Since everything my psyiotherapist told me so far made so much sense and had already helped me more than anything else so far, I decided to give it a go and buy one.
At first, I was skeptical. I didn't see how a stupid little device would help get rid of snoring. But after getting this Silentsleep and wearing it in bed for 10 minutes, my snoring seemingly disappeared! My snoring was 80% gone within the first few days. After using it for a few weeks, I could breath better and I was able to go through each night without snoring.
I felt so relieved that I didn't have to go down the surgery path and that I was able to get back to living a normal life.
Curious about exactly how it worked, I went back to my physiotherapist to ask. This is what I was told:
"The SilentSleep uses gentle electric pulses in a technique called neuromuscular stimulation to address snoring. When it detects snoring, it sends these pulses to specific neck muscles, stimulating nerves and muscles responsible for airway tone. This helps keep the airway open during sleep, reducing or eliminating snoring."
With how quiet our bedroom became, I knew that silentsleep really did something right.
