A Good Night's SleepImportance of a Good Night's Sleep

Over 40 million Americans suffer from 70 different sleep disorders and 60 percent of adults report having sleep problems a few nights a week or more. Unfortunately, most of them are undiagnosed and untreated. Sleep deprivation can have serious effects on your health both physically and mentally. Inadequate sleep impairs our ability to think, to handle stress, to maintain a healthy immune system and control our emotions.

Sleep disorders are linked to an increased rate of:

  • Heart Attack/Hypertension
  • Car Accidents
  • Stroke
  • Diabetes
  • Psychiatric Conditions
  • Depression/Mood Disorders
  • Congestive Heart Failure
  • Weight Gain
  • Attention Deficit Disorder 

If you think you may have problems with sleep or possible daytime fatigue, please take our short questionnaire to see if you could be affected by one of the disorders.
