What is Jet Lag?

The earth is divided into 24 time zones: time changes by one hour for every 150 degrees of travel east or west of the Greenwich meridian. Our bodies are programmed to be active and alert during the day and to sleep at night. Travelling across the earth's time zones disrupts these natural rhythms, resulting in extreme tiredness referred to as jet lag.

Jet lag can take several days to overcome, therefore our service can help you plan ahead to minimise jet lag. This treatment service is for patients who will be flying to another country where the time difference is more than three hours.

What are the symptoms of jet lag?

Symptoms of jet lag include:

  • extreme tiredness
  • insomnia
  • stomach upsets
  • aches and pains
  • disorientation

What else can I do to reduce the impact of jet lag?

When you arrive at your destination, going for a nap is the worst thing you can do, because it sets your body's rhythms back to home time. Staying active on arrival will help the body adjust to the new time zone. As eating and sleeping are your body's time indicators, it is also important to fit in with what the locals are doing when you arrive. Exposing yourself to as much daylight as possible might also be a good idea, because it has been shown that bright light can help to reset circadian rhythms.
