 The National Sleep Foundation has developed two new websites, each dedicated to a specific sleep disorder. The first website is for those struggling with shift work disorder, and the second for those with insomnia. Shift work sleep disorder is a disorder of a person's circadian rhythm, the biological clock our bodies use to keep us awake during the day and allow us to sleep at night. When a person regularly works outside of the traditional 9-5 workday schedule, the night shift for example, problems with sleep can occur. For more information about shift work disorder for yourself or someone you would like to help, visit http://sleepfoundation.org/shift-work. Insomnia is a problem that effects all of us at one time or another. However, if you have had trouble falling asleep and/or staying asleep 3 nights or more over a period of 3 months, you may suffer from chronic insomnia. Visit the National Sleep Foundation at http://sleepfoundation.org/insomnia/ for help.

Travel CPAP

Z1 CPAP by HDM
We offer the option to rent the Z1™ CPAP with or without the battery pack!
You may rent just to try it out or to take with you on a trip--an alternative to purchasing your own!
If you rent first and decide to purchase later, your rental fee will go towards the cost of your purchase.
The Z1 travel CPAP made by Human Design Medical is the simplest, smallest and quietest travel CPAP ever!
The Z1™ only makes 26 dBA of sound during operation. It only weighs 10 oz. and can be plugged into an outlet or integrated with the rechargeable battery Power Shell™. A great option for camping/backpacking, the Power Shell™ has also been approved by the FAA for in-flight use!
