What are the Causes of Sleep Apnea

Sleep Apnea occurs when muscles at back of your throat relax . These muscles then obstruct your air passage .

When these throat muscles relax , airway narrows or closes during the respiration and breathing momentarily cuts off .

This is really dangerous and it may lower the level of oxygen in your blood .

Brain senses this inability to breathe and briefly rouses patient from sleep so that patient can reopen the airway.

The awakening is usually so brief that patient does not usually remember it.

Many patients with sleep apnea think they slept well all night .

Snorting , choking or gasping sound is heard .

This pattern can repeat itself 20 to 30 times each hour or more all night .

Patients feel sleepy during waking hours .

Some Beneficial Exercises

http://apneacure.co.nf

Tongue exercises: many people don’t realize that the tongue is a muscle. If the tongue becomes weak it can drop into the throat, causing an airway blockage. Tongue exercises assist in building the tongue’s tone and strength.

Jaw exercises: a tense jaw can contribute to obstructive sleep apnea. If the jaw is tight it can place pressure directly on the breathing passages. Jaw exercises will help to loosen and relax the jaw muscles.

Throat exercises: weakened throat muscles can collapse during sleep, causing the airway to become blocked. Throat exercises help to build, tone and strengthen the throat muscles. The exercises also open the throat up more to prevent it closing upon sleep.

Soft palate exercises: the soft palate muscles located around the base of the tongue relax during sleep. A weak soft palate can flap around and its tip can fall down onto the tongue. The soft palate exercises lift the soft palate up. The exercises also tone and strength the soft palate.

Facial exercises: these exercises help with toning and strengthening many of the areas previously mentioned, including the neck. If the neck muscles are flabby and weak they can push down on the airway.
