Many people who have sleep apnea or breathing problems might find the Oura ring is helpful for tracking their oxygen levels. In our clinic, we look at a patient's neck curve with Digital Motion X-ray and their airway with upright Cone Beam CT to look for the cervical spine dysstructure and any structural blockages that can be causing breathing problems. This also helps us recommend ideal individualized sleep positions and pillow options to help our patients get a better night's sleep by optimizing their neck curve and airway.
