“Sleep apnea is the abnormally frequent occurrence of pauses in breathing during sleep. It is often linked to factors such as overweight, difficulty breathing or even other pathologies. It causes disorders such as high blood pressure. We offer a program to our patients allowing them to lose weight and, subsequently, to reduce certain treatments”.
