Clinical Trial Description

Insomnia is a sleep disorder defined by persistent difficulty in initiating, maintaining or consolidating sleep. It can also be defined by early morning awakenings or having a dissatisfied sleep quality, even if you have plenty of time and a suitable environment to a restful sleep. This difficulty sleeping must be experienced at least 3 nights per week, for 3 consecutive months. This can often lead to symptoms such as fatigue, irritability and difficulty concentrating during the day. Both compression of 4th ventricle and diaphragmatic techniques have been proven to help lower the tone of the sympathetic nervous system, restoring a normal respiratory mechanism. It is anticipated that the combination of 4th ventricle technique and diaphragmatic breathing may result in a significant reduction in insomnia symptoms, providing study participants with a notable improvement in the quality of sleep and, therefore, in their general well-being. ;
