As a result, in 1994, Natura World, Inc was born.
Rossdeutscher and Son found that, while many mattresses on the market looked plush and luxurious and even felt comfortable when tested in the store, these mattresses failed to address the more serious long term issues such as continual back pain, restless sleep, and waking up groggy and tired. They discovered that consumers were in need of healthy sleep in order to respond to the demands of the day. The Rossdeutscher team set out to create a total sleep solution with benefits that were more than just “skin deep.”
Researching how the body moves and body activity during sleep, they created a bed that was designed to work with the body, not against it. Their Classic IV bed with its patented Double Slat Technology was an immediate success. The bed was received enthusiastically by consumers and was both endorsed and recommended by the Canadian Physiotherapy Association. This started the ball rolling towards the creation of a luxurious, healthy line of natural bedding, as well as the manufacturing of numerous innovative sleep enhancing products to help people wake up to a better day.
Natura has the most gorgeous bedding I have ever seen and they had excellent customer service, they answered all the questions that I had, like isn't it itchy, no, and more! They are a very transparent company, who believe that you should know exactly whats in your bedding just as you do with your food. We received the washable wool mattress pads, washable wool all season comforters and sunshine pillows for the kids. I was so excited to try out this bedding for the kids, so excited I still want to crawl into their beds at night instead of mine.
Our house has a wood stove for heat so the temperature of our house is very hard to regulate. We are either way to hot or freezing cold and can go back and forth many times during the day and night. Wool bedding's biggest feature is that it regulates the body's temperature naturally. No sweaty, clammy kids that are kicking off the covers because they are too hot and then wake up again later because they are freezing.
I feel good at night knowing that they are cozy and warm in nice natural bedding. Wool naturally repels dust mites, bed bugs and other common allergens because it lacks the one thing they need – moisture. While wool fibers store moisture at their core, it’s released directly to the environment while the outside stays dry. With synthetic fibers, moisture sits on the outside of the fibers and the fabric feels wet to the touch.
Wool naturally draws moisture away from your body, storing as much as 30% of its own weight without feeling wet to the touch. Cotton only absorbs 8%, synthetics less than 5%. Because wool is so good at drawing moisture from your skin to its core, your body regulates its own temperature more efficiently.

I like the idea of the pet beds, but I couldn't imagine spending $180 on a bed for Kona. But ooo la la I would love to have one of those comforters for Lily who wakes us up at least once a night because she is too cold, or has kicked her blankets off probably because she was too hot.
