Discovering Alternative Treatments To CPAP

By Harold Brooks


Where there have been a number of different treatments for Sleep Apnea and loud snoring over the years, few have been successful. For, while CPAPs have been known to work the best, there are still a number of issues. While this is the case, there are now alternative treatments to CPAP which have eliminated at least some of these issues.

While Inspire requires a quick outpatient procedure, once implanted all individuals have to do is turn on the device with a remote before sleep, and turn off the device when awake. After which, the device will automatically reset for the next period of sleep.

The device works with natural breathing patterns without the need for heavy CPAP equipment or cleaning machines. As such, most people using the device wake up alert, aware and refreshed. In addition, there is no grogginess or sleepiness from a lack of sleep due to the loud noise which a number CPAP machines create.

Inspire has also been known to eliminate stress between partners. For, if a partner can not sleep due to loud snoring, gasping or breathing equipment, it can often result in interrupted sleep. As such, partners can often have difficulty functioning at work or when dealing with children due to a lack of sleep.

The product has been approved by the FDA of the United States as of 2014 for human use after several long term studies and trials. As such, the product is as, if not safer than traditional breathing equipment. For, it is more likely that if an individual experiences difficulty breathing, a partner is more likely to hear gasping or other noises with an implant versus loud breathing equipment.

According to ongoing studies with regards to individuals currently using the device, there has been a seventy nine percent reduction in sleep apnea. The device has also been proven to reduce daytime sleepiness by reducing snoring and allowing for better overall sleep patterns. As such, most Inspire users have been extremely satisfied with the product as a good alternative to external breathing treatments.

Locating a doctor whom can provide the treatment is as easy as entering a zip code or clicking a link on the company website at inspire sleep dot com. Whether entering a zip code or clicking the link to acquire a list of clinics by state, individuals can often find a location within easy driving distance. Whereas, some individuals living in more rural areas may need to make a day trip to reach the closest location.

Individuals are often advised to check with a primary health care provider before switching to any type of alternative treatment. As there are only a few insurance companies which provide coverage for alternative forms of treatment, it is also a good idea to contact current providers to assure the treatment is covered under a current policy. After which, it can often be easier for individuals to decide whether or not an Inspire implant might be a good option.
