When obstructive sleep apnea occurs, the tissues in your upper throat relax and collapse together while you’re sleeping. This blocks the air’s passage temporarily. Sleep apnea usually occur frequently in men than women, most likely in African-American and Hispanic men. Symptoms may include loud snoring, daytime sleepiness, and untreated sleep apnea can cause heart disease, weight gain, migraines and much more.
There are many treatments for those who suffer from this with this problem that may include medications, surgery, weight loss and so fourth. But now there is a simple way to get rid of sleep apnea maybe for good just by doing a few simple exercises a day. Doing these exercises is simple and inexpensive way for treating your sleeping problems and also cure or significantly reduce snoring.
Studies have shown great results from changes in patients who done these exercises,. Some of the results includes:
- Decrease in neck circumference measurement
- Reduced snoring
- Better sleep pattern
The other 16 males were instructed to carry out oropharyngeal exercises for the course of the 2 month duration. The exercise routine was done daily, prior to bedtime. Results: no difference was noted in the 15 men administered the “pseudonym” drug.
The speech language pathologist leading the study said, “We obviously needed to use a fake product to set against the oropharyngeal exercises. The 16 men completing the exercise routine, had to feel as though they were competing – as if they were taking part in a challenge. The 15 men taking the so called ‘drug’ thought they had the easy option. The other group did all the physical work” (i.e. doing the oropharyngeal exercises).
Of the 16 men completing the exercise routine:
- 2 showed no signs of improvement
- 8 showed minor signs of improvement
- 4 showed major signs of improvement
- 2 showed signs that their obstructive sleep apnea had completely cleared
