How To Tackle Common Sleep Problems
26th October 2016
The clocks go back on Sunday, and we all get an extra hour in bed! For most of us, the prospect of more sleep is something to look forward to – and for half of us, it’s something we need.
About 50% of UK adults are sleep deprived (source). The causes for this are varied: stress, using smartphones before bed, and a snoring partner are some of the most common. Boots has a great range of products in store to help you drift off. Here’s our guide to tackling common sleep problems this winter.
You’re too stressed to sleep
Our busy modern lives are full of day-to-day stresses and anxieties. Whether it’s work, the daily commute, or a hundred different little things, stress and worry can make it impossible to just “switch off” and get a good night’s sleep.
Treat the problem naturally with alternative therapies from Boots. Oral drops, tablets, pillow spray and room spray can all help restless sleepers, or people who often experience sleep disturbances. Find the perfect one for you at Boots.
You snore
Snoring isn’t so much of a problem for you as it is for the people you live with. Over 40% of the UK adult population (source) snores at night – often keeping their partner or family awake. There are a wide range of products to combat snoring, from nasal strips to mouthpieces, throat sprays and nasal devices. Which one works for you will depend on the cause of your snoring. However, there is no guaranteed cure, so you may just have to get your household to invest in good quality earplugs! Fortunately, Boots supply those too.
You have to drag yourself out of bed every morning
Low mood, tiredness and fatigue can take their toll on all of us from time to time. As winter approaches, bringing cold weather and seasonal colds with it, many of us will be left feeling drained. Tackle your tiredness naturally with iron and vitamin formula, energy release tablets or alternative remedies. They could be just what you need to start your day right and help keep winter fatigue and illness at bay.
