The invention relates to a device (1) for massaging muscles in the oral cavity comprising a body (3) with drive means (5) and a power unit (7), an extending element (9) detachably coupled to the body (3), and two massage units (11) coupled to an end portion (13) of the extending element (9), wherein the massage units (11) operate with an alternately rotating movement, which rotates about a rotational axis (15) essentially perpendicular to the end portion (13). The invention further relates to a method for massaging muscles in the oral cavity such a device (1), wherein the massage units (11) massage the muscles in the oral cavity with an alternately rotating movement. Even further, the method may be used for reducing or eliminating snoring by massaging muscles in the oral cavity using such a device (1).
A device for massaging muscles in the oral cavity comprising a body with drive means and a power unit, and an extending element detachably coupled to the body, wherein the device comprises two massage units, each arranged on a rotational axis that is essentially perpendicular to an end portion of the extending element, each massage unit comprising a solid body wherein at least one of the two massage units comprises an elliptical shape when viewed in a direction along the rotational axis, wherein the massage units operate with a rotating movement around the rotational axis, and wherein the rotating movement of the massage units is an alternating rotation, alternating between a clockwise and an anti-clockwise rotational angular displacement.
