ALEX - It is your wearable posture coach and posture tracker. It's the first wearable to accurately measure the angle of your neck and the position of your head, so you can put an end to neck pain. More than 80% of office workers suffer from Forward Head Posture (FHP) or Text Neck.(Just look around.) These conditions are caused by looking down at laptops, smartphones and other digital devices for extended periods. Even if you've never heard of FHP or Text Neck, you probably know their effects: Soreness and stiffness in your neck and spine.
In the short term, FHP and Text Neck can make it that little bit harder to get out of bed in the morning or to sit in your chair at work. In the long term they can lead to chronic pain and more serious spinal issues. Medical studies have even shown that physiological changes invoked by bad posture can include increased levels of cortisol and decreased testosterone, leading to stress and depression.
Many products promise relief from the pain cause by an epidemic of poor posture. We've tested out quite a few wearables and found that they're often overly complicated, inaccurate or inconvenient. And while pills and massage therapies exist to treat the pain, none of these options effectively treat the underlying problem: Poor posture. Our team of biomechanical engineers, developers and technology experts created ALEX to be different. ALEX doesn’t treat your pain, but addresses the causes underlying your pain by gently coaching you towards better posture, every day.
