Sleep Issues (Adults)
Sleep requires relaxation, and sometimes adults are too wound up to get calm enough to get their Zzzs. The body's fight or flight response can keep the mind and body on high alert, making it difficult to relax. Using BLAST® just before going to bed can help you relax into dreamland.
How blast® works for sLEEP ISSUES (ADULTS)
BLAST® INTERVENES
TouchPoint Solution’s wearable devices are embedded with patented BLAST® (bi-lateral alternating stimulation tactile) technology. BLAST® is scientifically proven to alter the body’s “fight or flight” response caused by stress. The wearables emit alternating vibrations that disengage your standard stress response (sympathetic nervous system), and shift you into the calm, logical side of your brain (parasympathetic nervous system).

CHANGE OCCURS
When using BLAST® consistently before/during bedtime, overtime you may not need them in certain situations as they become less stressful because of BLAST®. One of the ways BLAST® works is by creating new neural pathways that help modify the memories that trigger our stress response. With continued use of BLAST®, these new neural pathways can build overtime, progressively reducing the release of stress related hormones contribute to poor sleep.

MEASURABLE IMPACT
A Scientific Advisory Board study found that when BLAST® is used before going to bed, they both helped the subject fall asleep within 15 minutes and wake up 80% less in the middle of the night.
BLAST® helps your body manage the stress, one of the main reasons for sleep disruption, helping your body to relax for more restful sleep. View study.

I can actually sleep through the whole night
"Touch points are truly great!! I've had an amazing response to them. If I use them for 20-30 minutes before bed I can actually sleep thru the whole night! I also use them when I have to go out in public on my own and they calm my anxiety enough that I'm able to get the shopping done that I need. I've worked with the customer service several times just to get all my things properly together and they are great at responding and are polite and helpful every time."
