Sleep Apnea

Reclaim Restful Sleep with Sleep Apnea Solutions

Do you often feel drowsy during the day without any apparent cause? Does loud snoring or waking up breathless disrupt your sleep? If you resonate with these symptoms, you might be among the more than 12 million Americans affected by sleep apnea.

Understanding Sleep Apnea:

Sleep apnea is a condition where your breathing temporarily stops multiple times during sleep, sometimes as frequently as 20-30 times per hour. Each pause in breathing triggers a brief awakening as your brain responds to the lack of oxygen, prompting you to resume proper breathing. These awakenings are usually so brief that most people with sleep apnea don't recall them, often assuming they've had a restful night's sleep when, in reality, they have not. This constant cycle of wake-sleep, wake-sleep prevents deep sleep, leading to persistent drowsiness throughout the day.
