Inspire therapy is a mask-free1 solution for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have tried
and struggled with CPAP. Through a simple-to-use system including the Inspire® implant, Inspire™
remote and Inspire® app, Inspire therapy enables you to control your OSA treatment from the palm of
your hand. 

How does Inspire therapy work?
During sleep, your tongue relaxes. For people with OSA, your tongue relaxes into a position that blocks
your airway. While other OSA therapies use a hose and mask to force air through your airway, the Inspire
implant works comfortably2 inside your body to sense when you take a breath. Then, it delivers gentle
pulses that move your tongue forward to keep your airway open, helping you breathe regularly and
sleep soundly. Simply use the small handheld Inspire® remote to turn your therapy on when you’re ready
to sleep.
