Hello, I was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea and it was suggested I begin CPAP therapy. While I want to get better sleep, CPAP seems like an incredibly intrusive experience and I’m worried it will be difficult to adjust to, so I’m looking into other potential solutions. I hear nasal strips that open your nasal airways are can help. Is this a good place to start before I commit to CPAP?
Sorry to say, but if you really have sleep apnea, nasal strips aren’t going to cure you. At best they may help a mild snorer.
Yea I don’t think this is an actual alternative to CPAP. I used for a while before I was diagnosed try and give my wife some relief from my snoring. It kinda worked but it didn’t improve my sleep at all.
