So you are a snorer? Snoring is the butt of many jokes, but it is not that funny when you or even worse, your partner, snores.

Some of the factors affecting the amount of disharmony from snoring is how loud it is, and how long it lasts.

There are many devices, methods and contraptions on the market attempting to help the snorer. Some of them work, some do not work at all.One of the reasons for the lesser success rate is that people snore for a variety of reasons and you need a device or method that deals with the CAUSE of the snoring.

Products that aim at correcting the symptom of the problem such as chin straps or mouth pieces do nothing to get to the underlying cause, thus, the snoring will return as soon as the device is not worn.

Other natural methods may work to some extent, such as changing position in bed to your side instead of sleeping on your back, yoga, abstaining from alcohol etc. While some of these methods may be helpful, they too will only work as long as you do them.

Addressing the CAUSE of the snoring which is usually A. A weak soft palate. B.Narrow nasal passages. C.Stuffy nose from a cold or allergies. D.Muscles in the throat are weak. E. Muscles supporting the jaw are too tense. And the most common reason: The tongue falls into the throat as you relax and partially blocks the airways.

This is great news. In the same way, (but much easier) you exercise other muscles for tone, the muscles and tissue around your airways can be toned and strengthened by spending a few minutes per day doing easy and pleasant exercises. With toned muscles in your throat and jaw and tongue, your snoring will only exist in your memory. (And in your partner’s)
