Many of us may take for granted the feeling of being rested and refreshed after a good night's sleep but for so many this is not the case. Our bodies require regular uninterrupted sleep sessions in order to allow optimal awake functions such as driving a vehicle, performing a job, and enjoying routine life activities.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure or CPAP (pronounced sea-pap), is considered the gold standard treatment for the symptomatic relief of Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
