Sleep is essential for our overall health and wellbeing, and getting enough of the right sleep is vital for maintaining physical and mental health. During sleep, the body repairs and regenerates tissue, strengthens the immune system by enabling specialised immune cells – T Cells – to work more efficiently at fighting infections, and restores energy levels, while also enhancing brain functions, such as memory consolidation, decision-making, problem-solving, and creativity, and playing a vital role in regulating our mood and emotions.
Sleep also improves our physical performance. It improves stamina, weight management, and influences the levels of hormones that control appetite and metabolism; sleep also reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

The Emma Sleep Consultancy

Participants are guided by Emma’s sleep experts as their sleep quality, sleep satisfaction and sleep knowledge are tested, measured and analysed.
Delivered to professional athletes at some of Europe’s best top-flight football clubs, as well as to employees at businesses around the world, Emma’s Sleep Consultancy is already delivering exceptional results. In May 2023, the company premiered its first documentary, which focuses on the Emma Sleep Consultancy. Three individuals — an athlete, a teacher, and a member of the military — narrate their journey and reveal the benefits.
“Our Sleep Consultancy is a testament to the power of sleep education for general health” says Theresa Schnorbach, Team Lead Sleep Research at Emma — The Sleep Company. “For example, professional footballers from Werder Bremen who participated in our five-week program improved their athletic performance by 17% and their sleep quality by 21%.
