Doing neck exercises can help in tightening and strengthening neck muscles and the throat muscles as well, which will be beneficial and effective in reducing snoring problems, if not totally eliminating snoring problems. One of the most common reasons why snoring sounds are produced during sleep in many people suffering from snoring problems is that the relaxation of the soft tissue located at the back of the throat. As the soft tissue relaxes the airways will be blocked, and as a natural reaction by the body, it will try to breathe harder and catch breath, which will possibly cause the person to snore.
