The practice of mouth taping

Mouth taping is a simple, yet effective way to promote nose breathing during sleep or exercise. Resty has created mouth tape especially designed to safely mouth tape during sleep. It’s made from breathable, hypoallergenic tape to avoid skin irritations or reaction. It’s not too sticky to cause any damage, but sticky enough to keep the lips closed. When mouth taping, the goal is not to keep the lips forcefully shut. Rather, it’s to evoke a neurological reminder to keep breathing through the nose. If the mouth needs to be opened at any point, it can be easily done. Besides that, Resty Sleep Tape is non-invasive and non-addictive, and therefore completely safe to use
