Sleep Optimisation

Sleep optimisation is for individuals who want to improve sleep quality, recovery and long-term health — even if they don’t have a diagnosed sleep disorder. It focuses on understanding your unique sleep patterns and aligning sleep with your lifestyle, biology and goals.

 

You may benefit from sleep optimisation if you:

  • Track your sleep using wearables such as Oura, WHOOP or Apple Health
  • Feel you are sleeping enough but not recovering well
  • Want to improve energy, focus, mood or physical performance
  • Have irregular schedules, frequent travel or high stress
  • Are interested in longevity and long-term health optimisation
  • Want expert interpretation of your sleep data and practical guidance

 

We translate your sleep data into personalised, evidence-based strategies to improve sleep quality, circadian rhythm alignment and daytime performance.

FAQs

No referral is required. Patients can book directly for any sleep concern, whether you’re struggling with insomnia, snoring, daytime fatigue or simply want to optimise your sleep. Doctors are welcome to refer, but it’s not a requirement.

Most South African medical aids do cover consultations at standard rates, and many also cover home sleep testing depending on the plan and scheme rules. We will provide the necessary codes and documentation so you can claim back directly from your medical aid. Coverage varies, so we encourage patients to confirm benefits with their scheme.

A home sleep test is a small, easy-to-use device delivered to your home anywhere in South Africa. You sleep with it for one night, and it measures breathing, airflow, oxygen levels and sleep disruptions. For diagnosing sleep apnoea, home testing is highly accurate, widely used internationally and far more comfortable than a hospital-based sleep study.

Yes. We offer full virtual care, including initial consultations, follow-ups, insomnia treatment (CBT-I) and sleep optimisation programmes. If a sleep test is needed, we courier the device to you and review the results online — making our services accessible anywhere in the country.
