[PR.com] — Snoring and Sleep disorders can cause serious health problems. The most common disorder, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, makes a person stop breathing repeatedly during sleep, and can lead to an increased risk of high blood pressure, heart attack and stroke. Other common sleep disorders include insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness and restless legs syndrome. The good news is that nearly everyone with a sleep disorder can be effectively treated.

To find out if you or a loved one is suffering from a sleep disorder, come to the Free Sleep Disorder Screening Clinic at Sound Sleep Centers in Burnsville from 10am-3pm on Saturday, January 30th.
