HOW NORA WORKSSmart Nora is a contact-free snoring solution that’s designed to stop snoring without waking up the snorer or their partner. Nora’s Pebble, a microphone equipped with smart detection algorithms, listens for sounds of snoring. Upon detecting multiple snores, the Pebble activates the silent pump in the Base, to gently inflate and deflate the Pillow Insert. This slight and unnoticeable movement interrupts your snoring. 5

WHY WE SNORESnoring is the result of our airways collapsing as the upper throat muscles relax during sleep. When we breathe through the narrowed airway, we create vibrations that are heard as snoring.WHY NORA IS EFFECTIVE Nora detects early sounds of snoring and gently moves your head by activating a silent pump that inflates and deflates the padded insert sitting under your pillow. This slight movement stimulates the relaxed throat muscles and as a result, the airway assumes its natural position, allowing you to breathe normally once again. This movement lasts about 1 minute, and during this time the device does not activate with sounds of snoring.EFFECTS OF NORATESTER’S SNORING VOLUME WITHOUT NORATESTER’S SNORING VOLUME WITH NORA20 SMART NORA USER MANUAL
