Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center announced the expanded availability of Bongo Rx, an FDA-cleared nasal therapy device designed to help treat mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea.
-- The Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center announced expanded access to Bongo Rx therapy, a reusable nasal device designed to support individuals diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea who are seeking an alternative to traditional CPAP therapy. The compact device is designed to help support nighttime breathing and improve sleep quality using a simple, non-powered approach.

The therapy was recently introduced as part of a broader effort to expand accessible solutions for people living with sleep apnea. According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, an estimated 30 million adults in the United States are affected by sleep apnea, yet many cases remain undiagnosed.
Bongo Rx therapy uses soft nasal inserts that create gentle resistance during exhalation, a mechanism known as expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP). This resistance helps support the airway during sleep without requiring electricity, hoses, or a bedside machine.
Unlike traditional CPAP devices, Bongo Rx is small, lightweight, and designed to fit directly into the nostrils. Because the device is compact and portable, it can be used during travel and may appeal to individuals who prefer a simpler treatment approach.
The therapy is typically prescribed after sleep apnea testing confirms the condition. Once prescribed, patients receive a set of reusable nasal devices designed for nightly use, with different sizes available to ensure a comfortable fit.
Healthcare professionals increasingly recognize the importance of offering multiple treatment approaches for sleep apnea. While CPAP therapy remains a widely used option, alternative devices such as EPAP-based solutions provide additional choices for individuals exploring ways to support their breathing during sleep.
By expanding access to therapies like Bongo Rx, Thousand Oaks-based Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center aims to provide more flexible care pathways for individuals evaluating sleep apnea treatment after diagnosis. These options may help people address sleep disruptions while maintaining comfort and convenience.
