Restless Leg Syndrome is defined as an irresistible urge to move the legs during sleep, often accompanied by unusual or unpleasant sensations that may be described as creeping, tugging or pulling.

Sleep Apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a health condition characterized by a repetitive stopping or slowing of breathing that can occur hundreds of times during the night. This often leads to poor sleep quality and excessive daytime sleepiness. Risks of untreated sleep apnea include high blood pressure, stroke, and heart disease. It is estimated that 1 in 5 Americans have at least mild OSA.

Sleepwalking

Sleepwalking originates during sleep and results in people walking or performing other complex behaviors, often with little or no memory after it happens.

Snoring

Snoring is a common problem among all ages and genders, characterized as noisy breathing during sleep. People are generally unaware of their snoring, and must rely on the observations of their bed-partners. Although snoring alone is not serious, it is a symptom of sleep apnea, which is a serious condition that requires medical attention.
