In this episode of the Neuro Flex podcast, host Toby Passman talks with Dr. Dave Rabin, a neuroscientist, psychiatrist, and inventor, about Apollo Neuroscience's wearable technology designed to combat chronic stress and improve sleep, focus, and calmness through touch therapy. Dr. Rabin shares the origin story of Apollo, developed initially to support veterans with PTSD by leveraging touch therapy's calming effects on the nervous system. They delve into the science behind the device, discussing its impact on heart rate variability (HRV) and sleep quality, evidenced by clinical trials and user feedback. The conversation also explores Apollo's role in aiding psychedelic therapy, specifically MDMA-assisted psychotherapy, and the potential of wearable technology and AI in enhancing mental health and wellness.
