Homeopathic Medication
Homeopathic medicines have been used for centuries to deal with a wide range of health concerns, including snoring. A popular homeopathic medicine under the trade name Snore Stop™ is proving to be effective as a stop snoring remedy for some snorers by dissolving secretions in the nose and throat, thus opening up the airway.
Another popular homeopathic nose drop called Y-Snore™ is also receiving some critical acclaim as a stop snoring remedy from snorers and non-snorers alike. Y-Snore is a mild, non-addictive decongestant, which helps open up the nasal passage and thus inhibits/prevents airflow vibration in the trachea during sleep. (We'll be looking at some herbal remedies on the next page.)
Magnetic Therapy
Though not yet widely known in the west, magnetic therapy is extremely common in other parts of the world, particularly in China. Magnetic therapy can act as a stop snoring remedy, helping snorers by stimulating the nerves in the nose, thereby opening up the airway to the throat, and cutting down on potential vibration (and thus snoring).
Magnets can also be applied to the entire body (i.e. not just focused on the nose) to help stimulate nerves and body processes that can indirectly help deal with snoring.
For example, some people have relied upon magnetic therapy as a part of an overall weight-loss program. Since excess weight/obesity is often linked with snoring, magnetic therapy can, ultimately, help treat and/or reduce snoring.
Another stop snoring remedy is the use of a nose ring with earth magnets (under the brand name Snore Free™). This has received some positive feedback from those who have used it to open the nasal passage.
Hypnosis
Believe it or not, but hypnosis has been suggested as a stop snoring remedy for some people. It has not, however, been widely accepted as a potential solution; and as such, it does not get an expanded discussion here. However, it would be remiss not to note that many people are in fact relying upon hypnosis to deal with a number of health ailments, including snoring.
Additional Alternative Therapies
In addition, there are numerous alternative stop snoring therapies that are generating growing attention as potential anti-snoring options. These additional alternative therapies include: the use of crystals and gems, light therapy, and color therapy.
The efficacy of these potential solutions is being tested, and scientific research on these methods is not yet well established; and hence, we will not explore them further here. However, this does not mean that they lack promise; for they do.
As any snorer or someone who lives with a snorer will attest, anything that promises a healthy, long-term, safe, and surgery-free solution to snoring is a good idea, no matter how far fetched that idea may seem today!
