You Get Too Cold

The cold can wake anyone up in the middle of the night, though the usual hot water bottle only lasts for a limited period of time. A great alternative is the Beurer HK44 'Not a Hot Water Bottle' Heat Pad, which includes three illuminated heat settings that allows you to set the device to a heat setting of your choice. This, a rapid heat up mode and an automatic switch-off makes this device superior to any classic hot water bottle.

You Can't Stop Snoring!

Snoring is more common during winter because of the dry air impacting your sinuses. The Rhnil Stop Snoring Spray is an all-natural herbal spray that can reduce allergies and counter sinus and nasal conditions, approved by the British Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Association for helping to reduce snoring during sleep. The spray will reduce nasal stuffiness by using leaves from the Eyebright plant, a human-friendly plant that relieves nasal congestion to make sleeping easier.

You Get Ear Aches and Pains

Ear aches and ear infections are more common during winter because of the cold and because they are often associated with colds and flus. The Pillow with a Hole is a comfortable pillow that comes with a hole in its centre that helps to relieve ear pain by allowing you to sleep with your ear completely untouched. Helping to relieve pain and irritation, this pillow allows ear pain sufferers to sleep on their side with ease.
