Our Tips for Using Nasal Masks for CPAP Therapy & Their Benefits

Obstructive sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder where the upper airways get obstructed, leading to an intermittent stopping of breathing during sleep. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy (CPAP) is a common treatment for this condition. It involves the use of a CPAP mask which is connected to a small machine that pumps air into the user’s airway. One of the most important parts of the treatment is finding the right mask. In fact, being able to find a mask that is comfortable and has a good seal can make a great difference in how likely you are to succeed with CPAP therapy.
