, lies a nasty little secret.It is addictive and may lead directly to a drastically spoiled life.
      Former Bury star Ryan Cresswell took legal drugs like Tramadol to ease pain and is now urging players facing similar problems to seek helpCredit: PA
      Painkiller Tramadol is a growing issue in football and rugbyCredit: AFP
      It has spread like a pox in football and rugby, sports in which pain is as common as a kick on the shin or an awkward fall.
      Paracetamol is a safer alternative but only dulls pain and is much less effective than Tramadol, which is an opioid and has many after-effects.
      Moves to ban it will be taken in the new year after the World Anti-Doping Agency ruled that from January 1, any sportsman or sportswoman faces a lengthy suspension if caught with the drug in their system.
      This might work but, then, possibly not.
      READ MORE TOP STORIES
      It will be important that medical staff at clubs will be alerted to, first, the dangers of the drug and, second, the level of punishment facing takers.
      Difficulties in policing for addiction are clear and the benefits in aiding relaxation and sleep have proved attractive enough to tempt injured footballers beyond the medical profession.
      Immediate effects may include vomiting, vertigo, constipation and drowsiness but it is not passing effects that are the problem, although a sleepy centre-back is the last thing a team needs.
      A friend (not a footballer) who was prescribed Tramadol told me that after one dose he dreamed he was playing alongside Harry Kane and woke up shouting “pass it here, Harry”. Perhaps for a moment he thought he was a South Korean.
      Most read in Football
      Another story from a different friend. He had to hand off his wife in bed as she flailed at him, shouting angrily.
      He cowered on the edge of his bed for the rest of the night. But the serious problems arise with addiction.
      Once footballers find it impossible to resist taking the pills, then psychiatric symptoms occur.
      A number of players and retired players are now subject to hallucinations, panic attacks, paranoia and extreme anxiety.
      And acute withdrawal symptoms take up to seven days to disperse.
      Drugs in sport has a long history and the more sophisticated medicine and chemistry becomes, the harder such cheating is to stop, let alone control.
      In outward appearance, football has avoided the worst of the epidemic but Tramadol is a little different in that its use, often combined with paracetamol, to alleviate pain and even aid sleep is beneficial so that the Wada ban may not be wholly welcome.
      If you have developed a reliance or an addiction, stopping is a process where you’ll need help.Ryan Cresswell
      However, a doctor’s prescription will no longer be permissible, which for a lot of players will be bad news indeed.
      Ryan Cresswell, who made 250-plus appearances for clubs including Bury and Northampton, suffered with painkiller addiction throughout his career.
      He had a knee op at 17 but the cartilage went again nine years later and he took legal drugs, including Tramadol, to manage the pain.
      “It’s not normal to be taking eight or nine tablets a day and I realised I needed help,” he said.
      “My advice to players is to speak to someone. If you have developed a reliance or an addiction,  stopping is a process where you’ll need help.”
      The PFA have become involved. Dr Michael Bennett, director of player wellbeing,  urged players to use the PFA’s services if they think they may need support.
      “We know there are players in real difficulty with Tramadol usage,” he said, adding that there have been high-profile cases where addiction has contributed to huge problems in the lives of players. More

      Matteo was immediately referred to Leeds General Infirmary after the diagnosis, but his condition worsened.
      The former Scotland international suffered a seizure due to the immense pressure being put on his brain.
      And doctors had no choice but to perform emergency surgery to remove the tumour – from which he is still recovering.
      Now, Matteo – who hung up his boots in 2009 – has revealed doctors informed him the tumour had most likely already formed while he was still playing.

      Recalling the ordeal to the BBC, Matteo, 49, said: “You can’t believe it, can you?
      “Obviously you get told what it is and it’s been a childhood cancer and you’ve probably played your whole career with a brain tumour in your head.”
      Now that he’s out of the woods, Matteo feels comfortable enough to crack some light-hearted jokes about the ordeal.
      He continued: “I might have been a better player mightn’t I?”

      Matteo’s family were held together during the difficult time by wife Jessica.
      Recalling her husband’s illness, she said: “It started off with headaches and a little bit of blurred vision.
      “And within 48 hours, Dom was blind. He had a massive seizure, he was in a wheelchair and he had very little speech.”
      She told the Daily Mail last year: “Dom’s surgeon Ryan Mathew took him down to theatre at 5.15pm and told me to go home to try to get some sleep.
      “But I didn’t sleep a wink. I perched on the edge of my bed waiting for the phone call, which finally came at 3am, after Dom had been in theatre for almost 10 hours.
      “It seemed like an eternity, but it was the best phone call of my life.
      “Ryan said he’d removed 90-95 per cent of Dom’s tumour and that he was doing really well.
      “He said he was sorry that he may have lost the sight in Dom’s right eye.

