Therapy Procedure

The Silent Sleep Training is divided into four phases, after completing the third phase you only need 30 minutes per month to maintain your throat musculature.

Phase 1

In the first phase of Silent Sleep Training, you learn everything you need to know to successfully carry out Silent Sleep Training. The course lasts two to seven days and is structured in a step-by-step guide that easily leads you through the exercises. At the end of the course, you are ready for the training phase, where you put what you have learned into practice.

Phase 2

In the training phase, you train your throat musculature to prevent the collapse of the airways while sleeping. This training phase lasts between three and six months. During this time, you should train six times a week for 15 minutes each time. To make your training fun, you play little games with the tones you have learned. The app is essential for training.

Phase 3

After the training phase, you start with the consolidation phase. In this phase, we stabilize your achieved success. This phase lasts eight weeks, and you should train twice a week for 15 minutes each with the app.

Phase 4

To keep your throat musculature trained, you should do a training session with the app two to four times a month, each lasting 15 minutes. With this minimal effort, you prevent a recurrence of your sleep apnea.
