Musical instrument therapy device

Abstract

A musical instrument therapy device for providing strengthening therapy for sleep apnea treatment. Utilization of the device can help to strengthen the user's muscles of the throat and tongue, which can help the user to maintain an open airway during sleep (reduce airway collapse) and prevent airway blockages, thereby reducing the chance of obstructed breathing during sleep. The musical instrument therapy device comprises: a tubular body defining an air column; a mouthpiece located at a first end of the tubular body configured to receive a blow input; a mute located at a second end of the tubular body configured to mute the blow input; a plurality of sensors configured to obtain measurements associated with the blow input; a processing unit configured to make one or more determinations associated with blow input based on the obtained measurements; and an indicator configured to display an indication of the one or more determinations.
