Tired All the Time / Sleep Apnoea
Waking up unrefreshed, falling asleep during the day, or being told you stop breathing in your sleep — these are classic signs of obstructive sleep apnoea. Untreated sleep apnoea isn't just exhausting; it raises your risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and accidents. Many people live with it for years without realising it's treatable.

Sleep apnoea is a condition where your breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. It causes loud snoring, fragmented sleep, and daytime fatigue, and increases the risk of serious cardiovascular disease.
Not necessarily. CPAP is highly effective but isn't the only option. Oral appliance therapy works well for mild to moderate cases, and surgical options exist for selected patients. We tailor treatment to what fits your life.
Sleep apnoea is usually a chronic condition that needs ongoing management, but the right treatment can fully control symptoms and protect your long-term health.
