What We Treat
Is an ability to get to sleep or stay asleep compromising your quality of life?
Sleep-wake disorders cover a range of behaviors, categorized by how they affect your sleep behavior:
- Insomnia: trouble falling asleep or staying asleep throughout the night.
- Sleep apnea: abnormal breathing patterns while asleep.
- Restless leg syndrome: feeling an impulse to move your legs right as you’re falling asleep.
- Narcolepsy: extreme sleepiness and falling asleep during the day.
Sleep-wake disorders prevent people from regulating their sleep during traditional night/day cycles. Instead, they experience wakefulness during the night and sleepiness during the day.
