FROM CLASSROOM TO PITCH

Dr. Saagar Patel

MBBS, BSC(Hons)

Medicine, performance, and leadership are at the heart of my passions. Whether it’s studying these fields or collaborating with high-performance teams to enhance their outcomes, I have dedicated my career to mastering and contributing to them.

Clinically, I am one of only two sleep consultants in the region. Within the NHS, I specialise in treating patients with Sleep-Disordered Breathing. Beyond this, I have built and led private businesses from startup to industry leaders, focusing on a comprehensive approach to sleep health.

One of my key ventures, Performance Sleep, was founded to explore the intersection of sleep and elite athletic performance. Through my work with individual athletes, as well as national and international teams, I have helped competitors at all levels optimize their recovery and unlock their full potential.

Bedroom Management

  • Temperature Control – maintain the bedroom at a colder temperature to assist with regulation overnight.
  • Quiet – keep the bedroom in a part of the house that is as quiet as possible.
  • Avoid distractions – take out all the distractions in the bedroom. Remove as much technology from the room as possible.
  • Don’t nest – avoid food and drink in the bedroom.
  • Use a low lit alarm clock – do not use your phone.

Electronics: How Do They Affect Sleep Performance?

  • Keep out of the bedroom as much as possible.
  • Avoid Electronics 30 minutes before bedtime.
  • Use can delay sleep onset time – if possible, charge your phone outside of the bedroom.
  • Avoid using the phone as an alarm clock- not a case of blue light affecting sleep, but a distraction to sleep. Even if it is on vibrate, it is still a distraction.
  • TVs – problem in hotels. The “Love Island” disease – you don’t have to watch everything live, if you can record and watch later then do that.

Sleep Coaching

Personalised or team based sleep coaching. Working with professional sports teams and individuals has allowed us to coach the best to reach the performance they demand. Coaching you through your sleep goals allows us to ensure you get to where you need to be both on and off the pitch.
