Do Snoring Chin Straps Work?
Snorers are constantly looking for a solution to their problem so they will try just about anything to make it go away! Chin straps are not a new solution but it is one that has been around in various forms for awhile. Basically a snoring chin strap is just a fabric cup that hooks on the chin with adjustable straps that go over your head – sexy it is not!
But do they work? The basic principle is that the chin strap supports your jaw so that it stays in a closed position while you sleep. Otherwise when you fall deeply asleep you lose muscle tone everywhere in your body – that includes your jaw. But specifically it means your tongue and airway surrounding it also relaxes to the back of your throat so it allows you to snore!
The “not so sexy” chin strap keeps your jaw forward and your tongue from dropping back so that your snoring is gone. What is great about this is that it is an affordable option that is easy to use and should provide you with immediate results – if it works. It is also better than trying nasal sprays and taking medicines or other pharmaceutical “fixes” for snoring relief. It has to be better than putting a stop snoring mouth guard or other device in your mouth to prevent the snoring or using a CPAP machine that is the same type of equipment – all trying to solve the same problem of snoring.
Many people claim that it is a winner but there are some drawbacks as follows:

Many people claim that it is a winner but there are some drawbacks as follows:
- You have a silly looking device wrapped around your head each night that we already know is unsightly to say the least – particularly if you have a partner sleeping with you.
- It is uncomfortable to have something wrapped around your head particularly if you don’t want your hair to be a terrible mess in the morning.
- With straps to adjust the fit the chin strap might come off or not be placed correctly to be effective – therefore you have looked ridiculous for nothing!
