Did you know that March is Sleep Awareness Month? It is a time dedicated to spotlighting why healthy rest matters and why so many of us aren’t getting enough of it. One surprising contributor? Snoring.
While snoring is super common, it’s also commonly misunderstood. We tend to chalk it up to someone having a stuffy nose or allergies but experts say it can be a red flag for something far more serious: mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). According to the National Institutes of Health, roughly 1 in 5 U.S. adults has at least mild OSA, but it usually goes undiagnosed.
Unlike nighttime devices or wearables, eXciteOSA is an FDA-authorized daytime therapy designed specifically for snoring and mild obstructive sleep apnea. Instead of addressing symptoms while you’re asleep, the device works during waking hours to strengthen the tongue muscles that help keep your airway open at night.
Just a few minutes of daily use can help retrain the muscles responsible for airway stability. Over time, this can lead to quieter sleep, reduced snoring and improved nighttime breathing.
