Snoring & Sleep Apnea

Snoring - is the vibration of respiratory structures during sleep that results in a sound. It is caused by obstructed air movement during breathing. The sound can be soft or loud and unpleasant.

Sleep apnoea - a sleep disorder characterized by abnormal pauses in breathing or instances of abnormally low breathing, during sleep. Each pause in breathing, is called an apnoea, and can last from a few seconds to minutes.
