Reviews Ruby Adjustable Chin Strap by PureSom

Use this Ruby Adjustable Chin Strap if you fall asleep with your mouth open. Well most of us don't really know if we do until we wake ourselves up from snoring. I have sleep apnea and use a CPAP machine and was not getting results until three years later when I purchased this chin strap last May, I lost twenty-five pounds without trying!

This Ruby Adjustable Chin Strap is a high quality product and really works, because of its unique design, when most chin restraints fail because they slip off in the middle of the night. Sleep Restfully was very helpful in making sure that I got the right size, which was important because the sizes tend to run a lot smaller than regular hat sizes, because of the stretchy nature of the material and the need for it to fit snug to work.
The Ruby Adjustable Chinstrap is an updated design from the original Tiara Topaz Adjustable Chinstrap. Cardinal Health has upgraded this product with Breathe-o-Prene material and an improved Velcro attachments.The design of the adjustable chinstrap can push your jaw backwards, which may inadvertently increase the severity of your sleep apnea.

If you use the CPAP and your mouth opens while you sleep, air fills your stomach, causing you to feel bloated and look out of shape. Also, you will immediately feel the difference because you will not feel famished when you wake up in the morning because losing vital oxygen can make you feel like eating way more than you should first thing in the morning.

This Ruby Adjustable Chin Strap by PureSom mask works wonders. Please look at the picture carefully so that you will put it on correctly. Feeling rested is really appreciated when you haven't slept well in years! I'm getting one for my aunt who has started to give up on her CPAP therapy. Don't give up! Try this chin strap with your CPAP mask. You will feel alive again.

Sizing Instructions for TMS-09 Series Chin Straps. You will require a cloth tape measurer and an assistant. Have the assistant measure1/2 head circumference, follow these 2 steps:

UPDATE: I'd better pass on this tip. This chinstrap has turned out to be even better than I had originally thought, since I discovered that I was putting it on wrong!

My natural inclination was to put my head through the largest of the three openings, with the label ending up in the back of my head, but near the top. But this caused the front vertical straps to come down annoyingly close to my eyes.

Now I have discovered that this was wrong!

Instead, I put my head through the middle-sized opening, with the label ending up in the back of my head but way down near my neck. That puts my face through the largest opening, allowing the front vertical straps to stay out of my face and end up on the side of my head just in front of my ears. This is much, much more comfortable all the way around, and holds my chin a little snugger too.
