As adults, most of us said goodbye to naps around age five. After all, who has an hour to spare every day? This way of thinking is set to change.

The scientific benefits of a power nap (between 15-45 minutes) are undeniable. Capable of improving memory, boosting productivity and reducing fatigue for the day, napping offers a range of performance-improving effects for the average adult. Some modern offices have chosen to embrace the productivity increase provided by napping, with nap pods and silent capsules gradually making their way into everyday spaces. However, the future of office wellness is set to change forever with the introduction of LoOok’s N.A.P., also known as the Neuron Activation Pod – available in Australia via TCW.

It’s N.A.P. time in the office – and we’re dreaming of science fiction

Launched after 5 years of meticulous research into oft-neglected fields of study, the Neuron Activation Pod seems like something straight off the pages of a science-fiction novel. Unlike anything we’ve seen before, N.A.P. uses low frequency vibrations to stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities. This neurosonic treatment is used to enhance the quality of sleep, ease stress, alleviate muscle tensions and even reduce swelling. The technology mechanically guides the user into a peaceful, meditative state by directly affecting the automatic nervous system, making relaxation effortless.

N.A.P provides a space where individuals can switch off and recharge before returning to the demands of daily life. The increased health benefits can drastically improve employee performance by speeding recovery times and reducing daily fatigue. N.A.P’s quirky and functional design was created by Ivar Gestraniuis & Kevin Lahtinen to integrate within the modern workplace.
