Frequently Encountered Sleep Disorders
Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome
This disorder is characterized by repeat occurrences of partial or complete blockage of the upper airway during slumber, leading to disrupted sleep patterns and decreased oxygen levels.
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)
RLS is defined as an irrepressible urge to move the legs, usually due to uncomfortable sensations, which often occur in the evening or during rest periods.
Frequent nocturnal urination
This condition involves waking many times during the night to urinate, which can significantly affect sleep quality and lead to feelings of tiredness during the day.
Snoring
Snoring is what happens when the airflow through the nose and mouth is partially obstructed during sleep. It often results in a loud noise that can disrupt the sleep of both the snorer and others nearby.
Cardiac arrhythmia
This refers to irregular heartbeats that can disrupt sleep patterns and are sometimes associated with other sleep disorders, potentially leading to more severe health concerns.
Dementia and sleep
Sleep disturbances are common in individuals with dementia, affecting their overall health and quality of life by causing confusion, restlessness, and increased risk of falls.
Frequent nocturnal awakening
This involves waking several times during the night, leading to fragmented sleep and daytime fatigue, impacting daily activities and overall well-being.
Chronic insomnia
Chronic insomnia is characterized by persistent difficulty falling or staying asleep. It affects daily functioning and well-being by causing irritability, lack of focus, and increased stress levels.
Daytime sleepiness
Excessive daytime sleepiness involves feeling unusually tired and drowsy during the day, which can impact concentration and performance and even increase the risk of accidents.
Delayed Sleep-Phase Syndrome
This disorder occurs when an individual’s sleep schedule is shifted later, often resulting in difficulty waking up at a conventional time and challenges in maintaining a regular daily routine.
Sleep Study: First Step to Your Treatment
A sleep study is a key part of getting a proper diagnosis. We comprehensively assess you for a wide range of sleep disorders, from insomnia and excessive sleepiness to shift work challenges, restless legs syndrome, snoring, sleep apnea, and beyond.
Different Methods of Sleep Testing:
In-Lab Sleep Studies
Conducted in a comfortable and relaxing sleep lab environment, these studies allow patients to spend the night while their sleep patterns are monitored and recorded for accurate diagnosis.
Home Sleep Apnea Testing
This test utilizes a portable device and allows patients to record their sleep patterns and breathing in the comfort of their own homes, offering a convenient and less intrusive option for diagnosing sleep apnea.

Diet & Insomnia Program
This program explores the relationship between diet and sleep, focusing on how dietary changes can enhance sleep quality and manage insomnia. It highlights the role of nutrition in fostering restful nights, helping participants make informed choices to support better sleep.
Positional Therapy
Positional therapy includes techniques to encourage sleeping positions that alleviate sleep disorder symptoms. By guiding individuals to positions that enhance breathing and comfort, this therapy aims to improve sleep quality and contribute to a healthier routine.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
This structured approach targets negative thought patterns that affect mental health. Promoting positive changes, it offers tools to reshape perspectives and habits, leading to better mental health and life satisfaction.
Sleep Counseling
Sleep counseling provides guidance and strategies to improve sleep habits and resolve issues. Through personalized consultations, counselors help develop routines that promote better rest, contributing to overall health and vitality.
Sleep Medicine
Sleep medicine involves the use of medications designed to treat sleep disorders. These medications assist individuals in achieving restful sleep, improving quality of life, and enhancing daytime functioning.
Our therapies include
PAP Therapy
Positive Airway Pressure therapy uses controlled air pressure to keep airways open during sleep. It effectively treats sleep apnea by maintaining airflow and preventing breathing interruptions.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)
CPAP therapy delivers a continuous stream of air to keep airways open, improving sleep quality for those with obstructive sleep apnea by preventing breathing pauses.
BiPAP
Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure therapy provides two levels of pressure, aiding in natural breathing for individuals with sleep apnea or respiratory conditions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i)
CBT-i employs cognitive and behavioural strategies to address insomnia’s root causes, promoting healthier sleep patterns and improving overall well-being.
Support for Sleep-Related Mental Health Challenges
Many elements, such as lifestyle choices, environmental conditions, medical issues, and sleep disorders, can disrupt sleep. Therapy can help you identify and resolve these factors.
Here are some therapeutic approaches to tackle sleep challenges:
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi): CBT-i employs cognitive and behavioural strategies to address insomnia's root causes, promoting healthier sleep patterns and improving overall well-being.
- Imagery Rehearsal Therapy: This technique uses visualization to recreate and alter problematic dreams. It helps individuals manage dream content for more restful sleep and enhances overall well-being and mental health.
- Accelerated Resolution Therapy: This therapy uses a combination of memory recall and eye movements to process traumatic memories, reducing emotional distress and improving sleep quality.
- Mindfulness-Based Practices : Mindfulness practices, which include meditation and deep breathing techniques, promote relaxation for better sleep quality.
Using Sleeping
Medications Safely and Effectively
Sleep aids can help people fall asleep or prolong their sleep duration. However, they should be used temporarily to minimize the risk of dependency.
A doctor might suggest sleep aids if:
- You need immediate relief from a sleep issue disrupting your life.
- Lifestyle adjustments have been ineffective for your sleep troubles.
- You intend to use them for just a few weeks.
