Sleep Disturbances

Sleep disturbances occur throughout the night without you even knowing it...

Even though you were sleeping all through the night you may be experiencing sleep disturbances. There are over 70 different types of sleep disorders and are all categorized in three areas lack of sleep, disturbed sleep, and excessive sleep.

Sleep is needed for your body to function properly...

Sleep disturbances occur throughout the night without you even knowing it, this can be caused by many different problems.

Keeping your body in shape, dieting, removing caffeine, and developing a good lifestyle can correct these problems. Everyone is different, and Delaware Spine can help.

There are stages in your sleep that your body must go through to achieve a good night sleep.
This cycles over and over throughout the night.

5 to 10 Minutes

Stage 1

Light sleep and relaxation of the muscles. (Transition to sleep). Can be awakened easily.

10 to 15 Minutes

Stage 2

Activity in the brain slows and eye movement stops. Your body is preparing for deep sleep.

15 to 20 Minutes

Stage 3

Brains waves become slow (delta waves) and small quick waves occur. Also referred to as deep sleep.

Lasts for 10 Minutes

Stage 4

(REM) Rapid Eye Movement – dreams occur. Usually, REM sleep happens 90 minutes after you fall asleep

Each sleep cycle usually takes about an hour and a half to complete.
During the deep stages of NREM sleep, the body repairs and regrows tissues, builds bone and muscle, and strengthens the immune system. Sleep is needed for your body to function properly, so take care of yourself and do what it takes to achieve a good night sleep.

I have been having issues with my lower back for the past two years. It had gotten to the point that the pain would take my breath away whenever I would turn or bend to the side. After just one visit with Dr Cattie at Delaware Spine, I had relief! Dr Cattie provided me with tips to ensure I wasn't re-aggrevating the source of my pain as well as a plan to get me to pain free! I'm grateful to finally have a plan and cant say enough wonderful things about Delaware Spine!

Dr. Cattie is a very caring and enjoyable Chiropractor!
Caring, I know because he listens and adjusts what he does to fit your needs not the "one size fits all adjustment with him".
Enjoyable, because he is easy to talk to. And you can feel that he cares about what he does, not the rush you through to make the next dollar Doctor!! Makes you trust him!
I have a severly herniated disc. It was real bad for a time, he changed up what he did till we found what worked. Talked to me about things to do and try to make it manageable. Sent me to get mri and then on to a back doctor to get my options. Of course back doc said surgery. Dr. Caddie and back doc set a plan in motion for no surgery. i can now say pain free! Cant say enough good about him!
I have been getting Chiropractic care for 28 years now. Same doc for 20 years then 6 looking for another good one after mine passed away.
His new office is very nice and close proximity to my work, so I am real happy!

I came to Delaware Spine with severe mid and lower back pain. Through weekly adjustments and techniques, Dr. Cattie was able to return my back to a pain free state. I cannot thank him enough for this. Throughout the whole experience he always took his time and was very professional and informational. I highly recommend Delaware Spine to anyone with back issues. Thanks again!

I had the most wonderful experience at Delaware Spine. The staff is amazing. Dr. Cattie is extremely educated and knows exactly what he’s talking about. I have had back pain for a while now and felt immediate relief! I can’t wait to go back for my next appointment! I would highly suggest Delaware Spine to anyone I know.

Dr. Kevin is no ordinary doctor. He sincerely listens to his patients, understands their concerns, truly cares about not only their physical well-being, but social, spiritual, mental, and emotional health are just as important, and you feel that each and every visit. He constantly rearranges his schedule for the betterment of his patients, because he gets that life happens to all of us, and it's rarely convenient when you need him. You'll never leave a visit feeling anything less than whole, he's just that kind of guy.
