Sleep Apnea Pillows

Sleep is necessary for survival. Most healthy people spend about a third of the day sleeping which means we spend about one third of our life in the bed. Scientists discovered that people can survive longer without food than without sleep. Sleep gives the body a rest and allows it to prepare for the next day. Every person needs about 7-8 hours sleep per day.

Sleep apnea is a serious condition that causes disruption to breathing during sleep.   If it goes untreated there can be serious consequences. Many doctors advice to sleep in the side position – it is doubly beneficial to clearer breathing. Medical professionals developed special therapeutic pillows designed to help keep a person on their side while sleeping. If you have sleep apnea, you do not want to sleep on your back. It is recommended to select a special therapeutic pillow which can relieve sleep apnea.

If you select the right pillow, it can open up blocked airways and lessen snoring and sleep apnea.

Patients with sleep apnea often report chronic headaches, drowsiness, memory lapses, and dysfunction during daily activities. Sleep apnea occurs when a patient's airway becomes blocked during sleep by relaxed throat muscles, excess weight, enlarged tonsils, or a very small throat. There is no known cure for sleep apnea, but it is highly treatable with CPAP.
