Sleep Apnea Relief

Many Essential Oils can be utilized in effective Sleep Apnea Relief. These oils have the ability to control symptoms and help stop the brief interruptions in breathing you may experience while you are asleep.

When you are able to sleep uninterrupted you are not faced with chronic fatigue and other physical and mental ailments that are common in sleep apnea sufferers.

Try some of the oils discussed on this page and see for yourself the very real assistance they can provide. You may find wearing that uncomfortable and very expensive CPAP mask is not necessary. 

What is Sleep Apnea?

There are 2 main types of sleep apnea:

1. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): The tissue at the back of your throat relaxes and obstructs air from passing through. This could be in the form of a passage narrowing or a complete blockage.
   
2. Central Sleep Apnea (CSA): For some reason your brain stops sending breathing instructions to the muscles in your throat.

There are several oils which can help in both these situations. Let's discuss a few of them as well as the methods for their usage.

Before we go any further however, I need to advise you that sleep apnea is quite serious and can have serious to fatal consequences if it is ignored.

I believe oils can help but I do recommend that you see your medical professional in order to determine the severity and possible treatment of the problem. (see my disclaimer here)

While you discuss your unique situation you can make your desires to use essential oils in your treatment known.
