Understanding Sleep Issues

Poor sleep affects nearly half of Canadian adults. Chronic sleep issues increase risks for heart disease, diabetes, depression, and cognitive decline. While sleep medications can help short-term, they don't address underlying causes. Behavioral approaches like CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia) are now considered first-line treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CBT-I and how is it different from regular therapy?
CBT-I (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia) is a specialized, structured program specifically for sleep problems. It typically takes 4-8 sessions and addresses thoughts, behaviors, and habits affecting sleep. It's more effective than sleeping pills long-term.
Can natural supplements help with sleep?
Some evidence supports magnesium, L-theanine, and certain herbs for sleep. However, effectiveness varies by individual and underlying cause. A naturopath can help identify which approaches may help and ensure they don't interact with medications.
Should I do a sleep study?
Sleep studies are valuable if sleep apnea or other medical sleep disorders are suspected. Signs include loud snoring, gasping at night, or excessive daytime sleepiness despite enough hours in bed. Your family doctor can refer you.
