Sleep Apnea and Snoring Therapy

The Dangers of Sleep Deprivation

Sleep is as essential to a healthy body as diet and exercise. In many cases, it’s more important, because without adequate sleep, the body can’t repair and re-energize itself, making it much harder to lead an active lifestyle. Research has also shown that sleep deprivation can even throw off a person’s appetite, causing them to crave sugary and salty foods while slowing down their metabolism.

A lack of sleep due to sleep apnea can also have drastic effects on the mind, causing a person to have trouble focusing, suffer memory loss, or experience mood swings and depression. Plus, a person who is consistently sleep deprived is also 3 times more likely to be in a moto vehicle accident!

Sleep apnea also has one specific symptom that many doctors call “the silent killer.” People who suffer from sleep apnea and don’t get treatment often suffer from elevated blood pressure, which is the leading risk factor for heart attack and stroke.

Overall, if you’re having issues sleeping, it’s extremely important that you get them addressed quickly.

How Sleep Apnea Treatment Can Help

Whether you snore, have been diagnosed with sleep apnea, or simply want an alternative treatment to your CPAP machine, you can dramatically benefit from oral appliance therapy from Dr. Striebel. With his experience and expertise, he’ll help you finally get the rest you need, and as a result, both your body and your mind will be better for it.

Better Sleep. Better Life.

If you’ve been diagnosed with sleep apnea, know that it’s actually the first step to getting the treatment you need. With the help of a custom-made oral appliance, you’ll be able to breathe comfortably throughout the night and achieve deeper, more restorative sleep. This will allow your mind to rest and your body to heal damage from the stresses of the day, both of which will contribute to a longer and healthier life.

Get Your Energy Back

One of the most common symptoms of sleep apnea is persistent fatigue despite sleeping for 8 hours. Lacking energy can affect every facet of your life, both personal and professional. People who don’t sleep well typically don’t have the energy to exercise regularly, and as a result, they put on more weight and become lethargic, which can worsen sleep apnea symptoms. By getting treatment, you’ll literally be getting a breath of fresh air when you sleep, and you’ll finally have the energy again you pursue your goals.

Improve Your Relationships

It’s extremely difficult to be a good parent, spouse, friend, or employee when you’re constantly exhausted. The problems focusing and remembering things can be very damaging to both personal and professional relationships. It can feel like you’re just drifting through life rather than actually living it. Once your sleep is restored with an oral appliance, you’ll finally have the energy to put into the relationships around you, improving not only your life but others as well.

How to Get Started

Of course, the first step to achieving all of this is to get treatment for your sleep problems. Dr. Striebel can walk you through the entire diagnostic process and then supply you with a helpful oral appliance. All it takes is just one phone call to Sleep Better Appliances.
