Sleep Apnea and Snoring Treatment
Quality Sleep Apnea and Snoring Treatment for Missouri Patients in St. Louis and Festus.
Do you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep? Is your snoring affecting you or your partner? You are not alone. About 45% of all U.S. adults snore at least occasionally, and around 1 in every 4 are habitual snorers.
Are You Suffering with Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
When the upper airways become obstructed or inhibited, this can lead to sleep disruption, reduced quality sleep, and snoring. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a serious condition in which snoring can lead to a complete lack of airflow, or inhibited breathing while asleep. If you are experiencing obstructive sleep apnea, your bed partner may hear a break in snoring followed by a loud gasp for air and further snoring.
