Abstract: Traditional medicinal herbs are increasingly used for practical finishes on textile materials for a healthier lifestyle. Medicinal herbs can be used for managing lifestyle diseases as they are safer to use and they do not cause any allergic reactions. One of the most common health problems in the modern society is sleep disorder. Conventional treatment causes dependency on the medicines which can lead to severe health care consequences in future. An alternative to this is the usage of herbal remedies which can positively influence the sleep pattern and improve the sleep quality. Herbal medicines when infused into eco-friendly textile materials can offer a promising natural alternative to conventional medical treatments. The research paper aims to study and optimize herbal ratios and their application to ecofriendly textile materials for developing herbal healthcare products and evaluate the performance of the developed products for alleviating the symptoms of sleep disorder.
