SNORING

"This treatment approach is based on original work carried out by Dr Kraft. - See publications."

People who snore at night are often unaware that they have this problem and it is usually their partner who objects. In some instances the snoring is so loud and penetrating that the partner banishes the person who snores to sleep in another room and this can cause marital disharmony. The problem of snoring is increased by the taking or alcohol or sleeping tablets. The first step in the treatment of snoring is to advise the patient not to take these. Unfortunately while this may reduce the severity of the problem it is unlikely to cure it and provided that there are no physical problems patient would be well advised to seek hypnotherapy which is shown to be a very effective treatment.
