The Story Behind SnoreStop

Snorestop snoring products founders

In 1995, our founder Christian De Rivel set out to solve his own snoring and in doing so, helped countless couples reclaim restful nights. Teaming up with naturopathic doctor Dr. Ken Rifkin, he created SnoreStop—a natural, discreet alternative to bulky strips and mouthguards that put connection and comfort first.

Now, nearly 30 years later, that legacy continues under new leadership. As Christian’s daughter and the next-generation CEO, I’m proud to guide SnoreStop into the future. Still family owned, now women led, and more committed than ever to innovation, sustainability, and real sleep wellness.

We’re here to help couples sleep better together—naturally and confidently. Because better sleep doesn’t just quiet snores, it brings you closer.

With gratitude,
Melody De Rivel
Co-CEO, SnoreStop

SnoreStop is the only natural, medically proven, device-free solution that treats snoring based on where it starts— primarily in the mouth or in the back of the throat. Backed by medical insight and built for real relationships, our approach is personalized, discreet, and designed to bring couples closer through better sleep. We’re the only brand that treats snoring based on where it starts—because no two snorers are the same.

We know snoring doesn’t just disrupt sleep—it can create distance. Our mission is to bring couples closer by offering natural solutions that silence snores, restore connection, and make bedtime something to look forward to again. And we’re just getting started—more sleep innovations are on the way.
