Insomnia Treatment

Health and Performance International in New York cannot stress enough that your sleeplessness has a profound negative impact on your daytime functioning, health and quality of life.

Insomniacs have difficulty falling asleep and/or staying asleep, which leads to a negative impact on the next day. It’s a condition that touches the lives of approximately 60 million adults in the United States.

Optimum amounts of sleep for most adults appear to be between 7 and 8 hours per night, according to the National Institutes of Health. We want you to get at least 5 hours of continuous sleep.

Symptoms of insomnia include:

• Difficulty falling sleep
• Waking up frequently during the night
• Difficulty returning to sleep
• Waking up too early in the morning
• Unrefreshing sleep
• Daytime sleepiness
• Difficulty concentrating
• Irritability

Insomnia should not be ignored. Sleep helps the body conserve energy and recharge. So it's no surprise that lack of sleep may have a direct impact on how you function the next day. It might even impact your health.

With lack of sleep, you might experience:

• Daytime fatigue
• Irritability
• Decreased feelings of well-being
• Decreased ability to concentrate
• Decreased ability to problem solve
• Difficulty in making decisions
