Our Solutions
Mask Fitting and Selection: We offer a wide range of masks and provide professional fitting services to ensure maximum comfort and minimal leakage. Our team will help you find the right mask style and size that works best for you.
Humidification Options: To combat dryness, we recommend using a CPAP machine with a built-in humidifier or adding a heated humidifier. This can add moisture to the air and reduce dryness in the mouth and throat.
Desensitization Techniques: For those who struggle to get used to the mask and airflow, we offer desensitization techniques and gradual adjustment plans to help you become more comfortable with your CPAP therapy.
Noise Reduction Tips:Modern CPAP machines are designed to be quieter, but if noise remains a concern, we can provide tips and solutions to minimize disruptions, such as using white noise machines or earplugs.
Compliance Support:Our team provides ongoing support and follow-up care to address any issues and ensure you remain compliant with your therapy. We offer education, troubleshooting, and motivational support to help you stick with your treatment plan.
