Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a potentially life threatening condition that is more common than generally recognized. Over 20 million Americans suffer from OSA and they don’t even know it!

Symptoms include: Snoring, Large Neck Size, High Blood Pressure, Obesity, Interrupted Sleep, Daytime Fatigue, Lack of Concentration, Morning Headaches, Sexual Dysfunction.

If you have any of these symptoms, it is important to find their causes and treat them as soon as possible. While symptoms by themselves may seem common and little cause for concern, if left untreated, sleep disorders can lead to heart attacks, strokes, and even death. Other long term physical and psychological complications can include obesity, diabetes, depression, poor work performance and strained personal relationships.

If you think that you suffer from SLEEP APNEA, contact your healthcare professional.
