Neurosonic Finland Ltd.
Neurosonic represents a new technological approach to both physical and mental wellbeing. Neurosonic technology has been proven to help people with sleep issues, poor recovery and other undefined and disturbing stress-related symptoms.
During sleep deprivation, you can’t focus on a large amount of information or sustain your attention for long periods. This all affects learning, creativity and the ability to solve problems. Also, lack of REM-sleep affects your short term memory negatively. The cause of short term memory problems is neurotransmitter norepinephrine.
Neurosonic technology has been proven to help people with sleep issues, poor recovery and other undefined and disturbing stress-related symptoms. The effect of low-frequency vibration has been proven in multiple studies and also in our own customer experiences.
Neurosonic technology is based on sensory tissue stimulation with very low-frequency vibration. The built-in elements transmit the vibration, focusing the stimulation on the whole body simultaneously or certain body parts individually. As the vibration advances all the way into the deepest tissues, this natural mechanism affects the body and the mind via the autonomic nervous system especially effecting and calming the vagus-nerve, offering a relaxing, restorative and refreshing moment. The benefits of our technology is easy to prove with measurements of HRV (heart rate variation).
Neurosonic’s solution - a soothing effect on both physical and mental well-being
Neurosonic technology is easy to use and is controlled wirelessly with a mobile application that allows you to select your preferred program area for relaxation, activation or recovery. The programs have different uses and a comprehensive library provides something for everyone.
