Wellness’ next big thing is this wearable tech

Raise your hand if you’re feeling stressed. ✋It’s not just you — according to the American Psychological Association, we’re more stressed than ever.

The good news: When it comes to reducing your stress levels, simple techniques like mindfulness + exercise go a long way — especially when paired with the latest in wearable wellness technology. Enter: Apollo, a wearable device that uses touch therapy to strengthen your nervous system from the inside out, to help you relax, focus, and sleep better.

Here’s how it works: The device, which can be worn on the wrist, ankle, or clipped to clothing,, sends gentle vibrations to relax the body’s nervous system, which in turn creates a ripple flow of positive effects, including:

  • Deeper sleep
  • Lower stress levels
  • Increased focus and concentration
  • Improved physical recovery

Basically, when your nervous system is relaxed, it’s easier for your body to do everything else. Apollo outcomes are backed by multiple clinical trials, and, with consistent use, can retrain your nervous system + improve the body’s physiological ability to manage stress.
