Could 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.

This product works! but the sticky stuff is uncomfortable My spouse reports a nearly-complete cessation of snoring, even with Theravent Lite. I wake up feeling better rested, too, when I use it. But I have thin, sensitive skin, and the sticky stuff really bothers the skin under my nose. I can't wear it for more than 2 nights in a row, and often find myself ripping it off in the middle of the night because my nose hurts. I don't know what you could do about that, but if it could somehow stick a little more gently, I'd use it every night. People who want to try the product, be sure to read ALL the instructions - for example the part about breathing (at least breathing out) through your mouth until you fall asleep. Once you fall asleep, just as they say, you'll naturally start breathing through your nose and the product will do its job. If you have questions, don't hesitate to contact the company - they're super helpful.

Another 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.

Theravent helps prevent snoring over 50% of the time Theravent is helpful however on nights when I have a stuffy nose or when I don't get it placed just right it either makes me miserable (not being able to breathe) or if I loosen it, then my partner hears the snoring. Overall, the product is helpful and many nights it is working. I encourage you to continue working on products that prevent snoring. I tried the "lite" version. I can't see any difference in the screening material however the tape seems to be less and more difficult to use.

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