CPAP Start Programme

$350.00

Starting CPAP can feel overwhelming. From understanding your machine and finding the right mask to getting comfortable with the pressure and making it through your first few nights — there’s a lot to figure out. That’s why we created the 4-Week CPAP Start Programme.

Designed by Sleep Physiologists and based on the clinical approach used across leading sleep services in Australasia, the programme gives you personalised guidance from your very first night. We’ll help you understand your equipment, build confidence with CPAP, troubleshoot common problems and make the adjustments that can help you get comfortable with therapy — so you don’t have to figure it out alone.

4 weeks of expert guidance & personalised support.

YOUR CPAP JOURNEY STARTS HERE

Your first step towards comfortable, confident CPAP therapy.

Starting CPAP can feel overwhelming. You’ve got a new machine, a new mask and a lot of information to take in — and knowing where to start isn’t always easy. You shouldn’t have to figure it out alone.

Whether you:

Have just received your first CPAP machine
Are unsure how to set up or use your equipment
Are nervous about your first night
Want to understand what your CPAP data actually means
Simply want expert guidance to make sure you’re starting on the right track

Over the next 4 weeks, we’ll guide you through the process step by step. You’ll learn how to use your equipment, build confidence with CPAP, troubleshoot common problems and understand how your therapy is working. Each appointment builds on the last, with personalised guidance to help you become comfortable and confident using CPAP.

Guided by qualified Sleep Physiologists and Sleep Scientists, our programme brings the same structured, patient-focused approach used in clinical sleep services directly to you.

Start your CPAP journey with the guidance and support you deserve.

Your programme includes:

2-Day Structured CPAP Education

Two structured education sessions designed to give you the knowledge and confidence to get started with CPAP. Learn about obstructive sleep apnoea, how CPAP works, how to use your machine and mask, cleaning and maintenance, mask fitting, comfort settings and what to expect during your first week.

3 × 1:1 Clinical Reviews

Three personalised consultations with a qualified Sleep Scientist to review your progress, answer your questions and guide you through each stage of your treatment.

CPAP Data Review

A detailed review of your CPAP therapy data to understand how your treatment is performing and ensure you’re getting the most from your therapy as you become established with CPAP.

Personalised Troubleshooting

Individualised support to address the common challenges that can make starting CPAP difficult — including mask leaks, discomfort, pressure intolerance, dry mouth and difficulties adjusting to therapy.

Therapy Optimisation

Bringing your education, progress and therapy data together to fine-tune your CPAP experience and help you establish comfortable, effective and sustainable treatment from the beginning.

Frequently asked questions

This programme is designed for people who have recently received a CPAP machine and are completely new to CPAP therapy. Whether you’re unsure where to start, nervous about your first night, or simply want professional guidance, we’ll walk you through the process step by step.

You’ll learn how to set up and use your CPAP machine, understand your mask and equipment, adjust your comfort settings, and build a routine that makes CPAP easier to use consistently.

That’s completely normal when starting CPAP. We’ll help you understand common issues such as mask leaks, pressure discomfort, dry mouth and difficulty keeping your mask on, with personalised troubleshooting to help you become comfortable with therapy.

Yes. Your CPAP data will be reviewed during your clinical consultations to see how you’re responding to therapy and identify any areas that may need attention. We’ll explain what your data means in simple terms and guide you through the next steps.

No. The programme complements your existing clinical care. It provides additional CPAP-focused support and optimisation, while medical diagnoses, prescriptions and broader treatment decisions remain with your doctor or sleep specialist.

Optimising your CPAP therapy can help ensure your sleep apnoea is being treated effectively, but tiredness can have many possible causes. If your CPAP therapy is optimised and you’re still experiencing significant daytime tiredness, it may suggest that sleep apnoea isn’t the only factor contributing to your symptoms. We can help identify when further assessment with your doctor or sleep specialist may be appropriate.
