Fortunately, most sleep problems can be helped if they are accurately diagnosed and appropriately treated. The Rose Sleep Disorder Center has been successfully diagnosing and treating sleep problems for more than a decade. Our trained sleep medicine specialists work with each patient through evaluation and assessment to determine their specific sleep issues.
Sleep is something we sometimes take for granted. But high-quality sleep is very important and poor sleep—either low-quality sleep or too little sleep—can result in some major consequences, including:
Sleep apnea means not breathing for 10 or more seconds while asleep. This disrupts the sleep cycle and prevents a proper night’s sleep. It occurs when the relaxed tongue blocks or narrows the airway. It can also occur if you have bone deformities or larger than normal tissues in your nose, mouth, or throat. Symptoms include loud snoring, daytime sleepiness, and headaches. More severe apnea, determined by how often and how long you don’t breathe, may cause or worsen high blood pressure and coronary artery disease.
Heart Disease is a major risk factor associated with Sleep Apnea
