[edit] Facilities

[edit] The Sleep Clinics

The Sleep Clinics are owned and managed by CSI, to diagnose patients with sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, restless leg syndrome and insomnia. There are four sleep clinics with a total of 15 beds available. Patients stay overnight in the Sleep Clinic, where their sleep is monitored and measured by state-of-the-art polysomnography equipment. [2] The method of sleep screening has proven to be a cost-effective way to improve health and wellness.

[edit] The Insomnia Center

The Insomnia Center at CSI is the only independent insomnia clinic in the United States and is focused on helping patients achieve better health through better sleep. The institute also doesn't look like a hospital. The atmosphere is spa-like, with candles on the walls, dimmed lights and floral scents wafting through the office. [3]

[edit] The Research Center

The Research Center designs and directs key research in sleep medicine and has been awarded research projects by medical device and pharmaceutical companies, the federal government and notable health foundations. The center conducts both investigator-initiated research in response to current scientific trends in the field of sleep medicine, as well as industry/pharmaceutical driven research. [4]
