Are You Looking for an Alternative to CPAP?
With Genio, you no longer have to sleep with a mask!
Genio is a treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It is indicated for patients who cannot tolerate or have failed continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy.
Genio uses neurostimulation to treat obstructive sleep apnea. It's a game changer for people who can't tolerate CPAP therapy.
The effectiveness of neurostimulation in treating obstructive sleep apnea has been scientifically proven in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea.
- Improvement in the severity of sleep apnea
- Positive impact on snoring
- Easy to use and comfortable
Did you know that neurostimulation is already helping thousands of people treat their sleep apnea?
Some patients talk about their experiences and explain why they chose the Genio Therapy.
Treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Neurostimulation
Genio is a system consisting of a neurostimulator, an activation chip, a charger, and adhesive patches.
The tiny neurostimulator is implanted under the chin. Its electrodes are placed in contact with both branches of the hypoglossal nerve resulting in bilateral stimulation of the nerve.
The neurostimulator is controlled by an external activation chip that is placed under the chin with an adhesive patch before going to sleep.
During sleep, stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve causes a small forward movement of the back of the tongue, preventing it from falling back and blocking the upper airway.
