Why go to The Sleep Center?
In the past, many sleep disorders were considered untreatable or consequences of normal aging. Today, many disorders can be diagnosed efficiently and treated successfully. There is heightened clinical interest and research in sleep medicine. Much of this excitement stems from our increasing abilities to quickly and successfully help people with their sleep difficulties. Getting a good night's sleep can make a huge difference in a person's life, and The Sleep Center at Valley Medical Center can help achieve this.
Who should go to The Sleep Center?
Do you have a hard time falling asleep or staying awake? Do you consistently awaken too early or have difficulty awakening? Does your snoring awaken you or your partner? Do you or your partner notice you wake up choking or gasping for breath?
These and many other symptoms indicate that you may have a sleep-related problem or a sleep disorder. Studies show 60 percent of American adults experience a sleep problem a few nights a week or more. You may not even be aware of how tired you are, thinking that there is nothing wrong. The great news is most sleep-related problems and sleep disorders can be successfully treated.
