What are the best masks for a side sleeper? The less cumbersome, the better, but I need one that will stay where it is supposed to be.
thanks
masks
Re: masks
The best masks overall for this are the nasal pillows masks. Lots of people like the Swift FX, but some people find it a bit unstable if you're an active sleeper. The Swift LT and the Opus 360 tend to be more stable nasal pillows masks.

I use the swift fx for her and when I turn on my side it usually does ok. I wear a chin strap also that I put some velcro on to keep it stable. That helps keep the swift stable as well.

Re: masks
I like the optilife and the comfortlite2. I don't toss and turn alot, but they both seem very stable to me.

Re: masks
I only sleep on my side - both left and right. I use the Swift FX for her and find it works very well.
I am going to try the Sleep Weaver next week. Heard that is a good mask for side sleepers also, and extremely comfortable.
