INTRODUCTION

Insomnia is one of the most common health risk factors in the population as well as in clinical practice, which is associated with genes, neurons, environment, behavior, physiology, etc. (Buysse, 2013; Harvey et al, 2014). Insomnia has gradually become a prevalent phenomenon in fast-paced urban life. Insomnia occurs among individuals of different ages (Johnson et al, 2006; Kryger, 2006), and symptoms occur in approximately 33–50% of the adult population (Ancoli-Israel and Roth, 1999). Insomnia is the most prevalent and accounts for almost half of all sleep disorders (15% of the whole population) (Cao et al, 2017). Due to the complexity of the neural system that controls sleep, it is a great challenge to accurately diagnose and treat insomnia. For insomnia management and improvement, it is critical to develop a set of comprehensive sleep valuation as well as following therapies (Kapur et al, 2017). This review summarizes the recent progress in sleep quality monitoring and non-drug sleep improvement, with a comprehensive analysis on the related advantages and limitations, trying to conclude effective suggestions for sleep problems improvement in general
