The Root Cause Medicine Approach to Sleep Health 

In integrative and longevity medicine, the focus isn’t on masking symptoms but on uncovering and addressing the root causes of your sleep disturbances. Our personalized, functional medicine approach looks beyond short-term fixes like sleep aids and prescription drugs. We understand that every individual is unique, and so are the factors that affect their sleep. 

Our team of experts uses advanced diagnostic testing to identify the underlying imbalances in your body that may be contributing to sleep issues. From hormone imbalances and nutrient deficiencies to chronic inflammation, poor sleep position, and stress, we aim to find the root cause and create a tailored plan for better sleep. This isn’t a cookie-cutter approach; it’s a personalized journey toward improved sleep and overall health.

Integrative & Holistic Solutions to Support Better Sleep 

We offer a range of holistic sleep solutions to help you achieve restorative sleep, addressing the underlying causes of poor sleep rather than just treating the symptoms: 

• Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy ( BHRT ): As we age, hormone levels can fluctuate, leading to sleep issues like insomnia or waking up frequently during the night. BHRT helps restore balance, supporting more restful and consistent sleep.

• Nutrition: Proper nutrition is essential for sleep health. Our functional nutrition experts design personalized nutrition plans to address deficiencies and imbalances that can interfere with sleep quality. 

• Massage Therapy: Chronic pain, stress, and muscle tension can all contribute to sleep disturbances. Regular massage therapy promotes relaxation, eases discomfort, and improves circulation, leading to better sleep. 

• Acupuncture : Acupuncture has been shown to improve sleep by reducing stress, balancing the nervous system, and addressing chronic pain. Our acupuncture experts tailor treatments to each individual’s needs, helping to promote deep, restful sleep.

• Supplements: Natural supplements such as magnesium, melatonin, and adaptogenic herbs are often recommended to address deficiencies or imbalances that interfere with sleep. Your holistic sleep specialist will create a customized supplement regimen to support your sleep health. 

FAQs

What lifestyle changes can I make to improve my sleep quality?

Small shifts in your routine can make a big difference. Establishing a regular sleep schedule, minimizing screen time before bed, and creating a calming bedtime environment can all help support a more restful night’s sleep.

What are the signs that my sleep issues might be related to a medical condition?

If you experience consistent trouble falling or staying asleep, frequent waking throughout the night, or feel overly tired despite getting a full night’s sleep, you may benefit from talking with a specialist at our health center. Addressing underlying health factors can improve your sleep quality.

Are there specific foods I should avoid before bedtime to enhance sleep?

Yes, foods and drinks high in caffeine, sugar, or heavy fats may disrupt sleep patterns. Limiting these items, especially in the evening, may promote deeper, more restful sleep.

What are the long-term benefits of using holistic treatments for sleep compared to traditional medications?

Holistic treatments may offer sustainable and balanced approaches to sleep by focusing on the root causes of sleep issues rather than short-term relief. These methods often support the body’s natural rhythms, leading to lasting improvements. Sleep loss can truly cause you pain, but the experts at Nava Health are here to provide natural and functional solutions.

What specific nutrients or vitamins should I focus on for better sleep health?

Magnesium, melatonin, and certain B vitamins have been associated with promoting healthy sleep. Incorporating these nutrients, whether through diet or supplements, may support restful sleep, though we recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for guidance.

How can I effectively communicate my sleep challenges to my doctor?

Sharing details about your sleep routine, any lifestyle changes, and how your sleep quality impacts your daily life can be very helpful. Clear communication with your doctor about specific symptoms, such as difficulty falling asleep, frequent waking, or waking up feeling unrefreshed, allows for a more personalized treatment plan.

How can I maintain the progress I make in sleep management over the long term?

Consistency is key. Continue any helpful practices you’ve developed, such as keeping a regular sleep schedule and practicing relaxation techniques. Regular check-ins with your sleep management provider may also help you stay on track and adjust as needed.
