   Yes.

   The most effective natural treatment only applies to overweight individuals who exhibit snoring, and that is weight loss. Weight loss is effective in reducing snoring and sleep apnea because it reduces the amount of tissue that puts pressure on the throat. Also, sleeping on your side rather than your back will improve snoring for many people.

   Medical treatments for snoring are mostly surgery. These include adenoidectomy, tonsilectomy, surgery of the soft palate, and maxillilo-mandibular advancement (usually curative).

   Another possible treatment is a dental devices that brings the lower jaw foreword while you sleep.

   There are also medications to treat snoring and sleep apnea, but they may cause insomnia.

   The doctor you should see to discuss snoring intervention is an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist (an ENT), they address this problem on a daily basis and will likely be able to recommend several treatment options to you. I hope this answer was of help, take care.

   You've tried the breath-right strips I assume?

   If the snoring is caused by blocked air passages, rhinoplasty (plase surgery for the nose) could be an option. Many people have rhinoplasty for narrow or blocked nasal passages, it's not just for appearance.

   Nasty surgery though.

   Stop Snoring Naturally with IJustWantToSleep®!

   This program is a series of tongue exercises shown to stop snoring and more. IJustWant ToSleep offers a completely non-invasive option that can even be done while watching TV, in the shower, or driving to work, therefore adding no extra time to your busy schedule. It has a 94% success rate!

   How can this help?
   Some people tend to snore when they breathe through their mouth while sleeping and their tongue is incorrectly positioned within the oral structure, effectively blocking their airway. The IJustWantToSleep program is intended to help snorers who experience these particular problems by retraining the tongue muscles so that the tongue will rest in the correct position inside the mouth. Our preliminary study findings have shown that this retraining technique has alleviated snoring, and other problems commonly associated with snoring when it is due to mouth breathing and an incorrect tongue position.

   You may wake up feeling tired and have reduced energy during the day. Our body tends to get used to feeling a certain way and we forget or are unaware of how much better we could feel if we actually slept better. That's where the IJustWantToSleep program comes in.

   You'll find hundreds of cures for snoring, some more reputable than others, certainly some that are more effective than others. Before you invest in any solution, take our questionnaire, which will help you determine which remedies are more likely to work for you.

   If you already have some idea of which remedy you should try, select from one or more of the categories below:

   Lifestyle changes
   All the usual vices worsen snoring: alcohol, smoking, overeating, under exercising, caffeine. What did you expect?!

   Sleep Posture Correction
   Many of us snore especially loudly when we sleep on our back. Various pillows and strap-on devices are available to get you unsupine.

   Homeopathic remedies
   Some people have had success with natural remedies available in health food stores and over the Net.

   Throat sprays
   These coat the soft tissues of the throat with lubricating oils, allowing the air to move more freely and lessening the noisy vibration.

   Nasal dilation
   These include adhesive strips which hold open the airways of your nose, plastic devices to hold open your nostrils, and nasal sprays which reduce congestion or the swelling of nasal tissues.

   Mouth breathing correction
   Many people would snore less if they would just learn to breathe through their nose. This page lists products that will shut your mouth…

   Mouthpiece devices
   Devices are available — some custom-fitted by your dentist — which pull your lower jaw or tongue forward, thereby creating enough space in the throat to prevent breathing obstruction.

   CPAP (Continuous Positive Airways Pressure)
   Machinery which blows air through your nose via a mask, preventing disruption of breathing and eliminating snoring.

   Palatal inserts
   The approach here is to reduce the vibration of your throat tissues by stiffening them with permanent (but reversible) inserts of polyester material.

   Palate stiffening by scarring
   You can achieve palate stiffening and reduce noisy vibrations by injecting a scarring solution (injection snoreplasty) or surgically by creating scarring with laser or scalpel.

   Radiofrequency Tissue Reduction: Somnoplasty and Coblation
   Radiofrequency Tissue Reduction (RFTR) consists of piercing the tongue, throat or soft palate with a needle connected to a radio frequency generator. Inner tissues shrink, but outer tissues, which contain your taste buds, are left intact.

   Surgery
   Various surgical procedures with names like uvulopalatoplasty are available which remove or shrink palate and throat tissue, making it easier for you to breathe.

   Hypnosis, aromatherapy and other alternative approaches
   These pages collect any off-the-wall remedy we come across. We don't endorse any snoring remedy on this site, but we try to document them all.

   There are these "strips" that you put on your nose- "Breathe Right Strips". They are the newest fad, and a lot of people say that they work.
