Sleep Apnia Masks 

Apnia is a common misspelling of apnea.  Sleep apnia masks, or apnea masks, are traditionally used with a CPAP machine for treatment of sleeping disorders.  A sleep apnia mask or apnea mask, is an essential element to the breathing machine to help promote rest.  The mask is attached to a machine that forces a continual stream of air into the nasal passage, keeping it free from blockage.  This helps prevent the patient from continually awakening throughout the night.  Sleeping peacefully and getting a good night’s rest is a common result of this treatment.

These masks should fit the patient comfortably while they sleep.  Sleeping while undergoing this treatment may be awkward at first but it is easy to get used to.  Ensure a proper fit for maximum comfort and to help make slumber while using this device easier to get used to.  If you routinely awaken in the middle of the night or suffer from loud snoring, this device may be just what you need.  These items are readily available at medical supply stores or pharmacies.  Check with your doctor for a prescription.  Getting a good night’s rest is important in leading a healthy lifestyle and being able to function with energy during the day.
