Guess what the easy cure to sleep apnea is?
A Friend’s Journey to Better Sleep
A younger buddy of mine had been struggling with sleep apnea for a while and was using a CPAP machine.
He knew I was deep into biomechanics, so he asked if I thought my appliance could help.
I looked at him and said, “Do birds still fly south for the winter?”
He squinted at me, confused. “Uh… yeah?”
“Well, there’s your answer.”
The next day, he ordered one and started using it as soon as it arrived.
A few weeks later, he messaged me, “Man, this thing is seriously helping me sleep better. Thank you!”
And I have no doubt that, given enough time, he’ll be sleeping better than he ever has before.
What Is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea is when you stop breathing while you sleep. The most common form, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), happens when the airways physically collapse during sleep.
And it’s not just about snoring—it wrecks your sleep, crushes your energy, and puts you at higher risk for almost every major disease.
Not to mention, it kills cognitive function because your brain isn’t getting enough oxygen at night.
For someone who sleeps poorly every night, improving sleep could be the single biggest boost to their happiness and quality of life. It’s that important.
The Rise of Sleep Apnea
The numbers are staggering—sleep apnea has exploded in the U.S. in the last few decades. Around 30 million Americans now have it, and that number is climbing fast.
Look at CPAP sales—they’re through the roof.
Millions of people are now strapping these machines to their faces every night. It’s become so common that no one even stops to question why.
The Cause of Sleep Apnea
Doctors will tell you it’s caused by obesity, genetics, smoking, alcohol, sleeping position—you name it.
But here’s the thing: most of these are symptoms, not causes. It’s like saying, “You’re overweight because you’re fat.” No kidding. But why did you gain weight in the first place?
And if these were truly the causes, then riddle me this:
Genetics? Have human genes suddenly mutated in the last 20-30 years? If so, someone should wake up Charles Darwin and tell him he was wrong.
Smoking? It has actually decreased over the past few decades.
Alcohol consumption? It’s remained relatively flat.
So what’s really going on?
The Real Cause: Biomechanics
Doctors talk about “anatomical features” like narrow airways and deviated septums as if these things just randomly occur.
But why do some people have narrow airways while others don’t?
It’s simple—their skulls are literally compressed. When the structure collapses (often from modern habits that ruin posture and facial development), the airways get crushed along with it.
I go into much more depth on this in my article:
The Crushed Box Theory
Why Conventional Treatments Fall Short
Most mainstream solutions are just band-aids:
- Lose weight
- Avoid alcohol
- Change sleeping position
- Use a CPAP machine
- Get surgery
None of these actually fix the root cause. Which is why most people never really get rid of sleep apnea.
The only solutions that actually address the structural issue are oral appliances that companies are now selling.
But even they don’t fully understand what’s happening. They think their devices just hold the airway open—but they don’t realize that they’re also stretching and reshaping the skull’s soft tissue.
Some of these appliances lock the jaw into place, which can plateau progress instead of allowing natural movement as the structure improves.
A Simple Rubber Mouthguard Can Fix Sleep Apnea
So how do you actually fix sleep apnea for good?
Easy—you need to uncrush your skull.
The way to do this is through the biomechanics I talk about. A simple rubber mouthguard—like the Reviv One—can do the trick.
It adds vertical height between your teeth, unlocks the occlusion, and helps “inflate” the skull. As this happens, the airways naturally open up as the cranial bones shift back into proper alignment.
Breathing improves.
And, in most cases, sleep apnea disappears.
Closing Thoughts
Sleep apnea isn’t some mysterious disease that randomly affects people. It’s a direct consequence of biomechanical collapse.
You don’t see models, pro athletes, or people with great facial structure dealing with sleep apnea.
But take one look at the typical CPAP user, and you won’t be shocked. Their structure tells the whole story.
Instead of fixing the root cause, the medical industry straps millions of people to CPAP machines and tells them they’ll need them for life.
It’s insanity once you understand how simple the real fix is.
Fix the structure, fix the problem.
