Nasal restrictions collapse the nasal valve (the narrowest part of the nasal airway) and stop people from proper nasal breathing, but nasal strips:

Widens the nasal valve: The flexible spring lifts the sidewalls of your nose outward, widening the nasal valve by 17%. Wider valve means less collapse on hard inhales. [32][33][34][37]

Reduces nasal resistance: Nasal strips reduce inspiratory nasal resistance by 33%, creating a sweet spot of easy, smooth nasal breath, with each breath requiring less effort. [26][34][36][37][38]

Delays mouth breathing under load: During exercise, strips reduce the nasal bottleneck, keeping you nose-only for longer & slowing the inevitable switch from nose-only to mouth breathing by 15%. [34][35][36][37]

Stabilises the nasal airways: By supporting the nasal valve during sleep, strips keep airflow smooth & balanced, reducing snoring, with studies reporting 33% fewer snoring events per hour. [22][23][24][25][26]

Nasal strips don't rewire how you breathe. But they do stop your nose getting in its own way, so your body can work the way it was designed.

Heres the honest truth...

We wholeheartedly believe in the power of nasal strips, but we also want to be transparent. Clinical research on external nasal dilatators (nasal strips) is mixed. Many studies show improvements (like the ones above), but an equal number show minimal effects.

The truth is, like many things in published medicine, there simply aren't enough large-scale, randomised control trials & subsequent meta-analysis focused on this exact topic to prove what we at BREATHMODE have found through our own anecdotal evidence:

That nasal strips are a no-nonsense, cost-effective, drug-free, non-invasive aid that can instantly & significantly improve nasal breathing for those 1 in 3 adults who suffer from a nasal restriction.

At the same time, we must also state that nasal strips will not work for everyone. They are not magic (like many of our competitors make them out to be!) and some people simply do not need them because they do not have nasal restrictions.

All we can say is that when we first saw nasal strips, we laughed, then we tried one... and it changed our lives.

All you can do is try them too.
