What does Apollo Neuro do?

  • Updated

In the video below, Dr. Dave Rabin MD, PhD, discusses how to strengthen and calm your nervous system using the Apollo™ device. Apollo was designed to restore balance to your nervous system. It uses silent, soothing vibrations that train the nervous system to recover more quickly. These waves of vibration send safety signals to the brain, activating your parasympathetic nervous system, and give your body and mind a chance to recover. It helps restore your balance, making it easier to relax, focus, and get the restorative sleep you need.

While the tech behind Apollo is pioneering, the principle is as old as time—stressful things will always come our way, and we can’t control that, but we can control our reaction, how we adapt to it and grow from it. And Apollo's here to help you do that.

Watch this playlist to learn more from Dr. Dave Rabin MD, PhD about Apollo Neuro, the fundamentals of stress, and how to get the most benefit from using Apollo.

What do Apollo Neuro programs feel like?

Developed by physicians and neuroscientists, Apollo Neuro vibration patterns are designed to facilitate natural states of calm, clarity, focus, and relaxation. Unlike typical electronic devices that vibrate like a cell phone or massager, Apollo Neuro Vibes™ feel natural to the body and are experienced as gentle waves of vibration that come and go.

How do Apollo Neuro vibration patterns work?

When we are physically or mentally tired or feeling stressed out, the sympathetic (fight-or-flight) branch of our nervous system is more active, leaving us feeling distracted, overwhelmed, and anxious. 

Apollo Neuro vibrations accelerate your mental and physical recovery from stress by signaling safety to your brain through your sense of touch. By rapidly inducing feelings of safety, Apollo Neuro facilitates your body’s return to equilibrium and restores the control of your fight-or-flight response by balancing activity in the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.

Is Apollo Neuro safe?

Yes. Apollo Neuro Vibes deliver gentle vibration. Studies of numerous forms of vibration demonstrate no significant negative reactions from routine use. Vibration at Apollo's decibel levels has not been found to pose the risk of harm.
