Its principal focus is operating very high quality sleep centers that diagnose and treat sleep disorders. Phyhealth Corporation, publically-traded on the OTC Bulletin Board (PYHH), is seeking capital to expand its wholly-owned subsidiary Phyhealth Sleep Care Corp. Some 40 million Americans suffer from chronic sleep disorders and another 30 million experience occasional problems sleeping. The long-
term effects of sleep disorders have been associated with a wide range of harmful health consequences, including increased risk of hypertension, diabetes, obesity, depression, heart attack and stroke. Chronic sleep deprivation and excessive sleepiness impairs cognitive function, memory and the immune system. It changes the body’s metabolism, making us eat more yet feel less satisfied, and it causes more than 100,000 motor vehicle accidents annually. Among the most significant sleep disorders is Obstructive Sleep Apnea, which affects 18 million Americans, is more common in those that are over 40 and more than half of its sufferers are overweight. The good news is that many sleep disorders can be managed effectively, if diagnosed, and sufferers may be able to quickly improve their health and happiness
Phyhealth Sleep Care operates upscale sleep diagnostic and treatment centers, treating a wide variety of sleep disorders, led by obstructive sleep apnea. Our mission is to improve the lives of our patients by providing exceptional diagnostic and therapeutic services designed to promote restorative sleep. Our centers offer private bedrooms, and often a private bath, that are similar to upscale hotel rooms and worlds apart from the clinical atmospheres of hospitals and medical practices with whom we compete. Our state-of-the-art technology, innovative treatment and close follow-up patient monitoring separate us from our competitors. Take a virtual tour of our centers at www.phyhealthsleepcare.com. Sleep center accreditation and physician certification have grown tremendously over the last 20 years and with the aging of the Baby Boomers and the obesity epidemic in the U.S., it is expected to continue double digit growth in coming years. While there are thousands of sleep centers, the majority are independently operated and there is no dominant national operator.
