The exciteOSA Tongue Stimulator for Sleep Apnea is an electronic mouthpiece that gently clamps the tongue and emits electrical pulses. This process — known as neuromuscular electrical stimulation — is intended to tone the tongue and upper airway muscles, making them less likely to collapse and obstruct your airway. The device is intended to reduce symptoms of mild obstructive sleep apnea (AHI <15) and snoring

Use the stimulator for 20 minutes each day for the first 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, you may scale back to 20-minute sessions twice a week. Only use the device when you’re awake.

  • Mouthpiece is made of medical-grade silicone
  • Bluetooth control unit connects to mouthpiece with a USB-C port
  • LED battery life indicator at base of control unit
  • For users 18 and older
  • Wash mouthpiece before and after each use
  • USB cable for charging included with purchase
  • 3-month warranty for mouthpiece and 1-year warranty for control unit


We recommend this product for:

  • People with mild obstructive sleep apnea
  • Heavy snorers who have not been diagnosed with sleep apnea
  • Anyone 18 years or older who does not have gum disease

Part of your everyday

A quick and easy daytime therapy to help you sleep at night.

  • 20 minutes a day

    One 20 minute therapy session per day will significantly reduce snoring and improve mild obstructive sleep apnea within 6 weeks.

  • Easy to use

    Sticking to the therapy is easy. eXciteOSA is simple and conveniently portable, so you can use it anytime during the day, anywhere!

  • Sleep freely

    Unlike night-time treatments, the effects of eXciteOSA daytime therapy last throughout the night, leaving you to sleep freely from night-time wearables.

Targeted therapy

eXciteOSA delivers targeted Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) to tone the upper airway muscles and tongue to prevent them from collapsing in the airway.

The Science

NMES applied to the tongue: a new, FDA-cleared and patient-friendly daytime therapy helping to treat a common root cause of mild obstructive sleep apnea and snoring.

Combining two established concepts has led to a revolutionary daytime therapy

  • The Tongue: Research has shown that individuals with OSA have impaired genioglossus (tongue) endurance compared to those without OSA.
  • NMES: Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of skeletal muscles is associated with an improvement of muscle endurance4-5.

Who's it for

  • People with mild obstructive sleep apnea
  • Heavy snorers who have not been diagnosed with sleep apnea
  • Anyone 18 years or older who does not have gum disease

What's the difference between TENS and NMES?

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) machines stimulates the sensory nerves (the nerves that send signals from the body to the brain) with the purpose of disrupting the pain signal.

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) also uses electrical stimulation, but targets the motor nerves (the nerves that send signals from the brain to the body) in order to stimulate the muscles directly.

Sensory and motor nerves fire at different frequencies, which is how TENS and NMES devices are able to impact them differently.

What are the benefits of NMES for sleep apnea?

eXciteOSA® is a user-controllable neuromuscular electrical stimulator (NMES) that delivers a mild electrical current with defined frequencies to stimulate and improve muscle function in the mouth and tongue.

Unlike traditional sleep apnea treatments, eXciteOSA® targets the tongue to promote endurance of the muscle, thereby reducing airway collapse and snoring during sleep.

A daytime therapy with no night-time wearable necessary for a better night’s sleep.

Why eXciteOSA and not an alternative such as CPAP?

There are several options for treating sleep apnea.

Manudibular advancement devices (MADs) work by temporarily moving the jaw forward, in order to create more space in the airway.

CPAP delivers air pressure through a mask to open up the airway.

Surgery is usually an option to consider after other treatments have failed. Examples include removal of soft tissues from the airway, or procedures designed to stiffen the airway.

NMES physiologically retrains the upper airway and tongue to maintain the tongue’s natural position while you sleep, effectively helping your body help itself. eXciteOSA for sleep apnea is the only device that delivers NMES.
