Sleep Medicine
Sleep medicine is a medical specialty devoted to the diagnosis and therapy of
sleep disturbances,
and disorders. Over 100 different disorders of sleeping and
waking
have been identified, grouped in four main categories: problems with falling and staying asleep (
insomnia
); problems with staying awake (excessive daytime sleepiness); problems with keeping to a regular sleep schedule (sleep rhythm problem); and unusual behaviours during sleep (sleep-disruptive behaviours, e.g.
sleep walking
). Treatment will vary and depend on the specific sleep disorder but range from treatment by a Respiratory or Sleep Medicine Doctor with medicines to
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
,
sleep hygiene
and sleep routines and relaxation,
meditation
and exercise.
