IS A SERIOUS MEDICAL CONDITION
Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Being able to breathe and sleep well through the night has an impact on the way we experience life and perform our work. Nearly half of adults snore, and over 25 percent are habitual snorers. Problem snoring and sleeping disorders are more frequent in males and people who are overweight, and usually worsens with age.
Snoring is bothersome to others, but it can also be a sign of a more serious condition known as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is present in three percent of the general population. OSA is characterized by multiple pauses in breathing greater than 10 seconds at a time due to upper airway narrowing or collapse. This lowers the amount of oxygen in the blood, and causes the heart to work harder. Because the snorer does not get a good rest, they may be sleepy during the day, which decreases their performance.
Untreated OSA can contribute to high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, workplace or motor vehicle accidents, and more. If you suspect that you have obstructed sleep apnea (OSA), consult you physician as soon as you are able.

About
Lacuna Side Sleeper, Anti Snoring Sleep Apnea Pillow technology was born from a concept originating out of a personal health concern caused by Obstructed Sleep Apnea (OSA). Like millions of Canadians and Americans, my wife and I had experienced this issue and become concerned with sleep issues related to my snoring and sleep apnea.
I had bought and evaluated dozens of sleep aides including mouth guards, nasal strips, chin straps, and many more in hopes of a simple solution, Nothing has worked for me. I visited many doctors and sleep clinics trying to find a solution. I resisted buying a CPAP because I don't want to feel like an alien while I sleeping next to my wife in bed.
Like millions of people, my wife and I had experienced this issue and become concerned with sleep issues related to my snoring and sleep apnea.
It was around 2 am, while awake and lying in bed that I was blessed with a solution to my problem, and an idea for Lacuna Technology was born. I have spent almost 3 years refining my solution. It is simple and it works.
I'm an inventor, not a doctor. I always suggest sleep apnea sufferers should consult a doctor on an individual basis. Some sleep apnea must be treated with a CPAP prescription or surgery.
