Snoring? Constantly Tired?
HOME SLEEP TESTS ARE FREE
Feeling tired? Morning headaches? Do you snore? You may have Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Drop in to let one of our staff set you up with a take-home overnight sleep test at no cost. This is a simple, non-invasive study that you can complete in your own home during a regular night's sleep. Book a sleep study here.
PHYSICIAN OWNED
The Breath Factory is owned by Nova Scotian physicians Dr. RIck Balys, Dr. Carlo Mariotti, and Dr. Robin LeBlanc. Together they bring 60 years clinical experience to your care.
Entrust your therapy to the health care professionals who are trained to understand your health and how respiratory therapy, like CPAP, can help improve your quality of life.
MASKS, FILTERS AND TUBING, OH MY!
Masks, fliters and tubing can get biofilms, which are germ colonies that can live on your equipment, even with regular cleaning. Replacing this equipment is recommended at least every six months.
LOUD SNORING? TROUBLE SLEEPING? eXcite OSA THERAPY to the rescue!
Problem snoring and mild OSA can result from relaxation of the muscles of the tongue and palate that allow them to collapse, causing vibration or even obstruction of the airway. Neuromuscular stimulation of the tongue muscle during the day can improve muscle tone and lead to improved snoring and airflow metrics.
RELAX. YOU'RE IN GOOD HANDS.
Learning you have OSA and need CPAP and a mask to sleep at night can seem like a daunting prospect. Let our therapists put you at ease and fit you with just the right CPAP device and mask for your needs. Devices these days are whisper-quiet and masks are often a simple soft cushion placed against your nose.
