How is sleep apnea treated?

Treatments for sleep apnea vary, depending on the severity of the condition. Lifestyle changes such as losing weight, quitting smoking, varying sleep positions and abstaining from alcohol and sleeping pills are often successful in treating mild cases of sleep apnea.

For more chronic or disruptive sleep apnea cases, CPAP therapy is the most common and effective treatment. With continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), you wear a mask over your nose and/or mouth while you sleep. The mask is hooked up to a machine that delivers a constant flow of air into your nose. This airflow helps keep your airways open so you can breathe the way you should.

As long as you are committed to using CPAP every night, it can make your symptoms completely disappear. Many people do find the therapy hard to adjust to at first, but our therapists at Columbia Respiratory are dedicated to helping you find the right products that will work for you. With a wide range of masks, sizes and styles to choose from, our professionals are confident that we can get you back to restful sleep in no time.
