Patients receive education on avoiding irritants and managing attacks, with ongoing support to maintain respiratory health.

Using advanced monitoring technology, we analyze sleep patterns and breathing interruptions. Results guide tailored treatments, including CPAP therapy and lifestyle adjustments, to improve sleep quality and daytime functioning.
