Sleep Coaching

When can you request sleep coaching? 

Do you have trouble falling asleep, wake up frequently during the night, or feel tired and irritable during the day due to poor sleep quality? Sleep problems can have a negative impact on both your physical and mental well-being.Goodsleep isn’t a luxury—it’s an essential foundation for a healthy and resilient life.

Why can sleep coaching help?

Sleep problems are often caused by a combination of factors. That’s why a sleep coach looks beyond just the night itself. Together with you, we analyze your sleep patterns and lifestyle to identify the underlying causes and contributing factors of your sleep problem. Our physical therapists are trained according to the latest scientific insights on sleep and use methods proven to be effective. This is how we help you reduce or even completely resolve your sleep problem.

Within five to six sessions, you’ll be waking up feeling rested and energized again.
The sessions consist of:
  • Personalized Sleep Analysis: Together, we’ll identify the cause of your sleep problems
  • Practical tips: No vague advice, just concrete guidance you can put into practice right away.
  • A sustainable approach: Improving your sleep hygiene and habits with a focus on the long term.
  • Improved quality of life: Better sleep means more energy, a stronger immune system, a more positive mood, and relief from physical symptoms.

Our physical therapists have been trained bySlaap Opleiding Nederland, the leading training institute in the field of sleep health. Thanks to their accredited, practice-oriented training, they are able to provide you with the best possible care. 

Whether a sleep coaching program is covered depends on your supplemental insurance plan. We recommend that you contact your health insurance provider for more information. After each session, you will receive an invoice from us, which you can easily submit yourself.
