Half of all adults now complain of trouble sleeping, up from just one-third a few years ago. At least 30 million adults endure the stress of severe, chronic insomnia. One reason is its ubiquitous nature.
Most medical schools provide less than one hour of training on sleep disorders.
This treats the symptom, not the problem. Medication may allow a person to achieve proper sleep, but once the person stops taking medication, the insomnia symptoms return. The Behavioral Medicine Insomnia Program is based on 10 years of research and clinical practice by Gregg D. Jacobs, Ph.D., at Harvard Medical School. This drug-free program is the only one scientifically proven to help insomniacs become normal sleepers. The success of this program is based on a central theme that insomnia can only be treated by addressing all of the underlying causes.
