Nose Strip Application Guide: Breathe Easier & Reduce Snoring

Nose strips are used by those who snore or suffer from nasal congestion. After you affix one to the outside of the nose, the spring-like nasal strip band opens up the air passages through the nostrils while you sleep. This helps you breathe and keeps your nose from getting stuffy, which also reduces snoring. There is a variety of commercial nose strip products on the market.
