Like many others, I suffer from a dangerous condition known as obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA. I don’t know exactly when it started, but I remember that a few people told me that I snored terribly. Eventually, I began to wake up more and more during the night. For about five years, I don’t think I slept for more than an hour at a time. After getting to the point that I felt like I was walking around in an endless mental fog, I finally made an appointment to see my doctor and was told that I probably had OSA.

Most people would have been depressed to hear that they had a chronic health condition, but I was so excited. Finally, the doctor would have an answer to my constant fatigue, and I’d be back to my old self in no time. He told me to make an appointment for a sleep study, and they’d decide how to help me. After waiting for months for the appointment, I don’t think I even closed my eyes all night long. Between the wires and the anxiety about being monitored, I was just too nervous. They gave me a prescription for one of those CPAP devices and sent me on my way.

Again, I was excited by the prospect of a good night’s sleep. While this weird device might be great for some people, I just couldn’t get the hang of sleeping with it. I was never a back sleeper, and this thing just kept getting in my way. Add in a bad case of dry mouth and air blowing in my face all night, and I was getting less sleep than ever. I didn’t want surgery, so I decided to see what other remedies were out there.

After searching for awhile, I stumbled across the Stop-Snoring Chinstrap from MySnoringSolutions.com . It looked comfortable and well-made, so I decided to give it a try. Unlike similar products, this one had a cap that evenly distributed the pressure across my entire head and an extra wide strap. Just one night of great sleep with this product made me wish I’d never wasted my time and money on fancy sleep studies and that awful CPAP machine.

With sleep apnea, you have this little bit of soft tissue in the back of your throat that fills up your airway when you relax during sleep. This prevents you from breathing until you wake up just enough to clear it. While I knew that I was waking up at least once an hour, I was really waking up constantly based on what everyone has always told me about my terrible snoring. A snore signals that a person has woken up just enough to clear their airway.

Here is a 3-minute Video about this Stop Snoring Device:

The Stop-Snoring Chinstrap keeps my jaw in place to prevent that little bit of tissue from slipping down and preventing me from breathing. By keeping my jaw in an upward position, it maintains just the right amount of open space to prevent the blockage. Now that I sleep with this comfortable chin-strap, I wake up feeling refreshed from a full-night’s sleep. The very best part is that the snoring has stopped, too. That means my wife gets to sleep just as good as I do!
