Float in Serenity

Shiftwave Chair

The Shiftwave Chair is a zero-gravity recliner that uses pulsed pressure waves and real-time biofeedback to help regulate the nervous system and promote deep relaxation, mental clarity, and physical recovery. It's a technology developed with the goal of providing a fast and effortless way to manage stress and optimize well-being.

The Science Behind the Experience

The Shiftwave Chair's effectiveness is rooted in the concept of nervous system regulation. At its core, it works by influencing your autonomic nervous system (ANS), the part of your nervous system that controls involuntary bodily functions like heart rate, breathing, and digestion. The ANS has two main branches:

  • Sympathetic Nervous System: Your "fight-or-flight" response, which increases your heart rate and keeps you on high alert.

  • Parasympathetic Nervous System: Your "rest-and-digest" system, which calms you down and promotes healing.

What It's Like to Experience the Shiftwave Chair

A session in the Shiftwave chair is a full-body, immersive experience. You recline in a zero-gravity position, which reduces stress on your spine and improves circulation. The chair then delivers precise, rhythmic vibrations or "pulsed pressure waves" throughout your body. These aren't just random vibrations; they are intelligently patterned to guide your nervous system into a specific state. Many users describe the feeling as a soothing, wave-like sensation that helps quiet the mind and release physical tension. The experience is often compared to an effortless form of meditation. With eye coverings and headphones, you can be completely immersed in a guided "journey" designed for specific outcomes like deep relaxation, better sleep, or enhanced focus.

Stuck in Go

In our modern, high-stress world, many people get "stuck" in a sympathetic-dominant state. The Shiftwave chair uses its Pulsed Pressure Wave technology to stimulate the nervous system and guide it back into a parasympathetic-dominant state. It's a form of nervous system training, using rhythm and vibration to help your body remember how to relax and recover. The chair also uses BioDrive® technology, which is a patent-pending system that monitors your heart rate and other physiological markers to adapt the pressure waves in real-time, creating a session that is uniquely personalized to your body's needs. This process not only provides immediate stress relief but, with consistent use, can also help build long-term resilience and improve the body's natural healing capabilities.
