The Apollo Stress-Relief Wearable

I’ve been wearing a vibrating device on my wrist and ankle for the past two weeks. It was developed by neuroscientists and is designed to help you take control of how you feel by signaling safety to your brain.

The makers of the new Apollo wellness wearable say it works with your sense of touch, delivering vibrations on your skin in rhythms recognized by the body “as soothing gentle touch, just like a friend giving you a hug on a bad day.”

The device aims to improve your heart rate variability (HRV), a key marker of your stress resiliency, and has seven different modes so you can choose how you want to feel; calm anxiety, help you unwind and get to sleep, increase focus, recover after workouts, help you feel energized, and even nudge you into feeling more sociable around other people.

This video shows you my thoughts on using Apollo for a fortnight, combined with an in-depth interview on how the device works with Dr. David Rabin, MD, PhD - the board certified psychiatrist and neuroscientist who co-founded Apollo Neuroscience.
