By Dr. Jessica Warnecke, PT, DPT, OCS Did you know that only 21% of Americans get the recommended seven to eight hours of sleep each night (Breus, 2011)? We’ve been told from a young age the importance of getting your rest and going to bed in a timely manner, yet still so many people get an average of six or less hours of sleep per night. The older we get, and the busier we get, the more factors in life we have that can keep us from going to bed early, but learning to balance all these events and get a decent night’s rest can lead to great health benefits.
