Are Sleep Apnea or Snoring Issues Leaving You Exhausted?
Is your sleep, or your partner's sleep, disrupted every night by snoring?
Snoring is a common issue, with nearly half of adults in the U.S. experiencing it occasionally and about 30% snoring habitually.
Many people report that their partner’s snoring disrupts their sleep on a regular basis. If snoring or sleep apnea is affecting your nights, consider scheduling an appointment with Columbia Breathe Free to explore your options.

What Causes Snoring?
Snoring occurs when airflow through the nose and mouth is obstructed, leading to turbulent air that causes vibrations and those familiar snoring sounds. This can interrupt your rest, your partner’s rest, and potentially lead to serious health issues.
Understanding Sleep Apnea
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder where breathing temporarily stops during sleep. This can cause morning headaches, reduced mental function, and a loss of sex drive. In some individuals, untreated sleep apnea has been associated with high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, and an increased risk of cardiovascular complications.
How Are Sleep Apnea and Snoring Treated?
Often, snoring and sleep apnea are linked to nasal or sinus problems. Swelling from allergies, nasal polyps, or sinusitis can obstruct airflow. Changes or abnormalities in the tongue or throat can also contribute to these issues.
A thorough evaluation by a specialist can help determine the underlying causes of your sleep apnea and snoring.
