The modern war-fighter faces increasing cognitive demands, exponentially more information, and a greater need for mental resilience than ever before. Sana, a device that uses audiovisual neuromodulation to produce a deep state of relaxation and optimize recovery, was chosen as the most promising technology to help address this growing need.
Sana is a wearable device that guides the user into a state of relaxation in just 10 minutes. In addition to the immediate relaxation effects, the device helps return the brain to optimum brainwave states over time. This has applications across pain, addiction, anxiety and sleep problems. Given the state of the opioid crisis and the market effects of this catastrophe, this discovery has huge implications.
Richard Hanbury, Founder and CEO of Sana, originally developed the earliest prototype after a jeep crash in Yemen in 1992 left him in severe, chronic pain and a 5-year life expectancy. The earliest prototype wiped out all of his nerve damage pain and saved his life.
