The innovative adaptive and stress fr ee alarm clock, "The Gentle Alarm" (patent pending) for iPhone and iPod touch wa s developed by a clinical neurologist. The Gentle Alarm adapts itself to the use rs' particular needs within a few nights. 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" for iPhone and iPod touch. 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, convention al alarm clocks and the associated release of stress hormones from the adrenal g land can be avoided by using this novel and intelligent self adapting, personal sleep cycle alarm clock. Stuerenburg sees health benefits of this intelligent innovation in weight loss, stress reduction, increase of skeletal muscle mass, pain reduction, enhanced mal e virility and erectile function, improvement of cognitive performance, improvem ent of fatigue, chronic fatigue and better general health and 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 phase into the light sleep phase b y 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.
