Good sleep is critical for both brain and body health. Sleep deprivation can negatively affect your immune system and increase inflammation in the body, making you more vulnerable to illness. Getting adequate rest enables the body to repair itself. And when you’re tired, you can’t function at your best. Sleep helps us think more clearly, have quicker reflexes and focus better.

Staffed by board-certified sleep medicine physicians and registered sleep technologists, Southwoods Sleep Centers offer private, safe sleep testing suites and accommodations that will make your visit comfortable and restful.

An overnight sleep test helps identify sleep disorders and measure various sleep stages. Small sensors measure brain waves, muscle movements, eye movements, breathing, heart rate, leg activity and snoring. This test is used to help reach a diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.
If you suspect you have a sleep-related disorder, you can schedule a consultation and our sleep specialists will help determine what testing is needed. You can also contact your primary care physician to discuss and they can coordinate your referral.
