Sleep tech has come a long way, and today, I'm sharing three innovative gadgets that can help you get the restful sleep you deserve. From high-tech neurostimulation to wearable temperature control and baby monitoring, these products are designed to optimize sleep for both adults and little ones. Let’s dive in!
1. Modius Sleep by Neurovalens – Prescription-Only Neurostimulation for Insomnia
If you suffer from chronic insomnia, Modius Sleep by Neurovalens might be the breakthrough you need. This FDA-cleared device is a safe, noninvasive, non-pharmaceutical neurostimulation system that helps regulate your sleep cycle. You wear it for 30 minutes before bedtime, and it works to improve sleep latency (falling asleep), sleep duration, and overall sleep quality. By restoring normal circadian rhythms, Modius Sleep helps you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer—without the need for medication. Since it’s available by prescription only, talk to your doctor to see if it’s the right fit for you.
