Crown Health Care Laundry Services is an independent full-service health care laundry processor and linen rental company.
Snoozeal was founded in 2015 in United Kingdom. Co-founder Prof. Dr Anshul Sama, working in a multidisciplinary sleep team, was deeply empathic with many of his patients that were struggling with conventional treatment options that had failed to change in the last two decades. Not dissimilar to practice in many parts of conventional medicine, the emphasis was on treatment of the end result (i.e. splinting the airway open) rather than treating the root cause- collapse of airway due to excessive loss of muscle tone. Over the years Prof Sama came across many devices, all of which had to be worn during sleep, were invariably uncomfortable, only effective when in use and further disrupted the already poor sleep quality.
