The clocks are about to fall back next month — an extra hour of sleep sounds great, right? It’s also the perfect reminder to check in on your sleep health. Trouble falling asleep, waking up too early, increased snoring, or feeling exhausted despite a full night in bed can quietly take a toll on your health.
Poor sleep isn’t just inconvenient — it's linked to more than 170 health conditions, including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. Even minor disruptions to your sleep schedule can affect your metabolism, immune system, and overall well-being.
The first step is understanding what happens while you sleep. The Holy Name Center for Sleep Medicine offers in-depth sleep studies to diagnose everything from insomnia to sleep apnea. You can choose from an in-center study in a comfortable, hotel-like environment or a convenient at-home study — both are designed to help you and your doctor create a treatment plan that restores restful sleep.
“Our goal is simple: to help patients sleep better and improve their overall health,” says Dr. Theophanis Pavlou, a pulmonologist and sleep specialist at Holy Name. “Better sleep isn’t just about feeling rested — it’s about preventing serious long-term health issues. Once we analyze the results of a sleep study we can create treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs."
As the seasons change, don’t let poor sleep undermine your well-being. Use the upcoming time change as a reminder to make sleep a priority. Better sleep today can lead to more energy, focus, and good health tomorrow.
