Abstract

As physiotherapists are well known for their health promotion role, sleep is no different from any other major aspect of health promotion in physical therapy. The importance of sleep extends beyond its impact on various body functions; it can impact rehabilitation outcomes among various populations commonly seen in the physical therapy practice. This chapter describes the role of physical therapists in promoting sleep health and wellness, and it describes conditions commonly seen in different physical therapy practice settings who suffer from poor sleep. It also discusses the evidence on the impact of sleep disturbances on rehabilitation outcomes, providing examples from various populations. The remaining sections in this chapter discuss the literature regarding common treatment strategies to improve sleep that can be utilized by physical therapists. There is much room for physical therapists to intervene in sleep management. With proper training and evidence-based practice, physical therapists are confidently capable of managing sleep disturbances among their patients.
