— John A.

Dr. Holly Ellis, Owner - Ellis Sleep Center
At Ellis Sleep Center, we take a highly personalized, collaborative approach to treating obstructive sleep apnea. Dr. Ellis and our all-female clinical team work directly with each patient, as well as their physicians and care providers when needed, to design and implement a treatment plan tailored to their specific diagnosis, lifestyle, and long-term health goals.
Serving patients throughout the St. Louis area, our focus is on effective, comfortable alternatives to CPAP therapy that patients can actually stick with. By combining clinical precision with compassionate care, we help patients reduce sleep apnea symptoms, improve overall health, and finally experience deeper, more restorative sleep. Our goal is simple: provide a solution that fits your life, supports your health, and helps you wake up feeling like yourself again.
Sleep Apnea Symptoms
Loud, frequent snoring
High Blood Pressure
Breathing pauses (a bed partner may hear a person gasp for breath in their sleep)
Excessive daytime sleepiness (the ability to fall asleep anywhere, at any time)
Memory problems
Irritability or moodiness
Decreased sex drive or impotence
Morning headaches
Acid reflux, indigestion or heartburn
Alternatives to CPAP
The traditional CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) machine is commonly used to treat OSA. Frequently uncomfortable, noisy, and difficult to wear while sleeping, CPAP treatment is often abandoned by patients for many reasons including comfort, noise, and look. An oral sleep appliance is a device that is custom made to fit each patient precisely. Similar to a retainer or sports mouth guard, the oral sleep appliance is worn by the patient at night and holds the lower jaw in a position that allows an open airway for continuous breathing.
