ABSTRACT:
An internal nasal dilator or an external nasal dilator is adapted to provide electrical stimulation. The user applies that nasal dilator to the nose. Within the adhesive portion is an electrode deriving energy from a neuromuscular stimulator. The electrical stimulation enhances air flow to the respiratory system. The nasal dilator may also be an internal variety and may also contain a medication delivery or heating element.
