Want to Resolve Your Sleep Problems? Sleep Therapy at Renewed Vitality Can Help!
When you read the words “sleep therapy,” they may sound a bit funny. But sleep problems are no laughing matter. In the US alone, approximately 70 million people suffer from chronic sleep issues. Yet good sleep is vital for a healthy life, as sleep renews and heals the body.
That’s why sleep problems can cause so much damage. Lose a night’s sleep, and you’re less able to think clearly and function the next day. Lose sleep several nights in a row—even for just a few hours a night—and your body and mind begin to feel it. More importantly, lack of sleep can lead to a host of chronic health conditions.
If you are suffering from poor sleep, let us talk to you about our proven methods of Sleep Therapy.
Could You Be Suffering From a Sleep Disorder?
Sleep disorders can be more than just insomnia (trouble falling asleep). There are more than 100 specific sleep disorders. Here are a few of the more common types:
Sleep Apnea is a condition where you repeatedly stop and start breathing while you sleep. Sleep apnea can lead to fatigue, insomnia, anxiety and depression, obesity and diabetes, dementia, and heart disease.
Hypersomnia is also known as excessive sleepiness. You feel tired all the time, no matter how much you sleep. Other medical conditions or even medications can cause hypersomnia.
Narcolepsy is persistent daytime sleepiness that can become dangerous. People with narcolepsy tend to go right into dreaming (REM sleep). Narcoleptics can fall asleep at work, in the car at a red light, or while eating.
Shift Work Disorder is when you lack sleep or develop insomnia due to not sleeping during regular sleep hours. Truck drivers and night-shift workers often experience this disorder.
Parasomnias are undesirable physical events or experiences that happen when you’re entering sleep, within sleep, or during arousal from sleep. These can include sleep terrors, sleep paralysis, and sleep talking.
Sleep-related Movement Disorders include restless leg syndrome (RLS), the strong and almost irresistible urge to move your legs, ultimately keeping you awake at night. These conditions can occur at night when resting or when active or relaxing during the day.
If you think you may have a sleep disorder, contact us as soon as possible. There’s no need to continue suffering!

With Sleep Therapy, we can properly evaluate, diagnose, and treat any sleep issue.
Sleep Therapy: A Whole-body Approach to Treating Sleep Disorders
If you’ve got sleep problems, you’re definitely not alone! Yet often, doctors will prescribe a sleeping pill—which can’t resolve the root cause of the problem. And in some cases, such as with Ambien, the side effects can make the situation worse. But these sleep disorders can be thoroughly evaluated, diagnosed, and treated. Getting to the root problem and resolving it often lead to achieving deep, healing sleep.
Functional medicine is a whole-body approach. We spend time with you to learn your history, current state of health, and all concerns you may have. This, combined with comprehensive lab testing, can help us determine the root cause of your sleep problems. That way, we can provide a complete treatment plan to help you start feeling better as fast as possible.
It may take several steps to achieve these goals, but they are absolutely obtainable! Good, restorative, restful sleep is critical to your health!
The Benefits of Proper Sleep
How much sleep do you need? It depends on your age. The National Sleep Foundation breaks it into eight categories, from 17 hours for newborns to seven to eight hours for older adults. The recommendation for young adults and adults is seven to nine hours. Benefits of getting the proper amount of sleep include:
- Improved memory and creativity
- Better physical fitness
- Healthier immune system
- Increased vitality — better tissue repair and good hair, skin, and nails
- Improved stress management
- Greater emotional stability
- Reduced risk of hypertension, stroke, heart attack, and death
- Metabolism and weight management
- Reduction of obesity and diabetes
- Decreased risk for dementia and Alzheimer’s
