Firstly, let’s get a better idea of why some snorers sing the song of their people which can rattle windows and keeps those in the vicinity of a whole urban block awake.

Snoring is simply the noise made from the soft tissues in the upper airway (including the nose and throat) vibrating.

Generally this happens when the muscles of the tongue and soft palette relax during sleep and can collapse together.

As a result the air movement is turbulent and causes the vibration and the not so soothing sound of snoring.
