Snoreeze Oral Strips

Snoring can effect either your own sleep pattern or disturb your partners, making any bedtime sleep routine a nightmare.

Snoring is caused by the vibration of the soft tissue in your head and neck as you breathe in.

When asleep the airways narrow and relax in your head and neck which is then thought that this narrowing increases the speed you breathe out which then changes air pressure in your airways. 
The cause of these changes make the soft tissue vibrate by sucking the sides of the airways in.

Snoring can also occur when your suffering from colds or enlarged tonsils that result in partially blocked airways.

Evidence has shown that snoring left untreated can result in snoring getting worse over time and can result in damage to blood vessels that supply muscles in the head and neck to become weaker.

The vibrations from snoring weaken these muscles which result in their ability to keep your airway open.

Factors that can play a role to increase your risk:

Obesity: If you have a large amount of fat around your neck and have a neck circumference of more than 43cm (17 (inches) usually snore a lot.

Alcohol: Alcohol relaxes your muscles when you sleep, which increases the narrowing of your airways.

Sedatives/Antidepressants: In some people, these medications can have similar effect to alcohol on the muscles.

Smoking: Tobacco smoke can cause your airways to become inflamed, which causes greater narrowing of the airways.

Allergic Rhinitis/Allergies:

The inside of your nose becomes swollen and inflamed as a result of an allergic reaction to the substances such as dust or pollen.

There is no guaranteed cure for snoring but Snoreeze offer many different products to relieve symptoms, to help you gain a more peaceful night sleep.
