The body often reacts to ordinary stress the same way it reacts to threat.
Stress can affect focus, sleep, mood, performance, patience, and the ability to cope. Over time, chronic stress can reduce quality of life and contribute to broader health strain.
One reason it feels so powerful is that the body often responds to everyday stress using the same fight-or-flight mechanisms it uses for serious danger. That can trigger stress hormones and leave people feeling anxious, overstimulated, or out of control.
TouchPoint Solution products are designed to help interrupt that response through bi-lateral alternating stimulating touch.
Clinical findings have shown meaningful reductions in stress in as little as 30 seconds.
In one study, users experienced a 74% reduction in stress and a 68% reduction in stress-related body sensations within 30 seconds of use. Additional findings suggest that TouchPoint Solution technology can provide meaningful physiological and psychological relief quickly and consistently.
A triple-blind placebo-controlled trial with athletes also showed stabilization of cortisol during stressful events, supporting the role of BLAST technology in helping the body respond differently under pressure.
Read the Research
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).
Excess levels of cortisol may be released as your body’s response to stress that may result in agitation and irritability. A triple blind placebo-controlled trial with athletes showed TouchPoints™ stabilized cortisol levels during stressful events and reduced the level of stress. (Leal-Junior, E. C., Casalechi, H. L., Machado, C. dos, Serin, A., Hageman, N. S., & Johnson, D. S., 2019) View our full Stress Study.
When using BLAST® consistently when stressed, overtime you may not need them in certain situations as they become less stressful because of your 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 that can result in the inability to stay calm.
