Do you have a clinic program for insomnia patients? Do you spend time describing the same sleep hygeine or cognitive behavioral therapies over and over to patients with sleep disorders?
Would you like to reduce the clinic time you currently devote to educating patients about these issues?
Dr. Krakow's books have been successfully used by sleep professionals, psychiatrists, primary care doctors and others as invaluable clinic time-savers. They are also easy reads for their patients.
One physician has kindly provided a testimonial describing how he uses Insomnia Cures:
"Dr. Krakow's Insomnia Cures is an integral component of my management of psychophysiologic insomnia. As a busy sleep clinician, I do not have the luxury of being able to meet with my insomnia patients on a weekly basis for six weeks in order to implement cognitive behavioral strategies. After making the diagnosis of psychophysiologic insomnia, I explain the pathophysiology of this disorder to the patient and outline a treatment regimen. I provide the patient with a copy of Dr. Krakow's book and ask the patient pay for the book. I emphasize that this book prescription is more important than any hypnotic prescription they have ever received. I prefer Dr. Krakow's book to others on CBT because of its conciseness and the brevity of each chapter. Patients actually read it! The book reinforces what I have told the patient. When the patient returns to see me, I ask which recommendations were the most helpful and which were not helpful in order to facilitate further discussion about their problem. I encourage other sleep physicians to consider this approach. "
