When your spouse delicately expresses that sleeping with you is
like sharing a bed with a Rockettes hopeful, or that in between
your ocean-liner-like snores, he or she contemplates dialing 911
due to your intermittent cessation of breath, you're among a
reported 80 percent of adults who have a sleep disorder. According
to the National Sleep Foundation, sleep deprivation and
fatigue-related error cause more than $100 billion in damages
annually in the United States, and is figured to contribute to more
than 100,000 transportation crashes alone.
With an increased awareness of sleep apnea, insomnia,
restless-leg syndrome and 81 other known nocturnal disorders,
millions of Americans have realized the importance of therapeutic
intervention. Among the products for facilitating a good
night's sleep are Origins' Sensory Therapy
"sleep" line of bath soak, tea and pillow mist for the
rejuvenation of a society shunning the "fast-lane"
lifestyle.
