CPAP Comfort: Strap Covers, Headgear Padding, Comfort Mask Covers

Keeping your CPAP headgear secure is vital for maintaining a firm mask seal. Unfortunately, the tension applied to your headgear and mask straps can quickly become uncomfortable and can lead to headgear overtightening. Comfort is key when it comes to successful sleep apnea therapy. CPAP strap covers offer soft padding around your headgear which helps you wake up free of red marks and skin irritation. If you're looking for solutions, let's give you a rundown of popular comfort covers:

Pad A Cheek CPAP Mask Strap Cover works well with Nasal and Full Face Masks that have a four-point headgear connection such as the Mirage Quattro Full Face Mask, Comfort Gel Blue Full Face Mask, AirFit F20. Pad A Cheeks also offers forehead pads as well if this is a sore spot in your CPAP therapy.

Overall, padded strap covers are great accessories for limiting facial irritation or red marks caused by CPAP headgear, and can be helpful if you experience sensory issues due to the feel of certain headgear materials, such as silicone. Additionally, they can also help keep your face warm, but that’s more of an added bonus than a main feature!
