What Are Sleep Disorders?
Sleep disorders are conditions that disrupt normal sleep patterns, making it difficult to fall asleep, stay asleep, or achieve restorative rest. They can affect physical health, mental well-being, and daily performance if left untreated.
Why Seek Sleep Disorder Evaluation?
Loud snoring or pauses in breathing during sleep (possible sleep apnea)
Daytime sleepiness, fatigue, or poor concentration
Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep (insomnia)
Unusual movements or behaviors during sleep (parasomnias)
Restless or uncomfortable legs at night (restless legs syndrome)
Shift work–related or circadian rhythm disturbances
