OptiPillows EPAP Mask for Snoring and Mild-Moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

OptiPillows is a reusable anti-snoring EPAP (Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure) nasal mask for treatment of snoring and mild-moderate OSA.

The mask eliminates the need for tubing, a CPAP machine, or a power supply!

The OptiPillows EPAP mask consists of a nasal pillow type mask with head straps and with a proprietary micro valve on the front of it. The OptiPillows mask allows inhalation with minimal resistance, but with more resistance during exhalation causing the pressure to be elevated. The expiratory resistance can be adjusted according to patient’s comfort. The new EPAP mask is secured in place against the nostrils using light and comfortable head straps that can be adjusted to provide comfort while providing a seal against the nostrils. For treatment of snoring a low level of expiratory resistance may be sufficient.

OptiPillows EPAP Mask allows you to adjust the resistance to find your initial comfort level and gradually increase the resistance from that point until snoring is eliminated.

Please consult with your physician to see if OptiPillows Pillow EPAP Mask is right for you.

How does the OptiPillows EPAP mask work?

During inhalation, the valve opens allowing you to breathe in easily. When you exhale, the valve closes and redirects the expired air through a narrow opening on the side of the valve. This creates Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP) in the mouth which helps keep the upper airways open and prevents snoring and sleep apnea. For better experience, expiratory pressure can be adjusted by rotating the patented valve sleeve to change expiratory resistance.

How much pressure is generated through the OptiPillows EPAP Mask?

The pressure during exhalation can be adjusted by rotating the patented sleeve valve to close or open the side resistance.

  • With resistance fully open, it generates 1 to 3 cmH2O of pressure.
  • With resistance 50% closed, it generates 3 to 7 cmH2O of pressure.​ (similar resistance to Theravent Regular)
  • With resistance 75% closed, it generates 8 to 14 cmH2O of pressure.
  • With resistance 100% closed the pressure is above Provent

How to Acclimate to Your New OptiPIllows Nasal EPAP Pillow Mask?

Like other snoring devices, it may take a few days to become acclimated to the OptiPillows EPAP mask. Sleep may be disturbed the first night or two.

  • Use the lowest resistance setting during the initial days.
  • Increase the resistance only after you are used to it and can fall asleep without problems. The OptiPillows mask generates up to 15 cmH2O pressure when breathing out.

When you start using the OptiPillows EPAP mask, keep the expiratory resistance open wide until you get acclimated. Practice using the mask during the day. It is recommended to use the mask with minimal expiratory resistance until you become fully comfortable sleeping with the mask. Once you are fully comfortable with OptiPillows, close the expiratory resistance about halfway and use it for a night. Then gradually increase or decrease the resistance until you find the best resistance and you will begin to sleep well without difficulty. It is possible that some people will not be able to fall asleep the first time they try it. If that happens, just take it off and get some sleep without it. This may occur for 1-2 weeks until you become accustomed to wearing the device but will feel less invasive through consistent use.
