problems - worrying about past or future happenings - illness
in the family - problems at work - physical problems - pain
in various parts of the body - a lumpy or uncomfortable place
to sleep - the wrong temperature, too hot or too cold - needing
to go to the toilet in the night - poor sleep patterns due
to Increased tension in connective tissue - trauma - shift
work - disturbed physical environment noise - partner on shifts
etc
Patients may have difficulty getting off to sleep or may
wake up in the middle of the night. They may wake up and stay
awake for a long time or wake frequently for short periods
of time.
TREATMENT
If there is a physical problem or pain this must obviously
be addressed first. If there is a stress problem talking it
over may well be useful.
By using Manual
Lymph Drainage and
Connective
Tissue Manipulation to treat the problem tension in the
connective tissue can be released and the normal function
of sleep control can be restored.
