Lifestyle Changes Can Make a Difference

Our experienced sleep specialists recognize the importance of lifestyle changes in managing obstructive sleep apnea. Simple adjustments such as regular exercise, avoiding alcohol and sedatives before bedtime, and even changing sleep positions can make a significant difference in reducing symptoms of OSA.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy

CPAP therapy is a tried-and-true method for treating obstructive sleep apnea. A CPAP machine delivers a steady stream of air through a mask to keep your airway open while you sleep. This prevents breathing pauses and allows you to enjoy uninterrupted sleep.

On the Cutting-Edge: Inspire® Therapy & the Airlift™ Procedure

Inspire® therapy and the Airlift™ procedure are innovative treatment options for patients who haven't found relief with CPAP or other treatments. They are both surgical implants. Inspire® is a device that stimulates the muscles responsible for keeping the airway open to help prevent airway collapse during sleep and improves breathing. The Airlift™ procedure is a medical implant beneath the chin that stabilizes and opens upper airways to improving sleep and breathing.

Considering Surgical Interventions

In some cases, surgical procedures may be recommended to address structural issues contributing to obstructive sleep apnea. Surgical options include removing excess tissue from the throat, repositioning the jaw, and correcting structural abnormalities.
