"Mouth breathing
can be a primary cause of loud snoring."
"Many individuals who snore mouth breathe
during sleep. Furthermore, the nasal mucosa, which
is by-passed in mouth breathing, may have receptors
which respond to airflow and serve as afferent stimuli
for the neural regulatory mechanisms of respiration."
Aaron Sher, MD

Breathing through your mouth is bad for several reasons,
one of which is that your mouth will dry out, resulting
in loud snoring. By one estimate, as many as 85% of
snorers sleep with their mouths open.

Chin-Up Strip is a patented remedy that aids those
suffering from sleep problems, nocturnal nasal and
sinus congestion and loud snoring. Its effectiveness
has been proven in hospital studies.
100% safe and natural, Chin-Up Strips give
you the prefect non-invasive and drug free snoring remedy.
The strips are die-cut from 3M medical tape
and made from Micro-Pore Rayon. They are designed to
re-direct breathing through the nasal passages to provide
relief from snoring for mouth breathers. By simply changing
from a mouth breather to a nasal breather many causes
of snoring are eliminated. |
However in practice changing to nasal breathing
is easier said, than done. Taping the mouth shut is a method
that has been used successfully, because it forces the snorer
to breathe through the nose as there is no alternative.
The success of this technique relies on overcoming the urge
to take gulps of air through the mouth and keeping the nasal
passages clear to allow enough air to flow. Taping the mouth
can be very disconcerting and claustrophobic especially
if you always tend to get a stuffy nose at night.
The beauty of chin up strips is they don’t
cover the mouth but rather support the bottom lip. The wearer
still has the choice whether to keep their mouth shut or not.
And the wearer can sneeze, cough and even mouth breathe if
they feel they must. The hypoallergenic medical adhesive is
also friendly to cheeks and chin.

Chin-Up Strip Test
- Relax face muscles
- Close mouth
- Inhale through the nose several times
If snoring was not present during the test, the combo
strips may reduce or eliminate snoring. Yes, it can
be that simple and pain free! |
Chin-Up Strip is a simple external support that
is safe to use every night. It has been polysomnogram tested
in hospital sleep labs and proven to be effective in controlling
the primary cause of loud snoring. That is: "The invountary
conversion from primary nasal breathing to primary mouth breathing
after one falls asleep."
Chin-Up Breathing strips continue to be tested on patients in hospital sleep centers as an effective alternative treatment for primary snorer. Patient studies currently in progress at Mission St. Joseph Hospital in Asheville, NC under the direction of Dr. Wm. Finley. Patients are selected in a random manner to use Chin-Up Strips with Cpap. Patient data is being collected to determine if the anecdotal evidence is supported by clinical findings that Cpap compliance levels increase when people who suffer with sleep apnea use Cpap and a Chin-Up Strip during sleep. CPAP & Chin-Up Strips.
Using Chin up strips to keep the mouth shut during the night are both valid and effective aids of relieving mouth snoring. The makers of Chin-Up Strips believe the most important condition precedent for health and wellness is to dedicate one third of life to quiet and restful sleep. For those who recognize the value of the proper quantity of sleep, the Chin-Up Strip will simply control their mouth breathing and snoring so they can obtain quiet and more restful sleep; the same will be true for their bed partner too! Our goal is to "Simply Help the World Sleep(R)"
Chin-Up Strips Can Be Used In Conjunction with
CPAP And Other Snoring Therapy
Some chronic snorers use CPAP therapy (Continuous Positive
Airway Pressure). This therapy uses a pump and mask to force
air down the patient's nasal passages. This opens the airway
and relieves snoring to some extent. However, studies have
found that people who breathe through their mouths are less
responsive to CPAP therapy. This is because the air that is
pumped through the nasal passages then leaks out through the
mouth. The use of Chin-Up Strips relieves this problem. Chin-Up
Strip users are more responsive to CPAP therapy.

If you are a CPAP user and you are experiencing upper
airway problems such as nasal congestion, dry nose, throat
or mouth, it may be caused by mouth leaks. Some patients
find relief from these problems by using Chin-Up Strips.
Chin-Up Strips enhance nasal breathing by keeping the
mouth closed while you sleep. According to the Sleep Center
Director at Mission St. Joseph's hospital in North Carolina:
"I am a member of the CHIN-UP BELIEVERS club.
We use Chin-Up Strip in our sleep lab to help us with
CPAP titration, dry nose, throat and mouth. We advise
each new CPAP patient to obtain the Chin-Up Strips to
be used with CPAP in order to increase their comfort and
compliance." |
"
I belive Chin-Up Strip was the best invention..."
" I belive Chin-Up Strip was the best
invention introduced to UK in 2001. It is great
for CPAP users who suffer from palatal insufficiency
and where the air shortcircuits up to the nose and
out of the mouth"
