What are TouchPoints?
TouchPoints are non-invasive neuroscientific wearable devices that use patent pending BLAST technology to relieve stress in as few as 30 seconds.
TouchPoints neuro stimulator for sleep consists of
- 2x TouchPoints basic (without wristband)
- 2x zippered sweatbands
- 1x dual-pronged charging cable
- Linen carrybag
Two TouchPoints devices can be worn on your wrists, held or clipped to clothing. TouchPoints uses BLAST technology transferring alternating vibrations to alter the body’s fight, flight or freeze (F3) response to stress and anxiety and to restore homeostatic nervous system functioning, allowing you to think clearly and experience calm. TouchPoints are wearable devices that provide fast relief from stress.
TouchPoints reduce stress by 70% in as few as 30 seconds.

Destress in 30 seconds? How?
When you`re stressed, the "fight or flight" part of your brain engages. TouchPoints shift you into the logical, rational part of your brain and allow you to think clearly and experience calm all within seconds. Having the ability to think rationally without an associated body sensation helps the brain create new neural pathways that are positive and this has a lasting effect on your brain.
Who can benefit from TouchPoints?
Anyone can benefit from the use of TouchPoints as they are an effective, accessible and affordable solution to overcoming stress, anxiety, focus issues, enhance performance and sleep. TouchPoints have also been reported to help cope with conditions such as Parkinson's, Autism or ADHD. Using TouchPoints for as little as 5 minutes a day results in improved focus and increased performance.
For whom are TouchPoints suitable?
- 17% between the ages of 18-34
- 53% between the ages of 35-54
- 70% females
- Average age of customers is 48

{tab Function}
How do TouchPoints work?
TouchPoints are embedded with the BLAST technology. BLAST stands for bilateral alternating stimulation - tactile. This is our patent-pending technology derived from the most successful form of treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
- Delivers stimulation to restore calm: Using gentle, haptic microvibrations called BLAST (bilateral alternating stimulation tactile), TouchPoints alter the brain`s decision about the stress switch and help restore calm.
- Reduces body sensation: The physical stress responses (stomach aches, headaches, etc.) are reduced or alleviated.
- Strengthens new neural connections: The brain`s ability to restore calm creates new neural pathways associated with internal thoughts or external situations that are happening at the time- reducing future stress in similar situations.
How to wear your TouchPoints
One TouchPoint must be on each side of the body in order for the technology to work. Skin to skin contact is not necessary to feel the vibrations.
Clips: Slide the included clips on the back of each TouchPoint and clip to clothing such as belt, pants, pockets, socks or bra straps.
Watchbands: Attach the included couplers to a TouchPoints watchband or any 22 mm spring pin watchbands and wear on wrists or ankles.
Other ways to wear them: Hold in your hands or slide in socks or pockets.
Using the TouchPoint basic
- Turn on one TouchPoint by pressing the on button until a green light appears.
- Choose your desired setting by pressing the button again. The blue light indicates the sleep setting, the yelllow light indicates the calm setting and the purple light indicates the anger setting.
- Once you choose your desired setting, turn the other TouchPoint on by pressing the on button until a green light appears.
- Position the second TouchPoint close to the first, with the lights facing each other. The second TouchPoint will automatically pick up the setting of the first TouchPoint.
- Take the TouchPoints challenge to get a better understanding of your baseline when it comes to stress.
- To turn your TouchPoints off, hold the two devices away from each other and press the button on each TouchPoint until they both turn off.
The science of stress
The brain`s salience network detects and integrates sensory information from outside and inside the body to decide whether to turn on stress (sympathetic nervous system) or turn on calm (parasympathetic nervous system). If a potential threat is perceived via sight, sound or even an internal negative thought, the brain signals the fight, flight, or freeze (F3) response and releases inflammatory stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Important functions such as executive control, rational thinking and empathy shut down in this mode and people can`t be at their best.
The result- sleepless nights, irritability, poor decision making, poor performance, cravings and a lack of focus. Most of us have overactive F3 responses - turning on the stress switch hundreds of times a day. F3 activation can lead to several physical and emotional problems and contributes to long-term side effects. Access to stress reduction in real-time, anytime, while you go about your day can significantly improve your life and can have implications on a global scale.

What comes in a set of TouchPoints?
Single person TouchPoints kits include the following:
- One set of TouchPoints (2 individual devices to be worn on each side of the body)
- Clips to attach TouchPoints to pockets, sock or shoes
- Couplers to attach watchbands and charging cables for original: TouchPoints app (both iOS and android versions available)
What`s the difference between TouchPoints originals and basic?
Original
- Original quickstart guide
- BLAST technology
- Rechargeable batteries
- App controlled
- 6 Pre-settings (calm, focus, sleep, anger, performance, craving) settings
- Ability to customize settings
Basic
- Basic quickstart guide
- BLAST technology
- Rechargeable batteries
- Not app controlled
- 3 settings (slow - sleep, medium - calm, fast - anger)
(Please note - sizes of the TouchPoints refer to wristband sizes only - both the original and basic devices are similar in size and offer similar levels of intensity of vibrations within the pre-settings. The app controlled originals can have the intensity, overlap and frequency increased or decreased to the individuals personal preference).
{tab FAQ}
The most frequent questions
How long is the battery life?
For TouchPoints original, the battery life is around 2 hours if used continuously and if used sporadically, the battery will last 1-2 days. The battery life for TouchPoints basic is approximately 7-8 hours. It takes 2-3 hours for batteries to recharge. Batteries are made of rechargeable lithium and the average battery life is 2-3 years.
Are TouchPoints waterproof?
TouchPoints original are not waterproof. While they will withstand minor contact with water (ex. perspiration), they should not be otherwise exposed. TouchPoints basic are water-resistant.
Are TouchPoints FDA or government approved?
TouchPoints are a general wellness device and do not require FDA approval as they are a 100 % non-invasive lifestyle device.
How do TouchPoints help reduce my stress?
TouchPoints were designed to interfere with the body's stress response by keeping it from entering the flight, fight or freeze mode. Many of our users report they experience less pain, are more calm, are able to sleep better and have a improved performance. TouchPoints can be used for a short duration to spot treat stress or they may be left on for longer periods of time to prevent it as well as 15 minutes in the morning and night to help improve sleep.
What if TouchPoints don't work on me?
There are no known conditions that would render TouchPoints ineffective. TouchPoints should work on everyone because of how the brain integrates sensory input. If it feels like your TouchPoints aren’t producing calm it could be because they are on too slow of a speed setting for a particular person or the overlap period may be too long. Try a faster setting with no overlap if this is a possibility.
If someone is panicking or thinking about an extremely stressful event, it may take longer than 30 seconds for the individual to feel the difference. In this case, leave your TouchPoints on and then reassess every minute. In a few minutes, there should be a noticeable difference. If an individual has a severe medical or mental health condition or is under the influence of drugs or alcohol, this may interfere with the results. If an individual has a dissociative disorder, autism or agenesis of the corpus callosum, he or she may not be able to notice the positive changes even if they are occurring.
In this description it says "without wristband", but in the package insert it says "with wristband". I am confused.
We apologize for this confusion. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has only created one package insert for all versions and unfortunately has not provided clarity. This model is without wristbands.
