Overview
Are you ready to introduce peace into your daily life? TouchPoints™ basic are game-changing, non-invasive wearable devices that use neuroscientific technology to help you relieve stress, improve sleep, and increase focus in as few as 30 seconds. After becoming a viral phenomenon and helping people around the globe experience calm with TouchPoints™ original, we decided to create a simpler model that features the same stress-relieving technology at a more affordable cost.

Introducing TouchPoints™ basic

Our vision is to create a more healthy, peaceful, and productive world through a fundamental shift in the way people understand and handle their stress response.

TouchPoints™ basic are non-invasive neuroscientific lifestyle wearables that use patent pending technology to relieve stress, improve sleep, and increase focus.

Thousands of TouchPoints™ users report over 70% reduction in stress in just 30 seconds.

Simply use them for 15 minutes every morning to get your day started right and throughout the day as needed to keep you in a peaceful state of mind.

Elevating Humanity through Business

The TouchPoint Solution™ was founded on a belief in conscious capitalism which is integrated in every area of the company from our Touch of Hope Scholarship program to working with local vendors and individuals with disabilities. In honor of #GivingTuesday, we are highlighting our Scholarship program among our other initiatives that give back to the community.

  • Touch of Hope Scholarship. Every month, we donate dozens of TouchPoints™ to individuals in need via our Touch Of Hope Scholarship Fund. Individuals can apply by completing a simple form. To date we have given away hundreds of TouchPoints™ to deserving families. We recently dedicated our scholarship program to MacKenzie Briant, a young girl very near and dear to all of our hearts here at The TouchPoint Solution™. Watch her inspiring story below...
 

How do TouchPoints™ work?

Let's break this down into three steps:

  1. Reduce Body Sensations: When you think of something stressful, you get an associated body sensation - think stomach butterflies or tightness in the chest. Touchpoints™ users report over 70% reduction in body sensations within 30 seconds by altering the body’s stress mechanism.

  2. Shift Fight or Flight Response: When you're stressed, the fight or flight part of your brain (sympathetic nervous system) engages. TouchPoints™ shifts you into the logical, rational part of your brain (parasympathetic nervous system). Now when you think about something stressful, it doesn't seem as stressful anymore.

  3. Create New Neural Pathways: When you think of something stressful without a body sensation and while in the rational part of your brain, you create a new neural pathway that is neutral to positive. This has a lasting effect in your brain reducing stress over time and is why TouchPoints™ were derived from one of the only successful treatments for PTSD.

Our Story

On a hot Arizona morning in late 2015, Vicki Mayo confided in her close friend about a serious parenting challenge. Vicki’s young daughter had been experiencing night terrors, and Vicki, who had tried everything, was at her breaking point – she didn’t know what else she could do to help her six-year-old, whose nighttime screams were stressful not only to the child, but to the entire family.

Luckily, her close friend was Dr. Amy Serin, a top neuropsychologist specializing in research and clinical treatment of anxiety that hampers  relaxation, sleep, and ability to cope with sensory stimuli. Dr. Serin had used BLAST technology with her patients, her children and herself and suggested Vicki try the non-invasive, gentle set of alternating vibrations designed to alter the body’s F3 response to stress and anxiety and to restore homeostatic nervous system functioning.

Vicki tried the technology with her daughter that night, and was floored by the results. The technology  worked, and her daughter slept peacefully for the first time in months.

Vicki, a serial entrepreneur and child advocate, called Dr. Serin, who had also been thinking about how to get this technology into more people’s hands to improve their lives. Together, they founded The Touchpoint Solution™  and launched a successful crowdfunding campaign in December 2016 to raise funds to create a consumer-friendly product bringing BLAST technology to market.

FAQs

How does TouchPoints™ basic help reduce my stress?

TouchPoints™ use BLAST technology that gently interferes with the body's stress response and produces a more calm, focused state. Thousands of users report they feel more calm, can focus, are able to sleep better, and perform better with use. TouchPoints™ can be used for a short duration to spot-treat stress, or they may be left on for longer periods of time to prevent it, as well as 15 minutes in the morning and at night to help improve sleep.

Is there a refund policy?

Yes! We want you to be 100% satisfied with your TouchPoints™. If for some reason you want to return them, we offer a 30 risk free trial from the date of arrival, provided TouchPoints™ are returned in their original condition. 

Who Should Use TouchPoints™?

Anyone who would like to feel calm or help calm down their friends, family members, or co-workers.  Moms, executives, performers, athletes, kids, teachers, occupational therapists, psychologists, medical doctors, and first responders are some of the early adopters who now use TouchPoints™ on a regular basis in a variety of situations. Parents especially find TouchPoints™ effective for managing their children's ADHD and anxiety.

What's the Difference Between TouchPoints™ basic and TouchPoints™ original?

Are TouchPoints™ and Buzzies the same thing? 

Yes. When we originally launched in December 2016 TouchPoints™ were called Buzzies. We listened to customers' concerns that the name Buzzies implied loud devices that might shock the body or were only for children. To alleviate confusion, we changed the name of our gentle, non-invasive stress-relieving devices to TouchPoints™.

Is there research to back up TouchPoints™?

The TouchPoint Solution™ recently analyzed statistics from thousands of TouchPoints™ users who voluntarily entered metrics into the product’s app. Learn more about the research here.

The Proof Is In The Picture.

This is data from an electroencephalogram of a brain of a 38-year-old male CEO. The left image shows excess beta activity, which translates into heightened anxiety, stress, and restlessness. The right image shows beta activity after just one minute of using TouchPoints™ with BLAST technology.

The immediate reduction in excess beta activity was consistent with the CEO’s report that he felt more focused and able to problem-solve after TouchPoints™ were activated for 30 seconds. 

Optimal beta activity is associated with focus, possible memory enhancement, and the ability to problem-solve without interference from anxiety.

Images are qEEG results using a Cognionics Quick-20 Dry Headset, Neuroguide version 2.8.7, and LFT Tools Software for analysis. They show a significant reduction in excess beta activity 30 seconds after BLAST application in an eyes-open resting state condition was administered. (z = 2.5, z = 2.0)
