Validated Sleep Science
Sleep science includes the scientific disciplines that relate to poor quality sleep and the many related aspects of health. Its central focus is on sleep problems, disorders and their treatment and prevention.
Today, there are more than 70 recognized sleep disorders. Treatment and prevention can be grouped into categories:
- Sleep surface advancements
- Pharmaceuticals and medications
- Behavioral /psycho-therapeutic treatments
- Rehabilitation / management
- Other treatments
Sleep medicine is a sub-specialty within the disciplines of internal medicine, family medicine, pediatrics, otolaryngology, psychiatry and neurology in the U.S.
