Dr. Bradley Eli Shares His Enthusiasm For The Next Event With David Gergen, Pro Player Health Alliance And NFL Legends That Will Spread Awareness On Sleep Apnea
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) May 04, 2013
David Gergen and Pro Player Health Alliance are in full swing in preparation for the next sleep apnea awareness event which will be held in California this May. Part of the “Tackle Sleep Apnea” campaign is traveling to across the country to promote sleep apnea awareness with NFL greats who share their personal stories related to the deadly disorder.
Although CPAP devices reduce overall apneic episodes, the oral appliances have shown to have higher adherence among patients. This goes to show there is no “better treatment” for sleep disorders; dealing with one’s sleep is such a unique situation that the treatment for sleep disorders is dependent upon the patient’s needs. Dr. Eli states, “I believe the diagnosis of sleep disorders is complex and multi-dimentional, requiring a specialized physician, much like cardiology or neurology. The treatment options now are equally multi-dimentional requiring an expert who understands all the options and treatment. As a head and neck specialist, I’m well-qualified to present all the options to my sleep patients and expect outcomes above the national norm”.
In order to give others the best sleep possible, awareness has to be raised in the public communities throughout the country on what a good night’s sleep actually is. Many people are unaware that they need to seek treatment as it has become customary for individuals to feel tired throughout the entire day. This is due to the stress put on the body from not being able to breathe for up to 10-15 times per hour while asleep.
Dr. Eli and Pro Player Health Alliance invites anyone that snores, has morning headaches, unexplained fatigue during the day and anyone who wakes up gasping for air to invest in their own health and sleep by attending this hour long free event. Come meet Roy Green, Mike Haynes, Mark Walczak and many more NFL greats to educate yourself on the deadly disease that is sleep apnea by registering for this event at http://pphasandiego.eventbrite.com/
