Success Stories from people who got rid of Central ​Sleep Apnea and Snoring:

AHA MOMENT:
Window-rattling snorers can be anyone of any age or either sex.
Look at the image and you will see two stereotypes contradicted.
The most common stereotype is an overweight, middle-aged male.  But the snoring person is a young woman. If she snores heavily, stops breathing and starts again with a gasp, and has had life-threatening experiences in her past, she likely has Central Sleep Apnea. It's certainly worthwhile to find out.

AHA MOMENT:  All of my clients, including Central Sleep Apnea clients - have lingering effects of physical and emotional trauma as the root cause of a wide variety of issues.  For additional testimonials other than sleep apnea go to Beyond Talk Therapy​® website.
No More CPAP
SUCCESS STORY #1:  Steve was the first person I worked with in 2008 for Central Sleep Apnea.  He had used a CPAP for 15 years and fit the stereotype for OSA but he actually had Central Apnea caused by PTSD from a near-drowning event when he was six years old.  He got rid of the CPAP and SNORING after ONE session. - Dr. Drewry

SUCCESS STORY #2:  Cara Gubbins - Childhood sexual abuse led to gasping for breath during sleep.  Complete recovery from Central Sleep Apnea and Snoring in four sessions.

I am 47 years old and I’ve had sleep apnea for all of my adult life. I tried every conventional treatment available, including sleep studies and CPAP machines. The CPAP helped my sleep apnea, but I couldn’t tolerate it and I would rip the tubes off my face in my sleep. I retired my CPAP machine and resigned myself to just living with sleep apnea.But for the past six years, I would often awake in the middle of the night on my hands and knees in bed gasping for breath. It became scary to go to sleep at night. I tried acupuncture, acupressure, energy work and other alternative therapies, but nothing was effective. After one session with Dr. Drewry…….my sleep apnea was gone and I now sleep through the night every night. The first night after our session, my body felt light and tingly as oxygen was continuously delivered to my whole body. I now wake up feeling rested and energetic and relaxed. What an amazing difference! Finding Dr. Drewry was a miracle for me because I truly thought it wasn’t possible to heal this condition. I’m so glad I gave her the chance to help me. She is thorough, professional, efficient and incredibly effective. I highly recommend her!

 SUCCESS STORY #3:  TOM W.  had central sleep apnea and insomnia. The root cause of his apnea was inutero - his mother smoked while pregnant with him and he was born prematurely.

"I'm deeply grateful for her work.  The remarkable pivot point in getting rid of sleep apnea was in Dr. Drewry’s method:  she uncovered the relationship between the CPAP mask and tubing, and the fact that I was born premature (not breathing well on my own) and kept alive in an incubator with a ventilator for several weeks.  As near as I can tell without a sleep study I am sleeping AND breathing normally after less than one month! 
 
I had been told I had sleep apnea for at least 20 years before I decided to undergo a sleep study which confirmed 31 apnea events in an hour. I started using a CPAP.  Unfortunately I had such a struggle sleeping with the machine that I put it aside. Worried about dying in my sleep without the CPAP, I started having severe anxiety and insomnia. It seemed I was damned if I did use the CPAP and damned if I didn't.
 
A close friend who was aware of my situation suggested I check out Dr. Damaris Drewry's website and her alternative healing approach to sleep apnea.  After two sessions the improvement was obvious and gratifying. After three sessions I'm pleased to report that the insomnia seems to have gone away. I have slept normally the last few consecutive nights. Neither falling asleep nor going back to sleep after awaking is a problem now. Dr. Drewry worked closely with me in between sessions via email updates and I found that very helpful.

 SUCCESS STORY #4:  Central Apnea and snoring completely stopped.
​ -  "Better than  Tapping Summit for trauma and sleep apnea..."

Dan N. headshot on beyondsleepapnea.com
​​My name is Dan N.  and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor for law enforcement.  I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea in 1998.

I had one session with Dr. Damaris Drewry.  I haven’t used my CPAP machine or my mouthpiece, and I’ve been sleeping like a baby.  My girlfriend tells me my snoring has stopped, and she is absolutely thrilled with the new me. To say I’m intrigued with EFT is an understatement, and I’ve been watching the “Tapping World Summit” since day one.  What has become very clear to me is that Dr. Drewry has developed a protocol that differs from what I’m hearing on the summit, and which actually makes more sense to me. I use EMDR extensively in my practice, and I know the power of trauma. Damaris found the trauma that caused my apnea, and she addressed it, and the results have been absolutely amazing.

My history with apnea: my first treatment was surgery – I had a “velopharyngeal plasti” procedure which was a surgical removal of my uvula and part of my palette.  This was absolutely the most painful surgery I have ever experienced, and I’ve had several!  That worked for 3 or 4 years, then I was back where I had started.  Then the apnea returned, and I went to a CPAP machine, which stopped the physiological aspect of sleep apnea, but replaced it with the discomfort of trying to sleep with a gas mask attached to a tube, attached to a noisy machine that dried out my throat…I could go on, but the bottom line it was not a very comfortable solution.  So I tried a “pure sleep” mandibular advancement device, a plastic device that keeps my lower jaw jutting forward.  The only problem is that I woke up with pain in my teeth and jaw, and my jaw still pops when I chew on my left side.   Damaris suggested to me that a “Beyond Talk Therapy” session in which she uses EFT and NLP to address the “body’s bio-intelligence” could help my sleep apnea, I agreed to try a session, although somewhat cynically.
I am very impressed.

SUCCESS STORY #5:   Dan B.  was diagnosed with OSA and was using a CPAP for a long time.  He started sessions in 2015 and did five.  His traumas were from NARCISSISTIC WOUNDING in childhood, and ONGOING JOB STRESS at the time of sessions.  He was using a CPAP throughout the sessions and monitored his AHI readings which he shows in the first video. Dan's second video is about a year later when he threw the CPAP mask across the bedroom and was completely over the effects of Central Sleep Apnea.  He was told he had an incurable condition and he would have to use a CPAP for the rest of his life.  This turns out not to be true!
