My feedback: I have apnea and I could control it using didgeridoo. However, it does not work if you don’t make it as a kind of meditation exercise too. In my case, I was using it, my apnea was very stable, but when started doing it while watching TV, it stopped working for the apnea…. It is my feedback. By the way I have a didgeridoo made by my self.
These exercises make the muscles in my face that I never even knew I had feel like a day after the gym. Lol. My CPAP machine and mouth tape get my AHI down to 2-3. But it fills my gut up with gas
Bodybuilders have chest day or shoulders day. I have tongue and neck day. Sucks getting old! ...but this does give me hope. The jokes r painful but u provide a great service. JK...the jokes arent bad.
Childhood and teen years of sucking a thumb has raised the roof of my mouth quite high. I think this may have pulled the soft palate area forward. Can you address IF and HOW thumb-sucking would affect the airway. When I push my tongue upward and then pull it toward the back of my maxilla and throat, I feel it presses the sides of my upper jaw outward. Is that helpful or harmful in enlarging my airway? Any studies you know of about thumb-sucking in youth related to sleep apnea later in life? Sleep tests have shown I have sleep apnea, and I am currently using CPAP.
Until I make that video, I would check out Weston A Price's work. You'll have some answers there! Here is a paper to get started with what you've asked: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17695052/
Correct. I went with a straw because I would imagine more people have straws than balloons in their house. However, I am still awaiting that research from the balloon and straw research lobbies (😅).
I can inflate cheeks without breathing in. Isnt that the same? I can skip that breathe in part. When i inflate cheeks ..that is air right? Or air takes up that bigger volume.

happy to help lol. This can help lower your AHI even lower.

You can also stick your finger in your mouth right?
I dont think i can do that thing. Lol
This could be done with balloons too? One will just have to make sure that the push is coming from the cheeks, not lungs.
