Stellar Sleep, the First Digital Solution for Chronic Insomnia, Adds New Integrations with Fitbit, Oura Ring and Apple Health and Doubles Daily Programming to Help People End Their SleeplessnessSAN FRANCISCO, April 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stellar Sleep, which provides the first digital solution for chronic insomnia management, announced today that it has significantly upgraded the app with new features intended to help users more easily track their sleep and access content that will help improve their quantity and quality of sleep. More than 25 million Americans suffer from chronic insomnia - meaning sleep problems 3+ nights a week for 3+ months. For people suffering from chronic insomnia, superficial care advice (e.g., cutting coffee, reducing screen time, meditation, etc.) is not enough. Their insomnia is driven by deeper psychological challenges like unresolved anxiety, burnout or depression. The most effective treatment for chronic insomnia is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which addresses the root cause of insomnia and helps the patient re-learn how to sleep well again. Unfortunately, this type of therapy is inaccessible to most people: wait times for sleep therapists often exceed 12 months and insurance coverage is spotty, forcing patients to pay out of pocket for sessions that can cost thousands of dollars. There are only about 700 trained sleep therapists in the world, about 600 of whom are in the U.S. The Stellar Sleep app helps users break the insomnia cycleusing a proven, psychology-based methodology, and a clinical assessment of 500 users found to be 50 percent more effective than sleeping pills. A recent analysis of Stellar Sleep user data found that most saw a significant improvement in their sleep within 5 weeks. Launched in 2023, Stellar Sleep has helped more than 10,000 people make good sleep normal again. New April 2024 additions to Stellar Sleep include:
“I know from personal experience what a devastating impact chronic insomnia can have on a person,” said Wang. “Poor sleep permeates every facet of your life. Stellar Sleep is the app I wish I had three years ago. We’re excited to release these upgraded features, which we think will help expand our impact and help more people get better sleep.” Take a free sleep quiz and sign up for a one-week trial at stellarsleep.com.
