Our expert nurse practitioners conduct thorough assessments to understand the root-causes of your sleeping difficulties and develop your personalised treatment plan.
CBT-I is a highly effective, non-pharmacological treatment for chronic insomnia. Our trained therapists, including Mary Roberts and Erfan Nasheri, work with you to identify and change thoughts and behaviours that are interfering with your sleep. This may include sleep restriction, stimulus control, relaxation techniques, and cognitive restructuring to help you develop healthier sleep patterns.
When appropriate, our integrative nurse practitioners can prescribe and manage personalised sleep medications, including innovative compounded medications not easily accessible in Australia. We take a careful approach, considering the benefits and potential side effects, and often use medications as a short-term solution while working on long-term behavioural and wellbeing interventions.
Our circadian rhythm specialists help realign your body's internal clock with your desired sleep schedule. This may involve light therapy, melatonin supplementation, and lifestyle adjustments to strengthen your natural sleep-wake cycle.
We offer various stress reduction and relaxation strategies tailored to improve sleep. These may include mindfulness meditation, progressive muscle relaxation, guided imagery, and breathing exercises designed to calm your mind and prepare your body for sleep.
Our sleep coaches work with you to optimise your sleep environment and routines. This includes guidance on creating a sleep-conducive bedroom, developing consistent sleep schedules, and managing factors like diet, exercise, and screen time that can impact sleep quality.
Our nutritionists provide personalised dietary advice to support healthy sleep. This may include recommendations on timing of meals, foods that promote sleep, and guidance on managing caffeine and alcohol intake.
Recognising that insomnia can often be a symptom of other health issues, we take a holistic approach to identify and treat underlying conditions such as sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome, chronic pain, or hormonal imbalances that may be disrupting your sleep.
We utilise advanced sleep tracking technologies and apps to help you monitor your sleep patterns and progress. These tools can provide valuable insights and help you stay motivated as you work towards better sleep.
