Our Sleep Apnea Yoga Success Stories

I have been attending the therapy and yoga classes at Patanjalee Institute of Yoga & Therapy at Adyar, Chennai for last three months. Actually, I was looking for the treatment for Sleep Disorder. My sleep was not proper due to snoring problem, I got check up and sleep tests under the guidance of an Allopathy Doctor. He suggested that I have to use CPAP machine while sleeping and the machine costs about 60-70 thousands Rupee. Besides this they prescribed nasal spray which may cause side effects also. Hence, Finally I decided to join some natural way of treating it, means by using yoga and therapy. I contacted this Patanjalee Institute in Adyar and took appointment for the treatment. After seven day of yoga therapy I found relief. Now, I am attending Yoga sessions in the morning daily Mon-Fri. I can say that the snoring has been reduced considerably by 60-70% and results are positive. I am sure that the sleep disorder problem can be treated very well at this centre, the therapist and yoga teacher is specialist in this field and prescribes case specific treatments. Thanks.
