Customer Review: At last a product that works and is not annoying
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been the perpetrator of nasal snoring (as opposed to throat snoring) for many years. (sorry, dear wife!) I have tried a great number of interventions - some of which do not apply because it is dependent on my sleeping position, some of which did not work for a variety of reasons.
The most common devices to keep the nasal passages open are the strips that adhere to the outside of the nose: great if they have enough force to do their job and enough adhesive to keep them there. Not so great with that sticky remnant every morning unless they have already peeled off overnight.
Some in-the-nose devices have worked better to keep the nasal passages open, but they were far from comfortable. Anything with sufficient clamp to hang onto your septum overnight is going to be annoying.
So, when I saw Nasivent I thought I would give it a try. Made from surgical grade silicone tubing, the four sizes provided will surely include one that fits your nose. I found that two worked well with me. The beauty of this system is that the tubing cannot collapse and within moments of insertion is almost impossible to notice. (I have, on occasion, gone to scratch my nose after I have inserted the tubing and am reading before sleep and startled myself to feel the Nasivent there - had forgotten it was in already.)
The results? Much better, uninterrupted sleep! Welcome back in with my sweetie. More energy during the day.
And it is so simple and almost invisible to the casual observer - had an overnight in coach on the AutoTrain recently and no one seemed to notice I had my Nasivent in but I do know that I got 8 hours of great sleep and when asked no one around me had heard any snoring.
If you have exhausted all the other "remedies" and are still exhausted after a night's sleep interrupted by too many snorts, try the Nasivent.
Customer Review: Works Great
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using this nasivent tube for several weeks now and have enjoyed good results from it. Too little airflow through my right nostril is a key problem for me, so I surmise this product would be quite helpful for people with deviated septums. The Nasivent tube has fallen out of my nose a couple times while asleep, but this is not due to poor product quality, but rather my abnormal nasal anatomy that makes fitting the tube into my right nostril a bit tricky (I have implanted alloderm tissue on my right lateral wall that compensates for a removed inferior turbinate, and the tube bumps into that). If my nose was normal, it would probably fit snug, as it does in my left nostril. The silicone material is quite comfortable and, as soon as I place it in my nose, I can sense the air I am inhaling significantly better. It's like air whips right into my nose.
I use this product in combination with an oral appliance and, together, both have effectively solved my sleep apnea. As a result, my sleep quality is excellent now, for the first time in years. No more guessing on whether I will wake up feeling restful or tired. Rather, I always wake up rested whenever using this combination, and I in fact have found that I sleep better with this than with the CPAP, the latter of which can be noisy and takes much more maintenance. No more CPAP for me!
I highly recommend the nasivent tube.
Customer Review: Nasivent Tubes work
Summary: 5 Stars
These Nasivent Tubes, really work. I used to buy the nose strips to help my nasal passages stay open when I go to bed. Being an Apnea sufferer, you have to do what ever it takes to keep your nasal passages open and clear. Each morning, I had to peel off the nose srips and take skin with them. These nasal strips are costly and you can only use one a night. I found Nasivent Tubes on line (Amazon), and decided to try them. You get 4 tubes of different sizes, of which one should match your nose. Tried it the first night and it kept my nasal passages open all night long. It is reusable (just wash clean in the morning), and you can use again next night. It helps keep my snoring down and I don't have to rip skin off anymore. The tube is made of a soft rubber material that is not damaging to the inner nose passage. The tubes are connected, so it prevents them from going any further then a few milimeters, just enough to open nose passages. They work.Customer Review: It Works!
Summary: 5 Stars
After years of sleep apnea and dry mouth from swollen nasal passages, I've been using this pair of comfortble little tubes for a few months now. They really work. Some of the other reviews mention that they fall out. The solution I found was to trim them (as the instructions suggest) short enough to insert past the edge of your nostrils. They do not have to fill your entire nostril in order to keep it open. Cut off a little at a time until they are secure and comfey. They come in 4 sizes. Use the largest one you can fit in. They are so soft and pliable you will probably get used to them in no time.
I tried a couple of the other kinds but they were very uncomfortable. Sweet dreams!
Customer Review: Opens my nostrils for sleeping
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, 5 stars for me too. I've used these for 2 weeks straight and know I won't be able to sleep without them. I had nostril surgery 4 years ago to rebuild the walls for support and the right one is closing again. I found this on Amazon and although it's pretty pricey, if it works like for me, it's worth it. If you feel yourself forcing to breath then either the size is too large or you've placed them inside the nostril too deeply. Don't worry about if they hang out, they don't fall out (for me anyway). Thanx to all who took the time to write a review and give suggestions.
