Ron - Interview 24
>>
Ron has tried several different strategies over the years to help with his sleep and has found that relaxation techniques work the best.
Ron is a retired Chairman/Managing Director. Ron has a number of health problems, some of which interfere with his sleep, but he tries to keep fit and goes to the local sports centre on a regular basis. He recently visited his doctor about his sleep because he was often waking at 3 am in the morning and was unable to get back to sleep after that.
