Have you ever struggled with insomnia, sleep apnea and just feeling tired all the time. In this episode, host Becca Rose shares her struggles with sleep that began in early middle school. She faced significant anxiety, restlessness, and difficulty falling asleep, which led to years of poor sleep quality. This ongoing issue persisted into adulthood, culminating in a diagnosis of moderate sleep apnea at the age of 28. Although she was prescribed a CPAP machine, Becca found it challenging to adjust to the device, describing it as a comforting yet cumbersome presence in her life.

Everything changed when she discovered myofunctional therapy and functional breathing techniques about three to four years ago. These methods not only improved her breathing efficiency but also strengthened her airway muscles, resulting in a remarkable transformation in her sleep quality. Recent sleep screenings revealed a significant decrease in her apnea events, and her sleep quality metrics were similar whether she used her CPAP machine or not. This improvement underscores the profound impact that myofunctional therapy and functional breathing can have on sleep health.
