What is Sleep Apnoea?

Sleep apnoea is a common condition that affects your breathing while you sleep, causing it to repeatedly stop and start during the night. This occurs when the airway becomes temporarily blocked or collapses for 10 or more seconds. These interruptions can wake you up briefly throughout the night, even if you do not remember it.

Treatments

Treatments

While sleep apnoea can’t be cured, it can be managed effectively. The most common treatment is a CPAP machine, which stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. It keeps your airways open while you sleep, helping you breathe easier and wake up feeling refreshed.
