How do I put on the Deluxe Chin Strap?
- Unfasten the Velcro closures on both the wide strap and the smaller stability strap.
- Position the wide strap under the chin and ensure that it covers the jawline. The wider part of the strap should be centered under the chin for optimal support.
- Wrap the wide strap around the head and over the ears.
- Fasten the Velcro closure of the wide strap, adjusting it for a comfortable yet secure fit. Make sure it's snug enough to keep the mouth closed during sleep, but not too tight to cause discomfort.
- Position the smaller stability strap at the back of the head, wrapping it around the wide strap to keep it in place.
- Fasten the Velcro closure of the stability strap, adjusting it as needed to ensure the chin strap remains secure and comfortable throughout the night.
- Finally, put on your CPAP or BiPAP mask, ensuring it fits comfortably on top of the chin strap.
I do not use a CPAP machine, but use the strap, along with tapping my mouth, to force nose breathing. The strap applies vertical pressure on my chin and not backward pressure. It does not cover my ears which is much more comfortable and permits wearing reading glasses prior to going to sleep. Unfortunately the strap is out-of-stock at Respshop.
Bought another model that was horribly represented and they don't refund. Even though its sizes wrong. They gave me points to use. So had to purchase another model of course more.money and ridiculously overpriced shipping. Which defaults to the most expensive method hoping you won't notice. But got my new chin strap and it's so big it chokes me cutting into my neck when I lay down. So I have to move it forward which then causes indentarions and creases all over my face. Will never waste my money at this knock off garbage retailer again.
