Sleep Apnea Treatment in Singapore

Obstructive sleep apnea is generally very much unknown in Singapore. You can hardly find any Singapore sleep apnea website with related information regarding sleep apnea, snoring or sleep disorders. Most references on sleep apnea are readily available from US based sleep apnea websites, medical journals or sleep apnea forums. If you’re new to the topic of obstructive sleep apnea and want to get more information about sleep apnea in Singapore you’ve come to the right place. SleepApneaSite.com was specially created to address and discuss the issues about sleep apnea in Singapore.

I personally have severe obstructive sleep apnea and I want everybody who visits my site to learn more about sleep apnea for patients in Singapore and the options available to them to be able to successfully treat sleep apnea, as well as potential cures and remedies for their specific sleep disorders. My main agenda is to get everybody who has this condition to be treated in whatever way that is financially possible to them. Nobody should suffer this debilitating condition as obstructive sleep apnea has a potential to kill you. Sleep apnea itself might not lead to fatalities unless you fall asleep at the wheel while driving and get into a car accident. It can however certainly lead to a host of other health related problems such as high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke and many other medical problems which these diseases are associated with. Sadly, many people refuse to address this issue and simply take the problem of sleep apnea as a bad case of snoring which is often not the case.

For those in Singapore who have realized the potential problem and want to seek out medical advice on how to identify sleep apnea, explore the possible ways to treat obstructive sleep apnea and perhaps find a cure or alternative treatment that you’re comfortable with, you have a made a wise decision. Identifying the problem as well as coming to terms with obstructive sleep apnea at an early stage will be a huge step towards getting your life back. As mentioned before, there is unfortunately very little or almost no helpful information about sleep apnea in Singapore. I have decided to scour the web to find as much Singapore based sleep apnea related articles as well as useful websites on how to treat sleep apnea in Singapore. These are from medical journals and research done by Singapore doctors, Singapore hospitals and private clinics that have dedicated sleep apnea departments or specialists trained in the field of obstructive sleep apnea and sleep related disorders. Other are from online articles related to Singapore’s local sleep apnea scene, describing new ways and procedures on how to treat sleep apnea and other related sleep disorders in Singapore.

Hospitals in Singapore providing treatment for Sleep Apnea and Sleep Related Disorders:
  1. Tan Tock Seng Hospital Singapore - Department of Respiratory Medicine.
  2. Singapore General Hospital - Department of Respiratory & Critical Care Medicine Sleep Disorder Unit.
  3. Alexandra Hospital Singapore - Department of Otolaryngology (Ear, Nose and Throat).
  4. Changi General Hospital Singapore - Ear, Nose, Throat (Otolaryngology).
  5. National University Hospital Singapore - NUH ENT Services, Department of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery.
  6. National University Hospital Singapore - Sleep Apnea and Snoring facts.
  7. Institute of Medical Health - Sleep Disorders Clinic.
  8. Other private hospitals in Singapore that deal with obstructive sleep apnea and other sleep related disorders.
Private Clinics or Consultants in Singapore who specializes in treating sleep apnea. These could be specialists or Doctors in the field of Ear Nose and Throat (ENT), Respiratory Medicine as well as Dentistry:
  1. Pacific Sleep Centre
  2. Medical Sleep Spa
  3. Singapore Neurology and Sleep Center
  4. Singapore Sleep Society
  5. Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre – Aesthetic Jaw Surgery for Sleep Apnea
Option 2, the medical sleep spa is supposedly to help cure sleep apnea and sleep related disorders according to this article. The specialist at the Singapore based medical sleep spa blend diagnosis, consultations and remedies with exercise like Pilates and yoga together with upper body/back massage and radio frequency de-stress therapy to help relax the patient.

I hope the information here will be able to give you the available options and alternatives you might be able to take to cure your sleep apnea problems in Singapore.
