The local sulotion here is nCPAP.
Nasal constant positive airway pressure is applied by cylinder of compressed
air. Apparently all that makes less noise than snoring.

I have a patient who has a problem with snoring. He is not too perturbed
but his wife is not impressed! They have tried various remedies without
success. Has anyone any bright ideas? He refuses to consider the surgeon's
knife, although his wife has threatened the kitchen knife !
