B-Pulse wireless wristbands provide gentle, rhythmic vibrations that alternate between the hands, using bilateral stimulation to promote calm and focus in children. These tappers are commonly used in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, an evidence-based treatment that helps individuals process distressing memories and reduce trauma symptoms. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation, like the gentle vibrations from B-Pulse, to support the brain’s natural healing process (Shapiro, F., 2001, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing: Basic Principles, Protocols, and Procedures).
In addition to clinical use, B-Pulse Tappers can also be used at home to support emotional regulation, focus, and calming for children. Research shows that sensory-based interventions can improve self-regulation, particularly for kids with ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) (Schaaf, R.C., Benevides, T.W., Kelly, D., & Mailloux, Z., 2014, Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders). Bilateral tactile stimulation has been found to significantly reduce stress, with cortisol levels decreasing by 23% in just 30 minutes (Amino, A.M., Davis, C.L., & King, J.R., 2017, The Impact of Bilateral Stimulation on Cortisol Levels).
B-Pulse Tappers offer adjustable settings, including slow, gentle vibrations that help regulate the nervous system by promoting parasympathetic activity — the body’s natural calming response. For an enhanced experience, the vibrations can sync with calming music, providing a multisensory approach to relaxation and focus.
The B-Pulse app makes it easy to customize the vibration patterns and sync them with calming music tracks designed to support relaxation and focus. Through the app, parents and therapists can adjust the speed, intensity, and duration of the vibrations, as well as choose from a library of music tracks specifically composed to complement the bilateral stimulation. This seamless integration helps children engage with the experience while benefiting from both auditory and tactile input for better regulation.
B-Pulse Tappers pair perfectly with the children's book Be Mindful of Monsters by Lauren Stockly. This engaging, therapeutic story helps kids understand and manage their big feelings with mindfulness techniques. Using the tappers while reading the book can provide children with a concrete, calming experience to reinforce the emotional regulation strategies introduced in the story.
