One common treatment prescribed is a CPAP (Continuous Positive Air Pressure) mask and machine. The air pressure prevents the air passages from collapsing during sleep and keeps them open. My wife has one, and said it took a bit of getting used to, but is well worth it. Untreated, sleep apnea can lead to all kinds of series health problems, and can even be fatal.
