Improving your sleep
October 5th 2023
According to the Sleep Health Foundation of Australia, about one in three Australian adults have difficulty getting a good night's sleep. Specifically, approximately 39% of Australians report experiencing some form of sleep disturbance, with 7.4% experiencing severe sleep disturbance. Poor sleep quality has been linked to a range of physical health issues in Australia, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, and weakened immune function.
​
Chiropractic treatment has been shown to be a potential solution for improving sleep quality and addressing these health issues. A study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics found that chiropractic adjustments can improve sleep quality in patients with insomnia.

Furthermore, chiropractic care can reduce pain and discomfort, which can help individuals sleep more comfortably. Chiropractors can also provide patients with advice on sleep hygiene, such as tips for creating a conducive sleep environment and establishing a consistent sleep routine.

If you are in Australia and experiencing sleep difficulties or physical health issues related to poor sleep quality, consider seeking help from one of our chiropractors at Aegle Health. We can provide a thorough evaluation of your symptoms and develop a personalised treatment plan to help improve your sleep and overall health.
