The Casa Colina Sleep Center is designed to help people of all ages overcome a variety of sleep difficulties. This unique program, located on Casa Colina's Pomona campus, offers a luxurious bedroom setting where state-of-the-art diagnostic testing is conducted by a licensed sleep technologist. Painless sensors are attached to the patients body and head to measure brain waves, muscle and eye movements as well as snoring, breathing, heart rate and leg movements. A physician who specializes in sleep medicine evaluates the test results before recommending treatment.
