Does any of this sound like you? Are you tired all day, even though you think you had a good night’s sleep? When your morning alarm rings, do you want to throw the clock out the window and stay in bed, despite resting all night? You may have obstructive sleep apnea and not even know it.
Does your bedmate complain that you snore loudly? Do they ever tell you that the way you breathe (and don’t breathe) in your sleep worries them? People with apnea are often unaware of their condition.
Sleep apnea can negatively impact your quality of life those around you. In Maryland a great new treatment option is now available.
If any of these scenarios sounds like you, and you live right here in Maryland or the D.C. Metro area, please feel free to contact us without delay. We are Chevy Chase ENT, and we offer a comfortable apnea treatment option that may help you (and your partner) sleep better at night.
A New Alternative to Consider
Until now, sleep apnea treatments were limited and generally involved cumbersome CPAP machines and awkward dental devices. Chevy Chase ENT has a better idea: RFA. Radio Frequency Ablation uses painless radio waves to alleviate symptoms of sleep apnea. The in-clinic outpatient procedure is quick and comfortable.
Why Here, Why Now?
Sleep apnea is a breathing disorder that affects millions of people, many of whom live right here in Maryland. A person experiencing an episode of sleep apnea during sleep stops breathing and involuntarily holds their breath. When this happens, the brain sends a wake-up signal through the body, so the sleeper can inhale. People with sleep apnea may experience hundreds of these breath holding episodes every night. No wonder they wake up feeling exhausted.
If you or someone you know is in need of a better night’s sleep, contact us for a no obligation consultation. We are the sleep specialists at Chevy Chase ENT located in the Virginia, Maryland, and Washington D.C. metro area dealing with sleep apnea and sleep-related problems. We can help diagnose your condition, recommend whether a sleep study would be beneficial, and offer you a variety of treatment options including CPAP, Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) and more.
