The Pro Player Health Alliance (PPHA) has launched the Tackle Sleep Apnea campaign and is holding free public awareness events to educate individuals about the effects of untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
The PPHA is an organization dedicated to helping former National Football League (NFL) players by providing testing and treatment options for those who suffer from OSA. In addition, the PPHA is dedicated to integrating education and raising awareness of sleep apnea. Since the Tackle Sleep Apnea campaign has launched, more than 150 former professional athletes have been successfully treated and the number is growing, according to the organization.
The PPhA was created by David Gergen, president of Gergen's Orthodontic Lab, and former NFL players. To learn more about the PPHA and upcoming events, visit the organization's website.
