There is some evidence that acupressure may help sleep apnea. A study published in the "Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine" in 2005 found that acupressure improved the quality of sleep in people with sleep apnea. The study participants were given acupressure treatments twice a day for two weeks. They reported less snoring and more restful sleep. The researchers reported that acupressure helped improve their quality of sleep, but it did not cure the condition or completely eliminate snoring.
