Main reason for sleep apnea - in my opinion - is deformed/degenerated fascia in the neck aka head forward posture. It's the disease of our modern (sedentary) age. SA is only one symptom. If you heard this the first time please feel free to ask. I'm always astounded at how common these CPAP devices are. Truly frightening.

That is definitely one cause of OSA as is micrognathia and other craniofacial abnormalities, but it remains that the most common cause is fat mass constricting the upper airway - even if that person has completely normal craniofacial development and proper posture.
