What Makes The Insomnia and Sleep Institute Different
There are many sleep disorder testing centers around the country, but most of these sites simply provide testing. They do not necessarily diagnose, and many do not offer treatments. Even fewer provide all of the latest, most effective, and safest treatments for a variety of sleep disorders. The Insomnia and Sleep Institute is a sleep center and features unprecedented staffing levels. Here, you will find three sleep specialists, a clinical psychologist who focuses on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, nurse practitioners trained in sleep medicine, a physician assistant with a Masters in Sleep Medicine, and respiratory therapists.
There are a variety of sleep disorders, and only a sleep specialist can provide the right diagnosis and treatment plan. Many times, sleep disorders have associated co-morbidities or exist along other sleep disorders. For example, insomnia has many causes—one of which might be sleep apnea. Understanding your comprehensive sleep disorder is paramount to properly treat it.
Why Sleep Matters
Studies have shown that the majority of American adults do not get the amount or quality of sleep they need in order to function at top levels. This chronic lack of sleep can cause issues in every other facet of your life, from physical ailments (like an increased risk of stroke) to problems in your work and social life. We need the right sleep in order to be our best selves and make the most of life. Unfortunately, there are many reasons we might not be getting quality sleep, and working with a sleep specialist is the best way to identify the causes of sleep disturbances.
Many children also do not get enough high-quality sleep. This can lead to problems in school, with the family, and the inability to learn and develop as they should. Some sleep disorders are more common in children than adults (such as night terrors), and it’s important to bear in mind that sleep disorders can happen to anyone. The sooner a correct diagnosis is made, the quicker you can start testing and treatment.
A Sleep Doctor for Optimum Health
How many people do you know that have seen a sleep specialist? The reality is that even though sleep disorders are relatively common, most people do not seek out professional help until the situation is severe. If you suspect you have a sleep disorder, it’s important to book a consultation right away. Common symptoms of a sleep disorder include fatigue throughout the day, feeling like you didn’t get enough sleep no matter how long you were in bed, or a partner telling you that you snore.
Know that there are options available for every type of sleep disorder. Cognitive behavioral therapy for Insomnia, or CBT-I, is a great option for many disorders such as insomnia. CPAP machines can help with sleep apnea, ensuring that the airway remains open throughout the night. Those who do not find success with CPAP might be good candidates for an implant, which requires a small surgery—however, you do need to try CPAP before being eligible for an implant to treat sleep apnea.
