Read our guide to help you pin-point solutions to your snoring issues.

Support

A pillow that does not support your neck and head properly can cause snoring. If your head and neck are not properly supported your airways can be restricted. This puts undue stress on your throat muscles and causes snoring.

Try: The Tempur Original range of pillows are waved shaped with two heights to offer an optimal sleeping posture.  The memory foam inner moulds to the shape of your head and neck giving you extra support and helping to keep your airways open.

Try: Dunlopillo Kontour has been designed to give you support and comfort. The wave shape offers two height levels and Dunlopillo’s natural latex filling offers cooling comfort with its unique pores that let excess heat escape. This pillow is ideal for helping keep your airways open and offering superb comfort.

Allergies

Many people suffer from allergies particularly in the bedroom, dust mites can cause inflammation in the nose and throat and this can cause snoring.

Try: Anti allergy bedding such as Allersafe are blended with Amicor Pure Acrylic Fibre that inhibits the growth and development of dust mites.  Snoring that is caused by a dust mite allergy brings the dual distress of irritated throat and nose combined with snoring. The Allersafe range of bedding can prevent the allergic reaction and improve snoring.

Breathing

Open your mouth and try to make a snoring noise. Then close your mouth and try and make the same noise. If you can only make the noise with your mouth open then you’re a mouth breather.

Try: The Sleep Guard Anti Snoring Mouth Guard has been clinically proven to reduce snoring.  A recent study in the UK of 25 heavy snorers found that the use of snore mouthpieces was effective in eliminating snoring in 84% of the subjects.

Alternative Therapy

Acupressure is an ancient Chinese practice dating back to 300 B.C. The method applies pressure to certain parts of the body to alleviate pains or conditions. Acupressure is a safe, natural and non invasive method of targeting snoring.

Try:  Good Night Anti Snore Ring uses acupressure to help eliminate snoring and work in harmony with your body's bio rhythms. The ring uses two acupressure points, SI2 & HT9 to help alleviate snoring and increase the natural flow of your body's energy. We are so confident in this product, that if you are not satisfied with the ring within the first 30 days we offer a money back guarantee!
