Today is World Sleep Day.
Recovery isn’t just about the exercises you do in the clinic or the gym.
Sleep is where much of the real repair happens.
During sleep:
• the brain clears metabolic waste
• muscles repair and adapt
• the nervous system shifts out of stress mode and also processes new habits / information
Consistently poor sleep is linked with higher injury risk, slower healing, and reduced performance.
If recovery feels slower than expected, sleep is often one of the first places worth looking.
Have you noticed your body and movement feels better after a good night’s sleep?
