I have had in the past week two seperate recommendations from practitioners to help me
with my condition.
1- Zeo machine, sold by Brookstone (I hope it's ok to mention the name of the store), is an aid
for people who have sleep problems.
By sleep problems, I mean the quality of your sleep.
The machine consists of three components. A band that you put around your forehead before you go to sleep. A small alarm clock size machine that's placed on your night table. Lastly you need a computer (any computer which you already probably have. (since you are reading this)
The way it works: The machine records all your brainwaves throughout the night. You than register your machine on line and can see exactly if you had deep quality sleep or not. For how long it lasted etc..
You might say, what's the difference, I already know that I don't sleep restoratively.
Yes, but do you know day to day the variations? Do you know how different medications or supplement or whatever else you do affects the quality of sleep?
By seeing direct results, you can change and fine tune what you do before you go to sleep, so that you can have optimal sleep.
I didn't buy this machine yet. It's not cheap ($200).
Before I buy it, i was wondering if anyone has experience with it?
Or, any feedback if you think this is a good idea.
2_ I was recommended to get a bouncer (small adult trampoline) and jump on it every day that I am able. Optimally for 20 minutes. It's supposed to be very beneficial to the lymphatic system and for circulation.
I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this. It was explained to me that it's not like doing exercise. It's very easy on the body. you don't have to jump high.
Thanks,
Nielk
