Are you irritable in the morning? Do you suffer from daytime tiredness? Is fatigue affecting your life? Does snoring affect others in your life?

The Snoregem Nasal Dilator is a medically approved device which sits harmlessly at night inside the cavity of the nose. Also included are 8 chin-up strips which assist in training the body to reduce mouth-breathing at night. These should not be required long-term.

How can a Nasal Dilator help?

Most types of snoring are caused by the relaxation and slight closing of the nasal passages. This in turn restricts the airflow to the lungs, and, to compensate, the body automatically allows breathing through the mouth during sleep. Oxygen absorption by the lungs is facilitated by the presence of warm, moist air rather than cold. Normal respiration takes place through the nose, which filters and warms the air by contact with the capillary veins in the nasal passages as inhalation takes place.

A snorer, who breathes through the mouth, inhales a greater volume of cold air. This accounts for the dry, raspy throat in the morning. The sound of snoring is created by the vibrations of the soft tissue at the level of the uvula in the palate / tonsillar area. The vibrations resonate in the sphenoidal sinus, amplifying the noise as high as 80 decibels. The Nasal Dilator gently supports the nasal passages, encouraging normal respiration, and ameliorating the snoring problem. It is precision manufactured from surgical stainless steel, and will last for a long time, unlike its plastic counterparts, which have a short lifespan. The Dilator may help to reduce the noise, but you may also benefit from increasing your general fitness, or losing some weight which will certainly help to tone up the system.

There may be other underlying causes of snoring which need medical attention, perhaps an injury sustained in the past, disease, or excessive alcohol consumption. If in doubt, seek professional medical advice from your doctor.

Chin-Up strips - How can they help?

The nasal dilator should have improved your breathing, allowing you to inhale more easily through the nose. This needs to continue as you sleep. However, if you have been an habitual snorer, you may still have a tendency for your jaw to drop. To avoid this, before you retire-
Check that there is no nasal blockage (a saline solution may be helpful)
Apply the Chin-Up strip and insert the nasal dilator.
This may only be required for a few nights until you have become accustomed to the Dilator.

I did not need to see a doctor to work out that my snoring was caused by having very narrow nostrils; if your body can't get enough air the correct way as you sleep then it will get it through the mouth. If you have constricted nostrils, this device works very well at keeping them open and allowing air to flow freely. However, after using it for a couple of weeks I decided it was just too uncomfortable to wear every night for the rest of my life. Once you stop using it you are certain to return to breathing through your mouth. I think that in my case the only long term fix would be an operation to enlarge the inside of the most constricted part of my nostrils.
