5 Stop Snoring Treatment Tips
By David Richards
If like me you sound like a bear growling a cave when your asleep, then you will no that snoring has a big impact on life. Regardless of the health issues (which are significant) , snoring can play havoc with your relationship.
If you are at you wits end with being woken up every hour either to the sound of your own snoring, or being dug in the back and told to "Roll Over"; or if you are the long suffering sufferer of a snorer, then read over these five tips to snoring treatment.
SNORING TREATMENT TIP 1.
Take a look at your diet. Although this probably won't be the complete snoring treatment answer, it is worth starting with what you're eating and drinking. You could well have intolerance to certain foods which affects your breathing, especially when lying on you back. For example, too much (or an intolerance to) dairy produce is likely to cause you to become blocked up with mucus, when horizontal, this collects causing heavy breathing and snoring. Alcohol is another common offender.
SNORING TREATMENT TIP 2.
Being overweight is another significant contributor. Excess weight in the neck and chest puts pressure on the breathing passage.
SNORING TREATMENT TIP 3
Sleep on you side or front. Now this is easier said than done, because it's hard to control your sleeping position when you are asleep! However, there is an old trick that may be worth considering. You could sow a walnut, table tennis ball or similar size object into the back of a shirt and wear that in bed. Each time you roll on your back it will dig into you, causing you to roll back again – providing you don't take your shirt of in your sleep.
SNORING TREATMENT TIP 4
Use nasal strips. I found these to be very helpful, at least to start with. Nasal strips (often used by athletes) open the air passage for you, thus removing or preventing blockages. If your desperate it's worth a try, but the cost can add up over the days, months and years.
SNORING TREATMENT TIP 5
I've saved the best until last. Exercising the muscles in your throat, tongue and doing breathing exercises can completely cure your snoring. It worked for me and I know it can for you. See my website for more details
My snoring was a problem for the spouse. My wife would often wake me to stop snoring. We found an unexpected solution that has stopped my snoring: The SquidFace and ComfyRest pillows. The snoring relief was an unexpected benefit of an invention I patented for being able to lie facedown comfortably and breathe without turning my head to the side. Snoring relief and many additional pain relief benefits are on my website. www.SquidFace.com
