Sleep Deprivation Sleep gives the body time to rebuild damaged tissue and the brain time to replenish neurotransmitters like dopamine, which affects alertness. Sleeping poorly can have severe consequences. The Archives of Internal Medicine links sleep deprivation to heart disease. Poor sleep also causes fatigue, depression and poor concentration. Each year, sleep deprivation contributes to about 100,000 car accidents with 1,500 deaths. If you suffer from a sleep disorder, you are not alone. With over 84 classified sleep related disorders, it is estimated that more than 60 million Americans are affected, and many will go undiagnosed and untreated. There are many treatments available for Sleep Deprivation, ranging from medications, helpful books and support groups, psychotherapy and now Sound Wave Therapy (SWT). According to sleep researchers, you should spend one-third of your life sleeping. For an average lifetime, that equals nearly 24 years in bed. SWT is becoming more accepted by modern medicine everyday due to the mountain of scientific data that continues to be gathered and clearly indicating a HUGE ratio for success in treating people with Sleep deprivation. SWT is being seen in different forms and called different things with different levels of success all over the web. However, there is no SWT that combines these two elements that maximize success; The science of triggering brain waves using specifically designed frequencies that cause sleep related disorders and re-tuning them to relieve your disorder.

One of the reasons this combination hasn't been performed yet is partly due to the expense of hiring all the necessary musicians, writers, producers and then to find the road to work synergistically with the science behind beating Sleep Deprivation and other disorders. After years of research and months of work putting it all together the work has been completed and tested showing better results than what was originally expected!

'Music therapy promotes relaxation and sleep,' said Al Bumanis, director of communications for the American Music Therapy Association. 'It can substitute for medication and therefore translate into a decrease in the cost of medical care.' The High Price of Sleep Deprivation More Americans are burning the midnight oil -- and burning out on the job and on the road, with disastrous consequences. Not too long ago, in the days of the blue laws, the only people who worked on Sunday or at night were those in public service. Now, one can shop for groceries at 2 am or take the family pet in for its annual shots at midnight. Even in small-town America there is usually one store open around the clock. As we evolve into a 24-hour society, however, one must be cognizant that the human body clock (circadian rhythm) does not normally operate with such a high degree of flexibility. The body clock "sleeps" at night and "works" during the day. According to a recent National Sleep Foundation survey, nearly one in three Americans sleeps as few as 6 hours or less a night during the work week, with the majority averaging 7 hours of sleep a night. During the teens and twenties, our bodies require 8 to 10 hours of sleep a night. Thereafter, we need about 8 hours of sleep. Few people are really well rested with fewer than 7 hours of sleep a night. Up All Night Although a well-rested individual will spend only one third of his/her life asleep, our changing society seems to be demanding we spend even less time asleep. Twenty-four-hour industries are contributing to changes in what was once considered the norm, and for that, we are paying a steep price in fatigue-related accidents. Until recently, these incidents were largely unrecognized. The public is becoming aware of the problem, however, as fatigue-related deaths in the workplace and on the roads are beginning to make front-page news. Many accidents remain unreported because of a lack of training in the investigation of sleep/fatigue-related accidents. The medical community has been working on addressing this problem for years only to find its pleas unanswered. This situation is also affecting the very people poised to help resolve it-health professionals. Many health practitioners are required to work odd hours or double shifts, and medical interns are routinely assigned grueling 36-hour shifts. The future looks more promising, however, as more attention is paid to fatigue and excessive sleepiness in the workplace. This change has occurred largely because of the report by the National Commission on Sleep Disorders Research2 and the subsequent establishment of the National Center for Sleep Disorders Research within the National Institutes of Health. Insomnia, Primary - SYMPTOMS The predominant complaint is difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, or nonrestorative sleep, for at least 1 month. The sleep disturbance (or associated daytime fatigue) causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. The sleep disturbance does not occur exclusively during the course of Narcolepsy, Breathing-Related Sleep Disorder, Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorder, or a Parasomnia. The disturbance does not occur exclusively during the course of another mental disorder (e.g., Major Depressive Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, a delirium). The disturbance is not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, a medication) or a general medical condition. Circadian Rhythm Sleep Disorder - SYMPTOMS A persistent or recurrent pattern of sleep disruption leading to excessive sleepiness or insomnia that is due to a mismatch between the sleep-wake schedule required by a person's environment and his or her circadian sleep-wake pattern. The sleep disturbance causes clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. The disturbance does not occur exclusively during the course of another Sleep Disorder or other mental disorder. The disturbance is not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, a medication) or a general medical condition.
