Why be skeptical of the site?
The Didgeridoo allows one to exercise the muscles in the back of the throat and this may cause them to tighten and lessen the symptoms of sleep apnea and decrease obstructive snores. It is perfectly legitimate practice.

Is this a joke? This is what I signed up here for? What next a witchdoctor? Now I am skeptical of this whole site....

Wow. What a great rhymical sound. I took the research article done by the Brits to my sleep doc. She was excited...had just read an australian study that didgeridoo players had a very low incident of sleep apnea. I go to a chiropractor that uses a didge for sound therapy. had a session along with bells this last week. Was fantastic! I felt so aligned and centered. He worked with several men who had sleep apnea...teaching them to play...but no follow up or practice on their part. He said to go to 10,000 villages and I could get one for under $100. He would teach me. I think I will do it...but the circular breathing....sounds difficult. Anyway, I am willing...if playing only kept the apnea from worsening with age, it'd be worth it...and imagine what my neighbors will think when I begin practicing out over the mountain valley where we live. I can see my dog howling now along with me! Stay tuned. I plan to buy one and commence this effort in a couple of weeks.
