Memory foam mattresses were originally developed for NASA for their aircraft cushions back in the 1960's but then they became popular for medical purposes. Lying or sleeping on a bed puts pressure on certain parts or bones of the body. Memory foam mattresses mould to the shape of the person taking this pressure away.
