Yes, many ways. You can sleep on your side. You can buy those nasal strips that open up your nasal passages. there is also a surgery that can be preformed where they cut a flap of skin right where your nose and throat connects. When you snore, you breath through your nose and mouth at the same time, so they cut that flap.

A relatively new surgical procedure for snoring, typically done in the doctor's office, is radio frequency tissue ablation (RFTA) with the trade name Somnoplasty. Like LAUP, more than one session may be needed.
Another surgical system designed to treat snoring (as well as obstructive sleep apnea). Known as the tongue suspension procedure (with the trade name Repose), it is intended to keep the tongue from falling back over the airway during sleep with a small screw inserted into the lower jaw bone and stitches below the tongue. Usually performed in conjunction with other procedures, this surgery is potentially reversible.

Nasal surgery to remove obstructions in the nose or to correct a deviated septum may also be done. These are likely to treat snoring successfully when there is significant blockage in the nose and nowhere else. Other surgeries for snoring include major ones such as that to advance the jaw.

There is also a machine you can use called snore endure.

Nasal strips, anti-snore spray, (spray on the back of the throat), dental appliance, have your uvula removed, (That thing that dangles at the back of your mouth), The C-Pap machine, (It requires a sleep study procedure where you are hooked up to a brain wave reading machine), a humidifier can also help. Sleep on your side etc. It also could be an allergy to an animal or dust, etc. (How old is your pillow? It could be dust mite allergy). When was the last time you dusted your room?

Good luck!

Avoid drinking alcohol, eating heavy meals at least 4 hours before going to sleep. Nasal passages can be kept clear using a humidifier, inhaling steam, nasal strips and nasal sprays. A continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP) machine may also help, but it is available only on prescription.More remedies
