Founded in the 1980s, The CMC Sleep Disorders Center is accredited by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and its focus on patient care has allowed us to grow from a single sleep lab into a leading provider of sleep and neurophysiology services. Our team offers an interdisciplinary program with a coordinated approach for a variety of sleep disorders and related conditions.
Drowsy Days and Dreamless Nights
There are many sleep disorders that can cause excessive daytime sleepiness or fatigue. Many times, patients are unaware that they are having sleep problems such as apnea or periodic limb movements during sleep that cause you to be tired during the day. Often, your bed partner may be aware of these problems, but, in some cases, the problems are subtle and can only be identified by a trained sleep specialist with proper testing.
Regardless of what is keeping you awake at night, we can treat any sleep disorder including:
Snoring and Sleep Apnea
Sleepwalking
Sleep talking
Nightmares
Bruxism (teeth grinding)
Rocking or head banging
Narcolepsy
Insomnia
Sweating during sleep
Mouth breathing
Restless Limb Syndrome
Trouble falling asleep

Sleep Evaluation
A personal sleep evaluation is the first step to sleeping better. A sleep evaluation begins with an office visit with one of our sleep specialists. During this visit, an extensive health history, physical exam and interview will be conducted. If possible, bring your bed partner along for the interview as they can answer questions about your sleep patterns that many times you cannot.
Sleep Study
A sleep study is called a Polysomnogram or PSG. These tests are performed in our sleep center in a quiet, peaceful hotel-like room where we can monitor your brain waves and several parameters to detect sleep disorders. There is no pain involved during a sleep study and every effort to maintain your normal sleep routing is made during your stay.
