Following the recent announcement, the company offers the REM Patch, a drug-free, non-invasive sleep-aid product that promotes a balanced sleep cycle.

The FDA-registered REM Patch is the latest in a series of wellness patches developed by The Super Patch Company. Using an innovative vibrotactile technology, ridges etched in the patch trigger nerves in the skin upon contact, sending calming signals to the brain which help to induce a deep, restful sleep state.

Ongoing studies from the Sleep Foundation have found that over 30% of working adults are sleeping six hours or less per night. Chronic sleep deficiency has been linked to many health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, and depression, in addition to the many negative impacts that it has on cognitive functions and quality of life.

The Super Patch Company developed the REM Patch to treat this epidemic of sleep deficiency without incurring the side effects and grogginess of drug-based sleep aids, while still offering a simple solution that would fit into people's busy schedules. After exhaustive research and testing, the team was able to engineer a vibrotactile pattern that helps soothe the brain into falling asleep faster and for longer, so that users can get the restorative rest they need.

Like all Super Patches, the REM Patch is skin-safe, paraben and latex-free, and hypoallergenic. Designed to be as easy, accessible, and unobtrusive as possible, the patch only needs to be applied on the back of one's shoulders 30 minutes before going to sleep, and remove in the morning to allow the vibrotactile pattern to stimulate the proper neurological pathways.

Described as a neural QR code, the REM Patch functions on similar principles as acupuncture or reflexology, but on a more subtle level, to hack the nervous system's natural rhythms and patterns to achieve the desired effect.

A spokesperson for the company shared on the philosophy behind their technology, saying that "we believe the power of the human body and mind can do amazing things, and that tapping into that power - not just tricking it with a temporary disguise - is possible."
