Do you frequently wake up throughout the night to gasp for air? Do you wake up with a dry mouth and feeling irritable? Obstructive sleep apnea is a sleep disorder that poses serious health issues. Chiropractic care is a natural method for treating sleeping apnea. It addresses the source of the problem by relaxing the spinal muscles at the back of the throat. At ANEW Medical and Rehabilitation in Joilet, Illinois, we offer care that most conventional medicine cannot so that you can restore your comfortable sleeping patterns.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a sleep disorder in which breathing stops and resumes repeatedly. It occurs due to the relaxation of the muscles located behind the throat. These muscles are responsible for supporting the tonsils, tongue, soft palate, and sidewalls of the throat. Being unable to breathe leads to a low level of blood oxygen in the brain. The sensation of being unable to breathe causes you to wake up in order to breathe.
Twenty-two million people are estimated to suffer from sleep disorders in the United States. Some of the symptoms of this condition include the following:
Chiropractic care is a natural solution for sleep apnea. Our chiropractor, Dr. Lisa Rubis, will manipulate the part of the spine behind the neck and align it properly. The process simulates exercises that strengthen the muscles and tissues around the spinal column. It will also release tension in your neck, stabilizing the tissues behind the throat for better breathing. We will also evaluate your sleeping patterns and advise you accordingly.
