Restless Leg Syndrome
Aching or tingling sensation in the legs causing frequent movement. This serious condition can lead up to insomnia and periodic limb movement syndrome, which disrupts sleep and causes daytime drowsiness.

Narcolepsy & Other Hypersomnias
Narcolepsy is a disorder of the central nervous system that causes excessive daytime sleepiness even after a good night’s sleep. This disorder may also cause cataplexy, sleep paralysis or hallucinations before falling asleep.

Sleep Disorder Diagnosis
In order to correctly diagnosis a sleep disorder, your physician may order a sleep study. Sleep studies are done in a quiet, safe and comfortable setting at Residence Inn by Marriott, where you will stay overnight. Before you fall asleep, small sensors will be placed on the surface of the skin. While you sleep, a polysomnographic technologist located in a separate room will monitor your brain waves, muscle activity, breathing, heartbeat, oxygen levels and snoring. A physician who is board-certified in Sleep Disorders analyzes all of the data collected during your sleep.

Insurance Concerns
Most health insurance companies will cover the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders.
