Health and Wellness
Practitioners use emWave to monitor Heart Rate Variability to assess which treatments and therapies are yielding the most desired results, and as a key component of various therapeutic modalities. For example:

  • People use it to de-stress and reduce the effects of hypertension, irregular heartbeats and fatigue.
  • emWave is used as an additional tool in cardiac rehab centers, burn centers for pain management, weight management clinics to help people relax and de-stress and in meditation groups.
  • Psychologists use it to help clients with anger management, anxiety, panic, stress and depression.
  • Health Care professionals are using it to empower patients to more actively engage in their own treatment, thereby reducing patient care cycle time.
  • Health Care Practitioners are using it for their own self-care, which helps them de-stress and be more caring and helpful with their patients.
  • Psychologists have clients use the emWave before sessions to de-stress and maximize session time because it's a method for having the client calm themselves down and de-stress before they get to the psychologist.
  • Patients can use the emWave at home or at work to teach themselves emotional management and to reinforce and sustain the work done with the therapist.
  • emWave is a clear "window on the emotions". It can be used to measure and show that a client is making progress.

Education and Children
Teachers use it to help children reduce test anxiety and improve their scores. For example:

  • Teachers use it to raise student's self esteem, the effects of peer pressure and teach emotional management skills.
  • Teachers and school administrators use it with children that have risky and unwanted behaviors to calm and focus them.
  • Teachers use it with angry and hostile children to help them find healthier emotional responses.
  • Teachers use it for themselves to create more emotional reserves and physical vitality so they are better able to deal with the many challenges they face, and enjoy their job and their students.
  • Used with children who have ADD and ADHD - to teach children they can control and focus their attention in a fun and successful way.

Sports

  • Golfers use it to combat the 'yips', the dreaded anxiety that hijacks their concentration and poise at key moments.
  • Martial artists use it for magnified focus and deep concentration when practicing and competing.
  • Athletes use emWave to practice getting into the "zone" during their down time before a game, or in high stakes situations.
  • Used for "Mental Training" of professional athletes.

Personal and Family Environment

  • People use it to enhance and measure the effects of various techniques they use to relax and refocus, like meditation and yoga.

Example:
To help a nun with a social welfare project in Brazil - the people have a lot of anger about their poverty situation, but are also apathetic about applying techniques for change. emWave shows them results of their efforts, and so it helps them feel more hopeful and able to see that their actions can bring results.

Families use it as a shared activity that results in more bonding, improved social skills and sensitivity, and more meaningful family time.

Example:
"My 11 year old son and I take turns on emWave PC sitting together, and then, when in a very relaxed state, and feeling very close, we have some of our best talks. A very fun way to open the channels of communication. It is priceless to me, as a single parent, as we might not otherwise have had these connections."

People use the games to demonstrate to themselves that they can succeed by calming down and getting balanced, to find a quiet place inside, and as a reality check about how easily and quickly one can access loving feelings.

To bring families back to what really matters--a heartfelt feeling and to reinforce core values
