Inspire therapy for sleep apnea

The ear nose and throat specialists at Hillcrest South offer Inspire sleep apnea therapy— an alternative to CPAP machine use. Inspire is a breakthrough treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a condition where your airway repeatedly closes during sleep, causing snoring and poor rest. Unlike a CPAP machine, Inspire works inside your body to keep your airway open. 

Inspire is a small device placed under the skin during a minimally invasive outpatient procedure. It monitors your breathing while you sleep and gently stimulates a nerve that controls your tongue, helping to keep your airway open. There is no mask or hose involved, so you’ll simply breathe normally. Inspire offers significant reduction in sleep apnea events, improved sleep quality, reduced snoring, and better daytime energy. Please call us to learn more about Inspire.
