Tips for Getting Restful Sleep

Restful sleep encompasses sleep quantity, sleep quality, and sleep continuity. The National Sleep Foundation provides recommended guidelines for the appropriate number of sleep hours based on age, which serves as a start to getting sound sleep.

In this video, we discuss how to achieve restful sleep by focusing not just on the hours of sleep but on other important aspects as well. Environmental factors and other external conditions can affect our sleep quality and leave us waking up feeling unrefreshed. Medical and other sleep disorders can also disrupt the continuity of sleep we get. Consulting a sleep medicine specialist can help you identify and address these issues.

If you are concerned that you or your child have a sleep disorder, contact your physician for an evaluation. A sleep study conducted at a sleep clinic can provide detailed insights into your sleep patterns and help you sleep better. For children, a pediatric sleep specialist can offer tailored advice and treatment options to ensure they sleep good and wake up refreshed.
