About the procedure

Sleep is the most underestimated recovery parameter. Most clients of the programme arrive with chronic deprivation masked by caffeine and adrenaline. Assessing sleep at the diagnostic stage allows the real picture to be seen.

Methodology: 2 nights of wearable tracker (Oura ring or equivalent) recording duration, efficiency, stages (REM/deep/light), arousal frequency, nocturnal HRV and skin temperature. In parallel, the client completes the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale.

If signs of sleep apnoea are identified (snoring, breathing pauses, morning headaches, BMI above 30), a screening polysomnography with pulse oximetry is ordered. On confirmation, the client is referred to a specialist and the retreat programme is adjusted.

Results are discussed on day 3 of the programme and form the input parameters for sleep biohacking at Villa 06.

FAQ

What if I turn out to have apnoea?

Polysomnography is ordered, followed by referral to a sleep physician. Retreat continues with the relevant limitations.
