Shown here are Natividad “Naty” Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Uratex, Dr. Rodolfo V. Dizon Jr., president of Philippine Society of Sleep Medicine, Inc. , and Stephen Lee, Sleep Business Unit Director of Uratex at the inking ceremony on their official partnership in providing quality and innovative sleep solutions to Filipinos.
Sleep deprivation is a silent crisis affecting millions of Filipinos. Recent studies have indicated that the Philippines ranks among the most sleep-deprived nations globally. Both parties stressed that this partnership is not just about selling mattresses or products—it’s about a larger advocacy for sleep health.
“As of 2016, an estimated 2.5 million Filipinos were affected by obstructive sleep apnea. But that figure is outdated, and we expect it to have increased due to lifestyle changes, obesity, and anatomical factors that predispose Asians to sleep apnea,” she explained. Despite these challenges, the partnership between Uratex and PSSM offers hope. Dr. Dizon emphasized the sincerity of Uratex’s commitment to improving sleep health. “During the pandemic, we realized that Uratex is not just about profit—they genuinely care about the well-being of Filipinos. Their initiative to collaborate with us aligns perfectly with our mission to educate the public and provide solutions for sleep-related issues,” he said.
