CPAP therapy

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy is a common and effective treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a Condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep due to airway blockages. CPAP devices deliver a steady stream of air through a mask, keeping the airway open and ensuring uninterrupted breathing throughout the night. This therapy helps reduce snoring, improves sleep quality, and prevents complications associated with untreated sleep apnea, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and daytime fatigue. While CPAP therapy is highly effective, some users may need time to adjust to wearing the mask and maintaining compliance.
