Struggled to Breath While Wearing This! Only Get This If You Are SUPER AWESOME at Breathing ONLY Through Your Nose!
I have been struggling with what to rate this chin strap. I mean, the product does what it says in the sense that,, yeah, it holds your chin up so your mouth is closed. HOW that is supposed to help with snoring though... I just don't get it. Because it eliminates the ability to breath through your mouth entirely.<br /><br />I don't mind my husband's snoring; but I'm concerned for his health because he definitely has sleep apnea. He won't see a doctor for it because he doesn't want to use a cpap machine. *sigh* So, I've got him a mouthpiece that lifts his jaw which he hated and says he can't sleep with it. So I was REALLY hoping this might work.<br /><br />But it does NOT seem to help his breathing at all. And for people that would get this to make their snoring quieter... I don't think it works for that either because the sounds that were coming out of my husband when he wore this... were NOT quiet.  As a matter of fact, I woke him up to take this strap off because I was afraid he might die without being able to breath through his mouth. (Maybe that's irrational; but he was really struggling to breath while he was sleeping which is what I was trying to FIX... not make worse.)<br /><br />So, I don't know, maybe this might work for some people with incredibly clear nasal passages or something. But for us, it's just not helping. The only way we could use this is if somehow I could get him to wear this in combination with a snorkel, hahaha!<br /><br />So, my search continues for something to help my stubborn but wonderful husband.<br /><br />I received this DrSleepwell Chin Strap for free in order to test it out and provide my honest and unbiased review.  I am not paid by nor am I affiliated with the company in any way. As with all my reviews, if something stops working, gives an adverse reaction or changes in any way with continued use I will absolutely update this review.
