Better Sleep, Better Life
At SomnoCare, our primary mission is to maximize healthspan – and it all starts with your sleep. Rather than one of several pillars of health, the (vast) body of scientific literature clearly reveals sleep to be more a keystone. It is a central and foundational element that supports all aspects of human physiology.
As such, the first step in maximizing health span, is necessarily the optimization of sleep (and circadian health). Without this fundamental base, achieving optimal fitness (metabolic, physical, mental & emotional) is largely impossible – and the risk of chronic disease increases significantly over time.
As a simple screen, if you do not feel well-rested despite regularly getting sufficient time in bed (7-9h), then your likelihood of having a sleep disorder (such as obstructive sleep apnea) is not low, and thus merits evaluation. The added presence of daytime sleepiness, snoring, teeth grinding/clenching overnight, frequent urination at night, high blood pressure, or blood sugar issues only further increase the likelihood of sleep pathology.
At SomnoCare, we offer state-of-the-art in-home sleep testing that is delivered to your door, and can be self-applied in roughly 30 minutes. In-home level-2 polysomnography (L2-PSG) provides a level of detail equivalent that of an in-hospital level-1 sleep study (L1 PSG), but from the comfort of your own home. As compared to a night in the sleep lab, the L2-PSG allows for a sleep assessment that is convenient, comfortable, and more representative of a typical night in bed.

What is Healthspan?
Healthspan is commonly defined as the period of life spent in good health, free from chronic diseases and aging-related disabilities.
While the average Canadian’s lifespan is approximately 82, it is estimated that the last 9.2 years of life are spent with a quality of life that is below expectations.
Fortunately, this “lifespan – healthspan gap” can be decreased (with net increase in life expectancy) with key lifestyle interventions – optimization of sleep being the easiest and most impactful of all.
The other key interventions for maximizing healthspan are proper nutrition, regular exercise, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, and positive social connection.
Take Control of Your Health
At SomnoCare, we are dedicated to transforming lives through optimization of sleep and then the other fundamentals of health.
Our approach is evidence-based, personalized, and pragmatic with a focus on time efficiency to ensure long-term sustainable behavioural change. Education is prioritized throughout this process, as we aim to empower individuals with the necessary knowledge and skills to take charge of their own health.
Comprehensive Sleep Testing
We provide high-quality in-home sleep tests, offering a convenient and accurate way to identify and diagnose sleep disorders without the need for a night in a sleep laboratory. Ideally, your sleep test should be done prior to sleep consultation.
Comprehensive Clinical Assessment
Our clinical appointments at SomnoCare focus not just on treating sleep-apnea, but all aspects of your sleep and circadian health. To accomplish these goals, our appointments are 30-50% longer than those provided by typical sleep clinics. These standard sleep clinic appointments are primarily focused on the treatment of sleep apnea and do not take the time to help you with the behavioural changes require to optimize your circadian health (and thus your healthspan).