      “But I was overwhelmed with relief and gratitude that he was OK.”
      Matteo’s arduous, and still ongoing recovery, has included having to relearn how to read and write.
      He has come a long way and admits he’s still not fully processed the life-changing ordeal.
      Matteo said: “It was so surreal, really.

      The truth behind Man City striker Erling Haaland’s bizarre sleep secret which has helped him break goal-scoring records

      by

      IT sounds like a terrifying ­concept, but taping your mouth shut at night is becoming a bit of a health trend.Manchester City star Erling Haaland, 23, told podcast host Logan Paul he thinks “sleep is the most important thing in the world”.

      And, to get the best shut-eye, the striker said he taped his mouth shut at night to encourage nasal breathing.
      Alex Neist, founder of ­Hostage Tape, a mouth-tape brand, explains the theory behind the idea.
      “Better recovery is the biggest reason,” he told Sun Health.
      “Sleep is the most powerful way Erling can be the best athlete every day.
      READ MORE ON SLEEP
      “Mouth-breathing is a terrible way to breathe during sleep.”
      Haaland is not alone in his quest for optimum health.
      Other celebrity fans include Tess Daly and Gwyneth Paltrow.
      But is breathing solely through your nose at night really that good for you, and what are the potential dangers?
      Most read in Football
      Kerry Davies, aka The SleepFixer, told Sun Health: “Mouth taping, a method said to prevent snoring, is ­garnering attention.
      “But as a sleep ­specialist for 13 years, I urge caution.”
      NOSE OVER MOUTH
      THE aim of mouth taping is to focus on breathing through the nose, which is highly efficient.
      Yoga teacher Natalie Dale, from East ­London, says: “Nasal breathing acts as a filtration system for the body as your nose hairs prevent allergens, dust and so on from entering the lungs, which prevents allergies.”
      It also reduces susceptibility to bugs, such as colds, and slows your breathing, which eases stress, experts say.
      And nitric oxide is released, which helps to widen blood vessels, improving oxygen intake and circulation.
      Alex says: “With mouth breathing, you’re exhaling more CO2.
      “Your body needs CO2 to transfer oxygen into your muscles for energy.
      The less CO2 you have, the less oxygen your body absorbs, regardless of how much you inhale through your mouth.
      “You get more ­oxygen through the nose.”
      Studies show other benefits too, such as reduced blood pressure, improved facial structure and better lung capacity.
      When it comes to sleep, it is thought better-oxygenated blood can improve the quality of your snooze, reducing daytime fatigue, hunger and mood swings.
      And it may help to prevent snoring.
      Natalie says: “Breathing through your mouth at night generally results in snoring and bad breath.”
      Many people opt to use mouth tape to try to prevent snoring, which affects 41 per cent of adults.
      TURNING YOUR NOSE UP
      EVIDENCE to support mouth taping is lacking, experts say.
      While most of the benefits are anecdotal, Alex points to Taiwanese studies.
      One showed mouth taping reduced snoring, as reported by partners.
      A second showed patients’ snoring reduced by at least half in 65 per cent of cases.
      But Natalie says: “There isn’t much research to support mouth taping, so I would be wary of promoting it.
      “You need to assess what is causing the mouth breathing in the first place, rather than just trying taping.”
      Kerry adds: “Dangers arise if someone has a deviated septum or sleep apnoea.
      “Imagine waking up gasping for air, but unable to open your mouth.
      “It could also spur sleep-associated anxieties.”
      HOW TO BREATHE
      IF you want to give mouth taping a go, take it slowly. Alex says: “Start by using gentle tape during the day.
      Get used to the feeling.” It’s also worth practising nasal breathing as a form of meditation.
      Natalie says: “My favourite is the yoga practice of alternate nostril breathing. This is very calming.”
      To try it, simply hold one nostril closed and breathe, then swap nostrils
      AND THE TRUTH ABOUT OTHER UNUSUAL FOOTIE HEALTH FIXES…
      EYE SPY
      IT’S not just mouth taping that ensures Haaland gets a good night’s kip.
      Three hours before bedtime the Norwegian star dons blue light glasses.

      He told Logan Paul: “To sleep good, [I use] just simple kind of things.
      “Blue-blocking glasses, for shutting out all the signals and everything, I think is really important.”
      The glasses reduce the amount of blue light that enters the eyes from phone and tablet screens.
      Blue light can prevent the production of the sleep hormone, melatonin.
      With too little, sleep patterns suffer.
      WINE NOT?
      ENGLAND striker Jamie Vardy has admitted to drinking port to help him sleep before a match.
      He wrote in his autobiography: “I fill a small plastic bottle halfway and sip the port while watching TV.

      “It tastes like Ribena to me, and helps me switch off and get to sleep a bit easier the night before a game.”
