London, UK, November 19, 2010 -- "The Independent", one of the four largest Brit
ish quality newspapers, has named 9 conventional alarm clocks and one alarm cloc
k app, "The Gentle Alarm" to the list of the "The ten best alarm clocks". "The G
entle Alarm" was named the best alarm clock app worldwide.
The Independent mentioned: "Best for stress heads. The Gentle Alarm app for iPho
ne and iPod touch. This app monitors your natural sleep patterns and produces a
personalized waking program which stirs you from your slumber at the least stres
sful point of your sleep cycle".
To keep stress and cortisol levels healthy and under control, Clinical Neurologi
st Dr. Hans Joerg Stuerenburg, M.D., Ph.D. developed and patented an innovative
adaptive stress free alarm clock, "The Gentle Alarm".
Compared to conventional alarm clocks, the Gentle Alarm introduces an individual
ized, natural wake up procedure, which adapts itself to the users' particular ne
eds within a few nights. This patented alarm clock is leading to a gentle and st
ress free wake up.
Sudden, abrupt waking in the morning as with loud, conventional alarm clocks and
the associated release of stress hormones from the adrenal gland can be avoided
by using this novel and intelligent self adapting, personal sleep cycle alarm c
lock.
Stuerenburg sees health benefits of this intelligent innovation in weight loss,
stress reduction, increase of skeletal muscle mass and strength, pain and headac
he reduction, enhanced male virility and erectile function, improvement of cogni
tive performance, improvement of fatigue and muscle pain. And better general hea
lth and better physical fitness. The Gentle Alarm is easy to use. In order to be
woken up smoothly, sleepers will be guided from the deep sleep phase or dream p
hase into the light sleep phase by gentle sounds.
Unlike the hitherto existing sleep cycle alarm clocks The Gentle Alarm does not
require additional implement such as wristband motion sensors, sound sensors or
movement sensors. Users simply set their desired wake up time. After waking up,
they merely slide a finger across the screen to stop the alarm. Everything else
is taken care of by the patented and intelligent system.
The Gentle Alarm (patent pending) was developed for iPhone in collaboration with
Craft mobile and can be downloaded from the Apple iTunes AppStore for iPhone or
iPod touch (requires iPhone OS Version 3.0 or newer).
