Insomnia Treatment Program
Insomnia - the inability to fall asleep or stay asleep - affects 1 out of every 3 adults in the U.S. Insomnia, however, is a treatable condition. The staff at the Insomnia Treatment Program can work with clients to identify and deal with those factors that cause their insomnia and help them sleep better.

A Non-Drug Technique

Past treatment has relied on the use of sleeping pills. While they may be effective for a short time, sleeping pills tend not to be effective for a longer period and have negative side effects. Today there are non-drug techniques that are very effective in treating people with chronic insomnia.

The Insomnia Treatment Program at Gaylord uses behavioral interventions or techniques that include:

  • decreasing the anxiety associated with going to sleep
  • developing conditioned responses to fall asleep in bed
  • decreasing daily stress to promote restful sleep
