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. |
