The Latest Treatments For Sleep Health

Improve your sleep with experienced doctors, scientifically-backed treatments and ongoing clinical support.


What is sleep?

Sleep is a vital bodily function that puts your body and mind in a state of little physical activity and limited awareness of your surroundings. This allows your body and mind to recharge, leaving you refreshed and alert when you wake up.

Why is sleep important?

Sleep helps the body remain healthy and stave off diseases. Without enough sleep, the brain cannot function properly.

Most adults require between seven and nine hours of quality sleep each night. Work schedules, day-to-day stressors, a disruptive bedroom environment, and medical conditions can all prevent us from receiving enough sleep. A healthy diet and positive lifestyle habits can help ensure better sleep at night – but for some, chronic lack of sleep may be the first sign of a sleep disorder.

What is a sleep disorder?

A sleep disorder is a chronic condition that primarily affects the quality, timing and amount of sleep you are experiencing each night.

Most people experience sleeplessness or poor-quality sleep at some stage in their life. Without a good nights sleep, your entire day can be a struggle.  Poor sleep once in a while is nothing to be concerned about and may have completely understandable causes such as stress, a new baby or a busy mind. A sleep disorder is a persistent inability to achieve healthy sleep. It can affect your health, safety and quality of life and needs to be addressed by a medical professional to avoid long-lasting health complications.

The 5 main sleep disorders include;

  1. Insomnia
  2. Sleep Apnea
  3. Parasomnia
