What Is Insomnia?
Insomnia is a common sleep disorder that makes it difficult to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake up feeling refreshed. It can be short-term (acute) or long-term (chronic), and it often results from factors such as stress, hormonal imbalance, poor sleep habits, medications, or medical conditions. At Dreamland Health & Wellness, we look beyond symptoms to uncover the root cause, helping patients achieve consistent, high-quality sleep without dependence on sedatives.
Our Approach to Treating Insomnia
Treatment for insomnia begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your sleep patterns, lifestyle habits, medical history, and stress levels. Using this information, we develop a customized plan that may include behavioral sleep therapy, relaxation training, and lifestyle and dietary recommendations, and, if necessary, targeted medical treatments. Some patients may benefit from advanced therapies that help regulate the body’s circadian rhythm and improve natural melatonin production. Our holistic approach promotes sustainable, long-term results and healthy sleep habits.
