If you and your spouse suffer from horrible snoring, You are not alone. 23% of couples suffer seriously from this terrible condition. The problem isn't just the irritation of staying awake the whole night or waking up from a souse's elbow over and over again. Not getting enough rest is simply life threatening.
Losing your focus in heavy traffic during the day can be life threatening. If you are distracted for only a few seconds, you could easily wind up in a terrific accident. Another way loss of sleep can affect you is when your emotional and physical well being are out of balance. The result could be heart attack, nervous breakdown or stroke for example.
Neither you nor your partner are to blame. And surely you have attempted some sort of treatment to eliminate the snoring altogether. Hopefully you haven't done like some who have had expensive, dangerous surgery in an attempt to solve the problem only to be worse off afterward.
In order to cure snoring you must be aware of what causes it. It is always caused by some sort of blockage in the air passageways. When these passageways become blocked, the airflow becomes irregular and doesn't flow like it should. The restricted airflow then slams the soft tissue in the passageways around like a door in the wind. Your mouth and throat amplify the sound like speakers powered by a powerful amplifier and your partner can't sleep.
The noise becomes really bad when the soft palate (a flexible part of the back of the roof of the mouth) also begins to vibrate. Sometimes, if the soft palate is weak, then the tip of it will bang down on the tongue (which may be dropping into the throat at the same time) like a bongo drum.
Curing snoring is complicated even though there is only one main cause. The reason is because most people have more than one type of blockage causing their snoring.
Here are just few examples of what can cause your snoring:
1) Weak tongue also falls into the throat and blocks it. This is very common if you sleep on your back but can also happen when sleeping on your side.
2) Breathing passages blocked due to pressure from tense jaw muscles. Many dentists try to solve this problem by putting in dental implants. It is far easier to avoid this by loosening and relaxing your jaw muscles.
3) I mentioned the soft palate before. If it is weak, then it will flap around more easily and make the snoring sound. Notice that most of the time the soft palate is not too big. Its too weak.
4) Additionally the soft palate may be too weak and will lay too close to the tongue. This makes it very easy for it to flap around and make those horrendous snoring sounds.
5) Things that build up in the throat can work as a dam in your breathing passages. Some common dams are allergy in the sinuses, or fat or cigarette tars in the throat.
Can you get rid of the blocks that cause you to snore?
I guess when you look at it, its just a common sense. Ive found that you can train this part of your body like any other part. Working out the breathing passages. Using a few exercises, each focused on one area in and around your throat, will remove ANY block you have. No matter whats causing your snoring. The simplicity of this is that no matter what blocks your breathing passages the same few exercises will cure you.
Training the tongue will strengthen it and by doing that prevent it from dropping into your throat when you sleep.
Using the jaw exercises to loosen it up removes tension from it. Don't be surprised at how much easier you breath after a few sessions of the jaw exercises.
To prevent the throat from closing when you are asleep you can do throat exercises which also strengthen and lift the soft palate keeping it from flapping any more.
You must work smart, not hard. You choose how long each day you want to work out. The shortest time should be three minutes. However long you train every day is up to you. If you want long term results immediately, it is best to choose to do a program requiring a ten minute per day commitment.
The exercises work more quickly for some than for others but if you go in prepared to do the training and exercises for a full two months, you will in all likely hood stop snoring sooner than that. If you are ready to really work hard for two full months you are guaranteed a cure for your snoring. You should be prepared to commit to a two month program to effect a permanent cure. There is a good possibility you will be sleeping like a baby long before the two months are up. As will your partner!!!
I'm looking forward to receiving your success stories. Nothing is more encouraging than opening email and reading how people healed themselves using the exercise programs.
Snoring has put a great strain on many relationships. some people have resorted to sleeping separately while others have learned to live with it. There may still be some hidden resentment so I hope you give the exercises a try. Please commit to doing the exercises for a couple of weeks and I promise you, you will have many quiet restful nights in the future. - 16083
