The Science of Sleep and NuCalm
The main chemical messenger responsible for inhibiting neural activity goes by the acronym GABA. Working in tandem with serotonin and melatonin, GABA transitions the brain and body from an aroused state to a relaxed state.
The NuCalm Biosignal Processing Disc works by emitting electromagnetic frequencies that activate GABA receptors in the body, thereby slowing its internal systems and preparing them for deep relaxation and sleep.
Research indicates that NuCalm Rescue provides the equivalent of two hours of deep, restorative sleep in as little as 20 minutes. And restorative sleep is proven to be essential to consolidating brain and muscle memory.
How is NuCalm Rescue So restorative? By Restoring Balance to Your Systems
NuCalm Rescue dramatically improves sleep quality by restoring balance to your hormonal levels, autonomic nervous system, and circadian rhythms:
Maintaining the right hormonal balance improves sleep quality and general well-being. NuCalm Rescue restores hormone equilibrium by resetting the hypothalamus, the brain’s hormonal control center.
Restoring Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) balance is essential to your overall health, and sleep is your best opportunity to achieve it. NuCalm Rescue helps balance your ANS by enabling you to spend enough time in the parasympathetic, “rest-and repair” state.
And NuCalm Rescue minimizes the effects of jet lag or an irregular sleep schedule by resetting your biological clock, as well as restoring order to circadian rhythms thrown off by the blue light emitted by high-tech device screens.
By rapidly revitalizing you when sleep-deprived, NuCalm Rescue enables you to resist illness, recover faster and more fully, and summon the energy you need to meet your daily demands and Own the Day!
Questions about the science of sleep
What role does GABA play in sleep?
GABA is the main chemical messenger that inhibits neural activity. Working with serotonin and melatonin, it moves the brain and body from an aroused state to a relaxed state. NuCalm says its biosignal processing disc emits electromagnetic frequencies meant to activate GABA receptors and prepare the body for deep relaxation and sleep.
Can NuCalm Rescue help with jet lag?
NuCalm says Rescue minimizes the effects of jet lag or an irregular sleep schedule by resetting your biological clock. It also describes Rescue as restoring order to circadian rhythms thrown off by blue light from device screens, and helping balance hormones and the autonomic nervous system.
How restorative is a Rescue session?
NuCalm says research indicates Rescue provides the equivalent of two hours of deep, restorative sleep in as little as 20 minutes. It credits this to restoring hormone balance by resetting the hypothalamus, and to helping the autonomic nervous system spend enough time in the parasympathetic rest-and-repair state.
