Nasal Dilators
Woody Knows Nasal Dilators — Trial Pack
Nasal dilators gently hold the nostrils open from the inside, improving airflow while you sleep. We recommend starting with the trial pack so you can find your fit.
Tips for success:
-
Start with the XS size, even if it feels small
-
Use them consistently every night — tolerance builds gradually, so don't get discouraged
-
Stay with the XS size until you can comfortably wear them for full nights
-
Once you're sleeping full nights with them, consider moving up a size for even better airflow

Brown Noise Sound Machine
A steady background sound masks the noises that fragment sleep, like traffic, a snoring partner, or a creaky house. This machine offers 30 sound options including white, pink, and brown noise: white noise is bright like static, while brown noise is deeper and softer, like steady rainfall. There's no wrong choice; pick whichever your ear finds easiest to ignore. Many people find brown noise the most soothing.
Tips for success:
- Set the volume just loud enough to mask disruptions, not loud enough to notice; the 36 volume levels make it easy to find that sweet spot
- Place it between your bed and the noise source (a window, a hallway) rather than right beside your head
- Run it continuously rather than using the timers; a sound that shuts off mid-night can wake you when it disappears
- The memory function saves your sound and volume, so it restarts your exact setup with one press each night
- Skip the night light feature, or use its dimmest, warmest setting only if needed; light in the bedroom works against the melatonin timing covered in our circadian handout

Airway Muscle Training
REMplenish Myo-Nozzle & Straw
Chronic mouth breathing weakens the tongue, lip, and airway muscles that support healthy nasal breathing. Retraining them is the goal of orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT), and the Myo-Nozzle builds that training into a habit you already have: it adds gentle resistance to each sip of water, engaging those same muscles every time you drink. No extra time, no extra effort.
- Sip through it throughout the day; frequent short sessions build muscle tone better than one long one
- This kit is Level 2, the resistance designed for adults; a Level 1 version is available on their site for children and anyone who finds Level 2 too challenging at first
- Pair it with the daytime nasal breathing and tongue posture practice from our handout; the nozzle strengthens the muscles while the habits train the pattern
- Hand washing is recommended, though it's top-rack dishwasher safe
- REMplenish backs it with a 90-day guarantee: use it consistently, and if your breathing or sleep hasn't improved, their team will work with you or make it right
