Nasal Flow Strip | Black

Pre-application: for the best results, clean and dry the nose first. Moisturiser, zinc and other such products can impact the adhesion.

Placement: place the strip just under the bridge of your nose. An easy way to find the right spot is to run a finger down the side of your nose. You will feel where the bone ends and becomes soft cartilage. Right where the nose feels soft is where you want to place your strip, so you can open the nasal passages most effectively.

Removal: for very sensitive skin, using warm water can be helpful for smooth removal.

• Latex-free 
• Medical-grade adhesive

Nasal strips are simple mechanics. A spring-like strip across the bridge of your nose gently lifts the sides of the nostrils, widening the nasal valve, the narrowest part of your airway and where most of the resistance to airflow sits. Reviews of the research consistently find that strips enlarge the valve's cross-sectional area and reduce nasal resistance.

Do they open the airway? Yes. In a randomised study, strips increased maximum nasal inspiratory flow by supporting the walls of the nostrils, which otherwise tend to collapse inward when you breathe in hard. A placebo-controlled study of 53 athletes measured a significantly larger nasal valve area with the strip on. A systematic review of 14 studies concluded that nasal dilators improve nasal breathing.

Why nasal breathing matters. Your sinuses produce nitric oxide, a gas that is carried into the lungs when you breathe through your nose. In a Karolinska Institute study, skin oxygen levels were around 10% higher during nasal breathing than mouth breathing in 75% healthy adult participants. 

Built for training. As effort climbs, your body can default to mouth breathing. In exercise testing, nasal strips delayed that switch by about 15% and lifted maximum nasal airflow by about 15% before it happened. In a study of 49 people doing all-out sprint tests, percieved exertion with oral breathing was significantly higher. This study also found that nasal breathing resulted in a significantly faster post-exercise muscle recovery.

What strips don't do. Strips open your nose. They aren't a treatment for sleep apnoea. If you have ongoing breathing problems during sleep, talk to your doctor.
