Comfortable, Safe Sleep Available With CPAP Pillows

Thursday, January 28, 2010

Everyone knows how difficult it can be at times to get in a comfortable position when going to sleep. Now imagine trying to do so while wearing a CPAP mask.

Actually, if you already are being treated for obstructive sleep apnea, you don’t need to imagine. You know the problems of sleeping on a standard bed pillow. As your head sinks down, the pillow can push the mask off center, causing an air leak and robbing you of success with your sleep therapy.

The solution to those problems is the CPAP pillow. Because the pillow’s design creates a space in front of the patient’s face, the mask does not come into contact with the pillow. By eliminating the interference between the mask and pillow, the mask stays in place, keeping therapy on track. CPAP pillow are effective even for those who sleep on their sides. It comes in different sizes to accommodate pillow height preferences and different sized people.

CPAP pillows also lead to more comfortable and safer sleep. Standard bed pillows press the mask frame or headgear into the side of your face, leaving you with soreness and red marks at the pressure points. And if the standard bed pillow blocks the mask’s exhalation ports, dangerous levels of carbon dioxide can result within the mask. Instead of a good night’s sleep, you have discomfort. What’s worse, your sleep therapy loses effectiveness. But with the design of CPAP pillows, the patient enjoys restful, safe sleep.

The Talk About Sleep Online Store offers the PAPillow, a unique pillow designed by CPAP users and available in two sizes. The Double Edge PAPillow allows patients to “sleep on the edge” of a full-size pillow without experiencing mask leaks or pressure point soreness. The Mini Edge PAPillow works the same way but in a smaller pillow. It’s perfect for travel or for children as well as for adults.

With quality products from the Talk About Sleep Online Store, a good night’s rest is no longer a dream.
