What is Sleep Apnea

Sleep Apnea Isn’t Just Snoring – It’s a Health Risk.

Discover how sleep apnea affects your health and how expert care can help you breathe and sleep better.

Understanding Sleep Apnea

Short Description:
Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. It disrupts your rest and puts stress on your heart, lungs, and brain, often without you even knowing it.

Key Facts:

  • Can cause loud snoring and gasping
  • Leads to poor sleep quality and fatigue
  • Increases risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes
  • Often goes undiagnosed for years

Common Signs of Sleep Apnea

Short Description:
If you have sleep apnea, your body may be sending you warning signals — even during the day.

Symptoms to Watch For:

  • Loud snoring or choking sounds during sleep
  • Pauses in breathing during the night
  • Excessive daytime sleepiness
  • Morning headaches or dry mouth
  • Difficulty concentrating or irritability
  • Restless or unrefreshing sleep

Types of Sleep Apnea

Short Descriptions with Visual Tabs or Icons:

  1. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): The most common form, caused by a blocked airway.
  2. Central Sleep Apnea: Caused by the brain failing to send proper breathing signals.
  3. Complex Sleep Apnea Syndrome: A combination of both obstructive and central types.
