Sleep is something we all need. Unfortunately, the diagnosis of a sleep disorder can affect one’s ability to get to sleep or stay asleep. It also has the potential to interfere with the quality of one’s sleep, leading to a host of symptoms as a result.
At Recovery Lab of Rancho Cucamonga, we understand how detrimental it can be to live with a sleep disorder. We take pride in helping you achieve better sleep and avoid the harmful conditions associated with a lack of rest.
Sleep Disorders
- Types of Sleep Disorders
There are several sleep disorders out there. Some of them include insomnia, sleep apnea, circadian rhythm sleep disorder, chronic fatigue syndrome, and sleep paralysis.
While each sleep disorder differs in symptoms, they all encapsulate one thing: improper sleep. Affecting your length and/or quality of sleep, these conditions can be damaging.
- What Causes Sleep Disorders?
There’s no single cause of sleep disorders. Not to mention, different sleep disorders may be caused by different things. While there’s some mystery surrounding them, we have a general idea of what could trigger some people to develop them.
Sleep disorders can be caused or triggered by hormones imbalances, certain medications, being overweight, too much caffeine, environmental factors, or genetics. Underlying conditions like depression or anxiety disorders, diabetes, GERD, or traumatic brain injuries can also lead to disordered sleep.
- The Importance of Proper Sleep
Sleep plays a crucial role in all our lives. Apart from giving us energy to start a new day, getting enough quality sleep can have a positive impact on every system in our body, from our nervous system to our cardiovascular system. In turn, it can have an effect on our mental, emotional, cognitive, and physical function.
Proper sleep can lead to improved memory, boosted immunity, better mood, tissue growth and repair, and the reduction of toxic buildup in our bodies.
- Health Issues Tied to a Lack of Sleep
Not only is getting the right amount of sleep beneficial, but not getting enough of it could be detrimental over time.
Health issues with links to a lack of sleep include:
- High blood pressure
- Type 2 diabetes
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Obesity
- Kidney disease
- Heart attacks
- Strokes
- Cancers
- How Recovery Lab Services Can Improve Sleep
Sleep disorders require a proper diagnosis and treatment plan created by a doctor. However, at Recovery Lab of Cucamonga, we offer a range of wellness services to help improve sleep or at least combat the side effects of lack of sleep.
Cryotherapy can work to improve sleep by lowering stress hormones and reducing chronic pain, which can otherwise be sleep disorder triggers.
Red light therapy, on the other hand, is a natural melatonin booster. It has the ability to regulate the circadian rhythm and reduce stress to promote better sleep.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) supports better sleep by combating excess inflammation and balancing the nervous system. The extra oxygen supplied to the body via HBOT can also reduce the symptoms of sleep disorders by boosting cellular repair and supporting cognitive function.
