If you're wondering which TouchPoint kit is right for you, it's helpful to know that all three options—TouchPoint Essentials, TouchPoints with Wristbands, and TouchPoints for Sleep—utilize the same innovative BLAST® technology to alter the body's stress response. Each kit is designed to provide a calming experience, enhance focus, improve performance, support better sleep, minimize anger, and reduce cravings. They all feature the same three settings: blue for sleep/meditation, yellow for calm/focus, and purple for anger/agitation. Additionally, each kit comes with rechargeable batteries that offer a 3-4 hour battery life and are splash resistant.
The main difference lies in the included accessory, the devices' shutoff method, and payment options.
Manual vs. Automatic Shutoff:
Manual shutoff:
Included with: TouchPoint Essentials and TouchPoints with Wristbands
TouchPoint Essentials and TouchPoints with Wristbands will run until manually powered off using the button on top of the devices, or until they run out of battery. TouchPoints are intended to be used as needed throughout the day typically, in 5-30 minute periods. These models are recommended for those who prefer more control over their usage or those who need the device for longer periods due to specific circumstances. For therapists, consider the need for uninterrupted use, which may be necessary for certain therapeutic techniques.
Models with manual shutoff can still be used for help falling asleep and staying asleep. Simply use the sleep setting while you're getting ready for bedtime and turn them off right before you go to sleep. If you fall asleep with them on, that's okay! There's no harm in using TouchPoints all night however you will need to recharge your TouchPoints in the morning.
Automatic shutoff:
Included with: TouchPoints for Sleep
TouchPoints for Sleep will automatically shut off after 30 minutes, or sooner if manually powered down using the buttons on top or if battery is low. TouchPoints are intended to be used as needed throughout the day typically, in 5-30 minute periods. This model is recommended for those who prefer to fall asleep with TouchPoints on, as the automatic shutoff feature will help preserve the battery. The automatic shutoff may also be beneficial for individuals and businesses who use TouchPoints several times per day for prolonged battery to help ensure that the TouchPoints are available when needed throughout the day.
