Stress and sleep issues are core symptoms of fibromyalgia. Our stress response, also know as the fight-or-flight response, is stuck on overdrive. In turn, overactivation our body’s stress response causes poor sleep, fatigue, brain fog, depression, and more pain. Personally, I am struggling with an increase of all of these symptoms which is why I was excited to try Thync Relax Pro. It is a wearable device designed to help improve stress levels, mood, and sleep quality.

Getting Started With Thync Relax Pro
Setting up Thync is pretty easy. First, download the Thync Relax app. Next, open the app and pair with the Thync Pod. Then, follow the app instructions. The Thync app includes two neurostimulation programs, Deep Sleep and Deep Relax.
The Deep Relax program uses safe nerve stimulation to affect key brain regions involved in regulating stress. Based on scientific studies, customer success stories, and trials, Thync has established evidence that daily use of Thync leads to significant reductions in anxiety.
The Deep Sleep program uses nerve stimulation to affect key brain regions involved in sleep. In addition, Thync lowers stress and anxiety which can negatively impact sleep quality. The result is the ability to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer
Based on your answers while setting up the app, you will get a recommendation on how often to use each program. Based on my answers, I should use the Deep Sleep program at least 3 times a week for 15 minutes right before bed and the Deep Relax program for 10 minutes at least 5 times a week in the late afternoon or evening. Or whenever I feel anxious and stressed.
The Thync Relax app is used to increase or decrease the intensity of the stimulation until you feel a slight tingling sensation that is barely noticeable. During the session, helpful little tips will pop up on the screen.
For example, control breathing to complement the effect of the program. Try inhaling for 4 seconds and exhaling for 4 seconds.
You can also set up a session schedule and get reminders with the app. There is even a video on the app to show you exactly how to connect the pad to the pod and where to place the pod on the base of your neck.
How Thync Relax Pro Worked For Me
The opportunity to try out the Thync Relax Pro couldn’t have come at a better time. I have been struggling with my health for quite a while now, especially the last few months. My stress levels have been through the roof. I’ve been depressed. And I haven’t been sleeping well. I wake up exhausted no matter how long I’ve slept.
To be honest I have been going through a very dark period. My first thought when I wake has been WHY? Why did I have to wake up? Why even get out of bed? I am tired of being sick, tired of being in pain, tired of being tired, and tired of feeling depressed.
Over the last couple of weeks, I have been using the Deep Relax program every day, either in the late afternoon or early evening. And using the Deep Sleep program every night right before going to bed.
I am definitely sleeping better, waking more refreshed, and in a better frame of mind. My mood has also improved during the day. I feel calmer and less stressed.
