Sleep technology has come on leaps and bounds in the past few years. Now, there are smartmattressesthat track your sleep and adjust your position to help with snoring, and wearable and non-wearablesleep trackersthat analyse your sleep behaviours.
The advancements in sleep technology are all designed to help you sleep better and wake feeling more rested, but for those who experience insomnia, it can still be difficult to fall asleep. But Neurovalens, a medical device company, recently debuted its new sleep wearable that can help treat chronic insomnia.
TheNeurovalens Modius Sleepis a FDA-cleared and non-invasive device that sits on your head and delivers electrical pulses to help induce sleep. It looks and acts like a headband, and is designed to be worn for 30 minutes every day around 1-2 hours before you plan to go to bed.

The Modius Sleep uses electrical vestibular nerve stimulation (VeNS) to stimulate nerves to indirectly influence the body’s circadian rhythms and hypothalamus – the part of your brain that controls bodily functions, like temperature. Receiving electric pulses to your head might sound a little scary, but many users reported a rocking feeling when wearing the Modius Sleep.
In the form of a headband, the Modius Sleep transmits this neurostimulation through two electrode pads which sit behind the ear. The pads are self-adhesive and are pretty unobtrusive, so you can comfortably sit with the Modius Sleep on while watching TV or doing other tasks.
