Other factors The simple fact is as with most health issues life style plays an important part and this is just the same with snoring.

The anti-snore ring is a metal band that fits on the small finger (or on both if you are a really heavy snorer) between the knuckle and the first joint. Inside the band are two small bumps that apply a light constant pressure. You can purchase a snore ring for around $50 or a little cheaper on-line. They should be worn for about 30 minutes before bed and when you are asleep How do they work? They are supposed to work by a method called acupressure which is a ancient healing method discovered in Asia about 5000 years ago. Basically the two bumps inside the ring put pressure on certain energy lines in the body that stimulate the heart and lungs improving breathing. Do anti-snoring rings actually work?
