Alise Ojay quotes: “It is especially important for snorers, and critically important for those suffering from sleep apnea, to keep their breathing apparatus healthy: they will already be suffering from reduced oxygen intake and need a fit diaphragm to keep on drawing in air despite experiencing an obstruction.”

This routine created by Ojay and Professor Edzard Ernst of University of Exeter has been tested on 20 subjects over the course of 3 months. The routine consisted of vocal exercises approximately 20 minutes long and had to be done daily. The very impressive results made a piece of International Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery.
The Smithsonian Magazine also reported results from snorers who committed to these exercises. Snorers who were successful in reducing their snoring were in their age, did not suffer from any nasal problems and weren’t overweight.
