Our Services
10% to 30% of adults have a hard time getting the six to eight hours of
sleep required each night to restore the body’s natural energy.
The BHS Sleep Center’s multidisciplinary team exists to help those
suffering from the wide range of sleep disorder symptoms, including:
- Sleep Apnea
- Insomnia
- Inability to fall asleep
- Loud snoring
- Frequent waking up in the middle of the night
- Excessive daytime sleeping
- Partial arousal from sleep
- Morning headaches
- Daytime irritability
- Poor concentration or memory
Our usual starting point in treating sleep disorders is a polysomnogram,
an advanced technological test that measures physiologic body processes
during sleep. This painless procedure monitors brain waves, heartbeat,
eye movements, leg movements, breathing and oxygen levels through sensors
connected to the body. The results of this test are then used to design
an individual treatment plan to return your body to a natural sleeping
schedule, restoring your energy, concentration and quality of life.
You can be referred to the BHS Sleep Center by any physician who suspects
you may be suffering from a sleep disorder.
