GBAnother option I have sleep apnea and thorougly hate my bi-pap machine. I am always looking for more transportable and less evasive remedies. I was somewhat successful with a dental appliance, but it got damaged and there is a lot of money out of pocket for that device. I had great hope for Theravent, but for me it works kinda sometime. I have a hard time positioning it just right and even if I have I am not sure. I wish the vent areas wear larger or there was some sure way to know it was positioned and working properly. I believe this is a product that could free a lot of Cpap and bipap users, by tweaking it a little bit.

GBSuccess story My husband has been using Theravent for 2 years. It has been a marriage saver for us. We were at the point where we were sleeping in separate rooms and it was horrible! But it was either that or I would get no sleep and be crappy and non productive the next day. I will say the product does what it says it does, which is that it won't "stop" the snoring but reduces the intensity to a tolerable level. I do in addition have to wear ear plugs. I know it sounds like a lot but after a while it becomes very routine. Lately, my husband has been accusing me of snoring (probably an age thing) so we're soon going to be a Theravent couple and if that allows us to continue sleeping together, we're ok wih that.

GBTheravent Max has been wonderful from Day 1 I had been using the regular Theravent for about a year and noticed that it wasn't as effective on my snoring as time went on. I was losing the firmness when breathing out during the night so decided to move to Theravent Max once it became available. From the first night I tried it, it was much more comfortable than the regular Theravent. I like the thicker Max and it stays firm from the time I put it on until I take it off. Even my husband has noticed.

GBCould not breathe I had a very hard time breathing with the Theravent strips on. When I first put them on, I felt as though I was suffocating. I had to make myself concentrate on breathing slowly and easily. Obviously, this isn't sustainable and I could not relax enough to sleep until I removed the Theravent strip.

GBWorks Well This product has significantly improved my sleep quality. The only issue is that sometimes my monthly order does not arrive in time.
