Introduction: No studies were encountered in the literature on the effects of traditional and complementary treatments on sleeping problems experienced by patients who underwent those procedures due to other health problems.
Objective: This study aims to determine sleep quality and the factors that affect it among patients presenting to traditional and complementary medicine centre due to various health problems.
Method: A total of 314 patients presenting to traditional and complementary medicine centres were included in this cross-sectional study. Data were obtained with a personal information form, the Cumhuriyet Subjective Sleep Quality Scale, and the Sleep Hygiene Index. The study was reported according to STROBE guidelines.
Results: The median Cumhuriyet Subjective Sleep Quality Scale score of the patients was 22 (IQR: 19) and the median Sleep Hygiene Index score was 25.00 (8.00). It was determined that gender, income, and daily sleep duration had statistically significant effects on sleep quality (p<0.05). It was reported by 42.6% of the patients who underwent acupuncture treatment, 37.5% of the hypnosis treatment patients, 40.3% of the cupping treatment patients, 52.4% of the ozone therapy patients, 42.9% of the mesotherapy patients, and 47.5% of the hirudotherapy patients that, compared to before, they had much better sleep after undergoing these treatments.
Conclusion: It was determined in this study that the sleep quality and sleep hygiene of the patients were good. Traditional and complementary therapies can be considered to improve patients' sleep quality and hygiene.
