Have you tried the more naturall, non-invasive things yet?

Here are some of those non-invasive tips to stop the snoring:

• sleep on your side – there’s a higher change of snoring if you lie on your back, and sleeping on your stomach will kill your neck.
• keep a regular sleep schedule – and make sure you get enough sleep, many people snore only when they are overly tired
• elevate your head when sleeping – you can increase the angle of your bed by raising the head of the bed or use pillows to your upper body, don’t just raise your head that’ll put more pressure on your air way and have the opposite effect.
• avoid alcohol and tranquillizers – they basically cause the muscles of your jaw and throat to relax, increasing your changes of snoring.
• Treat your allergies – if your nose is stuffy it may force you to breathe through your mouth when sleeping. If your nose is stuffed I recommend using a netie pot, the are incredibly effective, natural and pretty cheap toO.
• buy a mouth guard – mouth guards will keep your jaw muscles from relaxing too much, and prevent snoring. It may not be too attractive to your significant other but it’ll help you both get some sleep!
• Lose weight – when you’re heavier the extra weight puts pressure on your airway, causing snoring.
• if you smoke try to stop – smoking damages your respiratory system, which doesn’t help in the snoring department

Excessive snoring may also mean you have a more serious problem like sleep apnea.

If you wake up with a headache, are extremely tired during the day, don’t feel refreshed when you wake up, have trouble concentrating or a very low attention span, or wake up during the night choking and gasping for breath you should probably see a doctor.

Mild snoring that isn’t related to sleep apnea responds well to home remedies. Finding a cure for your snoring problem can result in an improved quality of life for you and your loved ones.

An effective and pretty simple solution is doing throat excercises, here’s a website with interesting information on the snoring excercises: http://tinyurl.com/y8e9c2k

It is generally not effective. You need to have a sleep study to find out what the problem is. Then if you are looking to have surgery you need to know where the obstruction in–nose, tonsils, uvula, tongue, etch. The best treatment is cpap or a dental device. See a board certified sleep specialist and have a sleep study.
