Forum Voices
Some people are skeptical about the benefits of didgeridoo playing for sleep apnea. One person said:
Unfortunately, digeridoo playing is just as disruptive to partner’s sleep as snoring is. Perhaps they should try bagpipes?
On the other hand, some people report positive effects. For example:
A friend of mine started ‘blowing air into water with an straw’ (making bubbles) very seriously. I was very skeptical to say the least; but after a couple of months the effects have been very eye opening.
Another person shared their personal experience:
I started playing didgeridoo 10 years ago for precisely this reason. Sleep apnea already cured by weight loss, but I knew by air pathways were prone to it, and I never wanted it to come back. It worked
Conclusion
While some people report positive effects of didgeridoo playing on sleep apnea, more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
