The benefits of a good night’s sleep are huge. Studies suggest that getting enough sleep can aid productivity, help with junk food cravings and even prevent Alzheimer’s. Losing sleep, for whatever reason, means that we have less energy and may lead to problems at work and at home.
Sleep disorders can range from insomnia to sleep apnoea and require different specialists to help treat them. But figuring out who to go and see can be tricky, which is why we have come up with a short guide to help you:
- Sleep apnoea and snoring: a dentist who specialises in sleep apnoea or an ear, nose and throat specialist (ENT)
- Insomnia: a psychologist or psychiatrist
- Narcolepsy (hypersomnia): neurologist
- Sleepwalking (parasomnia): neurologist
