The Sleep Remedies Association is independent of any supplier or group, that acts as a forum for organisations involved in the business of selling or servicing equipment and products for Obstructive Sleep Apnea and other sleep disorder remedies.

The SRA operates at minimum costs and effort by the committee and the members by using the Internet both for communication and discussion. This site will be regularly updated as input is received from members.

Membership is open to anyone whose business is involved in any way with the supply of any product or service that can be described as a remedy for sleep disorders. The committee in their discretion may decide to accept or decline any application for membership.

The SRA will meet at conferences and trade shows that are supported by members, at least once a year in Australia. The SRA will also arrange local meetings for members.

Membership Fee

Aus$100 per calendar year, until December 2007.

The fees will be used for website development, advertisements and press releases in trade magazines, mail outs to members and potential members, and organising conferences relating to sleep disorders.

The Sleep Remedies Association was formed by Bernhard Kirschner of the Sleep Apnea Shop Pty Ltd, North Sydney, mobile phone 0416 23 7667, who believes that there is both a need and a demand for an organisation to represent those involved in supplying sleep remedies, particularly CPAP machines and masks, Mandibular Advancement Splints and allied products.
