Advice on How to Stop Snoring
Some helpful advice for reducing snoring:
  • One cause of snoring is sleeping on your back (head up). Sleeping in this position can limit the free flow of air through the breathing passageways. A simple change of positions, to one such as sleeping on your side, can help open the passage and enable easier (and quieter) breathing.
  • Excess weight can enlarge the internal organs in the breathing passageway and can also contribute to snoring. Maintain a healthy weight and you'll reduce this cause of snoring. In addition, a healthy diet will improve your over-all well-being and produce more productive sleep.
  • Nasal congestion and allergies will also block air passageways and make it difficult to breath during sleep. The symptoms associated with congestion and allergies will be especially worse if you are sleeping on your back.
  • Don't smoke. Yet another healthy reason not smoke, (as if you need another one).
  • Avoid drinking alcohol before bedtime and limit overall alcohol intake.
  • Avoid overeating, especially "heavy" meals before bedtime. .
  • Certain over-the-counter medicines designed for sleeping or dealing with symptoms of congestion, colds or allergies can cause breathing airway relaxation and help make sleeping a noisy activity.

life for more restful sleep, everyday body comfort and improved total well
being. By aligning the body, relieving pressure points and easing muscles people
can make the most of their daily activities whether at home, the office,
traveling or after exercise.



"To be consistently healthy and productive, people need
to sleep well and feel good throughout the day," says Scott Davis, sleep expert
and Contour Products' CEO and founder. "By aligning the body and easing muscles
people can live more comfortably, even when recovering from surgery."



Proven sleep and body support solutions, like those

living. Products such as head and leg pillows, wedge solutions for sleep and
body positioning, back support cushions and mattress pads, cutting-edge travel
pillows and CPAP pillows for sleep apnea patients are the types of items that
can help consumers based on their individual needs. Following, are some specific
solutions and how they effectively address comfort issues:



Soothing Support for the Back, Spine and Body

The Freedom Back with massage features 10 zones that
provide unparalleled orthopedic full back support and reduce muscle strain while
sitting at home, the office or when commuting. It supports the upper back,
shoulder blades and lumbar area and eliminates pressure on the tailbone, hips
and spinal column. Another useful product is the Travel Back with adjustable
lumbar support. It's a portable back aid that folds flat to fit into a purse or

Tired Legs Need TLC

The Butterfly 3-in-1 Pillow features massage and an
innovative hinge design that allows the pillow to open up for multiple uses.
Side sleepers use it as a leg pillow to ease low back pain and align the lower
body. The Butterfly is also used to cradle and massage tense muscles in the
calves or thighs and to ease tired, achy feet after a workout or just after a
long day. The Contour Leg Pillow is another favorite. It aligns the lower back
and hips, relaxes back muscles and relieves strain on the hips, knees and joints
so users wake feeling refreshed. It's great for pregnant women and side
sleepers.
