Vivos Therapeutics, Inc. Signs Deal with Pro Player Health Alliance

DENVER, Oct. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Vivos Therapeutics, a company focused on addressing the root causes of mild-to-moderate sleep apnea, has signed a partnership with Pro Player Health Alliance, a provider in the National Football League Players Association's Professional Athletes Foundation (PAF) sleep apnea research program. The Vivos System consists of multi-disciplinary therapeutic protocols and oral appliances which remodel and enhance the airway. It is the only non-surgical treatment to offer a potentially permanent solution for sleep apnea. Vivos will participate in the NFLPA's Professional Athletes Foundation's health and wellness checkup events that along with a full cardiovascular evaluation also focuses on breathing wellness. Events will take place in NFL team cities and at the 2019 Pro Bowl and Super Bowl.

"Sleep apnea is a serious and growing health epidemic facing America," says Edward Loew, SVP of Capital Markets and Strategic Initiatives at Vivos. "Our newly formed partnership with Pro Player Health Alliance will allow us to provide highly effective relief to former NFL players, who are a high-risk segment of the population."

"Pro Player Health Alliance is pleased to showcase the Vivos System to NFL greats and top-notch dentists around the country", says David Gergen, CEO of Pro Player Health Alliance.

According to the American College of Cardiology, a study on 167 former NFL football players discovered that a staggering sixty percent (60%) of former players averaged over 18 episodes of disordered sleep each sleeping hour. Through co-sponsored health and wellness checks, Vivos hopes to play a role in this research program and provide a course of treatment for players that is an alternative to CPAP and mandibular advancement, with the goal of providing a more permanent solution to players' interrupted sleep episodes and promoting overall wellness.

Andre Collins, Executive Director of NFLPA's Professional Athletes Foundation says, "Normal, unobstructed, breathing is essential for life, especially at night. The negative health implications of untreated sleep apnea are numerous and impact millions of Americans. Vivos Therapeutics hopes through their health and wellness checks with the NFLPA's PAF, they will not only help NFL football players but increase public education on the early warning signs of sleep apnea, and introduce The Vivos System's non-invasive pain-free solution to a wider audience."
