Snoring and sleep apnoea

There are 2 milliards of snorers in the world and approximately 8 million snoring adults (about 22 % of population) in Poland. Only some cases of snoring have a definite cause and require specialist treatment. Most of snorers are healthy people who shorten their spouses’ (mainly women’s) sleep by about 1,5 hour every night. Therefore, snoring is also a serious social problem, which causes many tensions.

Snoring can have many degrees of intensity. If your partner moves out to the other room, you are a medium-snorer. If your neighbours move out of the flat next to yours, you are a ‘supersnorer.’
