Specialized certification in sleep positioning, alignment, and pain-aware sleep support.
This certification is designed for professionals who want to become the go-to expert in sleep posture, ergonomics, and comfort-related sleep challenges. You’ll learn how to coach clients through safe, restorative sleep positioning — including side, back, pregnancy, PAP use, and special cases — using evidence-based principles that reduce strain and improve recovery.
The SPECS specialization focuses on the mechanical and biomechanical factors that influence sleep quality, pain, breathing, and morning stiffness. It’s ideal for practitioners who want a targeted, high-impact skill set they can apply immediately within their existing scope of practice.
Many professionals begin here when their primary interest is ergonomics, pain management, or positioning-related sleep concerns. This content is also included as a dedicated module within the Certified Sleep Coach program.
