At-Home Sleep Apnea

Regain Control of Your Life with Our At-Home Sleep Apnea Solutions

Fit for Duty understands the challenges you experience and delivers life-changing solutions with our at-home sleep apnea treatments. Treating sleep patterns are a relatively underexplored field. Yet the impact it can have on your life when you no longer struggle with fatigue, a lack of concentration or excessive daytime sleepiness, is nothing short of miraculous.

Problems Our At-home Sleep Apnea Test Address

We are the only occupational health sleep service in New Zealand which provides testing and solutions to aid in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. When you worry about your sleep patterns and the effect it has on your life, our at-home sleep test is your first step to find relief.


  • Determining the root of your concern. General fatigue can be the result of a sleep disorder and years of living with the effect it has on your life without diagnosis or management. Research shows that fatigue is increasingly the cause of motor vehicle accidents and workplace incidents. Untreated obstructive sleep apnea also indicates the potential to cause depression and anxiety.


  • Managing your risk. Once you identify the cause and severity of your situation, it is easier to manage it successfully. We can discuss the solutions we have to help you to regain your quality of life.


  • Finding the solution which suits you the best. Treatment with our CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine delivers success within a few weeks. If our CPAP device doesn’t provide the desired results, we can direct you to the more advanced options within the niche field of apnea management.


Sleep apnea has no cure, but you are not stuck in a hopeless situation. By making lifestyle changes and with proper at-home treatment, you can manage your condition with absolute success.

What You Should Know About Apnea Treatment Without CPAP

Once you complete the sleep apnea test, you will fall into one of two categories. Either you show a low risk of sleep apnea, and we recommend regularly re-testing, or the results are positive, and we recommend that you complete a CPAP trial.


  • In some instances, an intolerance to the CPAP machine might present itself. It means home treatment with a CPAP machine will not deliver the desired results for you, and we recommend the continuation of consultations with a sleep physician.


  • Alternative options include the use of a mandibular advancement device or a mouthguard. It might bring the desired results without opting for any invasive surgery.


  • The last resort when no other therapy delivers the necessary results is ENT surgery to bring relief to the effect sleep apnea has on your life.
