The "Snore-Op" technique is based on a technology introduced to New Zealand by the Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) Specialist, Mr Jim Bartley. Mr Bartley predicted that the process of Radio-frequency Tissue Volume Reduction (RFTVR) would become the preferred treatment for snoring disturbance. Over the years, the technique has been modified considerably resulting in less pain and inflammation, more effective treatments, and less client discomfort during the procedure.
The technique has been adopted and practiced by SnoreOp practitioners Dr Andrew Murley, and former co founder who recently retired Dr Neil Hutchinson.
