Introduction

Feeling groggy every morning? Your sleep may be silently broken.

If you regularly wake up feeling like you haven't slept at all, you're not alone. Millions suffer from undiagnosed sleep disorders that silently drain energy, affect focus, and even harm heart health. A sleep test might reveal what your body's been trying to tell you.


Why Do You Wake Up Tired?

It’s not just about how many hours you sleep—quality matters more.

Even 8 hours of sleep can feel useless if your body isn't reaching the restorative sleep stages. Causes include:

  • Sleep apnea

  • Chronic insomnia

  • Restless leg syndrome

  • Poor sleep hygiene (e.g. blue light, late caffeine)

  • Stress or underlying anxiety

  • Falling asleep during work or driving

If you check multiple boxes here, it’s time to consider a professional sleep assessment.


What Is a Sleep Test?

A simple test with powerful insights

A sleep test (polysomnography) records brain waves, oxygen levels, heart rate, breathing, and movement during sleep. It can be done:

  • At home with portable equipment

  • In a sleep clinic for comprehensive analysis


Sleep tests can detect conditions like:

  • Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)

  • REM behavior disorder

  • Narcolepsy

  • Periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD)
