Sleep Posture Pillow
$49.95
Sleep Posture Pillow When was the last time you got a good nights sleep? Dr. Cole, inventor of the Sleep Posture Pillow , recognized that in order to enjoy restful and rejuvenating sleep, there needs to be proper posture and alignment for the body throughout the night. Studies show that one in ten people suffer from chronic insomnia and, according to the National Sleep Foundation, 20 percent of American adults reported that pain or physical discomfort disrupts their sleep several nights per week or more. The sleep posture pillow is shaped like the letter nine. This unique shape is designed to prevent you from sleeping on your back and stomach. Sleeping on your back can cause low back pain with a lack of support for the curve in your spine. Back sleeping can also aggravate snoring and sleep apnea. Sleeping on your stomach also puts a strain on your back as well as your jaw and neck. Bring it on a road trip to make those naps much more comfortable. The sleep posture pillow does an impressive job of reducing almost all strain from your sleeping position. It ensures a proper sleeping position and posture, making sure you have a great nights sleep! One size fits most, if you are over 4' 8" tall and under 6' 6" tall. This product is great for sleep apnea sufferers or side-sleepers! Sleep Posture Pillow Features: Wake up refreshed! Beyond support for your head, neck and spine, the pillow prevents rolling on your back or stomach and torsion twisting your spine in two directions at once. Reduce stress on your heart, particularly if you have been diagnosed with congestive heart failure, by sleeping in an upright position. This position allows the heart to work with gravity and decreases stress. Reduces strain on the spine Includes ear well to prevent painful ear folding Great for use in airplanes and cars!

Breeze SleepGear Interface System With DreamSeal Mask - Shallow DreamSeal Mask
$109.99
Breeze SleepGear Interface System With DreamSeal Mask The Breeze SleepGear Interface System with DreamSeal Mask is a non-restrictive and non-confining headpiece and mask that is designed to float over the face and contour with your head. This system has no confining straps to struggle with and when worn, allows patients to sleep in almost any position. These masks are made for use with CPAP Machines. A Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine is used mainly by patients for the treatment of sleep apnea at home. Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the upper airway becomes narrow as the muscles relax naturally during sleep. This reduces oxygen in the blood and causes arousal from sleep. The CPAP machine stops this phenomenon by delivering a stream of compressed air via a hose to a nasal pillow, nose mask or full-face mask, splinting the airway (keeping it open under air pressure) so that unobstructed breathing becomes possible, reducing and/or preventing apneas and hypopneas (characterized by recurrent episodes of upper airway obstruction during sleep). This has the additional benefit of reducing or eliminating snoring. The CPAP machine blows air at a prescribed pressure (also called the titrated pressure). The necessary pressure is usually determined by a sleep physician after review of a study supervised by a sleep technician during an overnight study (polysomnography) in a sleep laboratory. Multiple adjustments and size options offer patients a true custom fit. The Breeze SleepGear Interface System with DreamSeal Mask comes in three sizes: Standard, Large and Shallow. Breeze SleepGear Interface System With DreamSeal Mask Features Included are Halo Straps (not shown in default image) and Perimeter Seal Patients can sleep in virtually any position Multiple adjustments and size options Versatile headgear works with Nasal Pillows or the DreamSeal Mask No confining, hard-to-adjust straps Ultra-quiet exhalation vent Compatible with all Puritan Bennett GoodKnight CPAP and KnightStar 330 Bi-Level systems. New Design Enhancements! Durable - The hose guide for the Nasal Pillows assembly has an improved design and features a stronger material to ensure greater longevity. New Clips- A new clip has been added to the Nasal Pillows assembly to give patients greater flexibility in positioning the halo straps for a secure fit. Comfortable - The cradle pad has thicker padding to increase comfort for a good night's sleep. Convenient - A cuff has been added to the swivel adapter to help keep it in place.

Have had several sleep studies and worked in a sleep laboratory. It is different from sleep in the lab but the lab is designed as a hotel room. Most people do ok. You will arrive around 8-9 hours. Fill out the paperwork. Put PJ (sweats are very good) then the connect son Tech. You have an EEG, EKG, the son on your face and your legs. There is also a microphone and a snore as a sensor flow of oxygen cannuala. The son are grouped and connected to a small box on the pocket book. This box plugs into a socket in the wall. There is also a camera in the room to monitor you. Technicians are in another room nearby. There is also an intercom. If you need to go to the toilet you simply enter the technology. They will come and pick up the box from the wall and you take it in the bathroom with you. This is not a big deal. All world usually visits the bathroom at least a couple of times a night. Technicians will wake you up to 5 hours and pick you. Often they have breakfast. Most have a shower if you must go to work. I usually just go home. For GET the stuff in your hair, use a washcloth and wipe as much as you can and comb. When the shower, wash your hair with conditioner before washing your hair or shampoo combo as PERT. what appears to help get the Goop your hair. What to bring includes information regarding insurance, copay, tolietries a pillow if you want something loose and comfortable sleeping, slippers, if you normally wear them, drugs, a book to read while waiting if you like. The room usually has a television. Any other questions let me know.
