[My Personal Sleep Tip] Relieve daily fatigue with the IOLAB ITECT massage device and enjoy a good night's sleep~

My nephew gave me two of the same product as a birthday gift.

Actually, I didn't use it much and just kept it aside. I'm secretly lazy and weak at charging, haha.

 

But I wonder if I'm showing off that I'm turning 50 this year, my eyes have been acting up since the beginning of the month.

It's okay that I can't see small letters well, but my eyes are very dry and tired, and even after sleeping, my eyes feel very gritty.

Even before going to bed, I feel tired, but strangely my eyes are wide open, and along with discomfort, I feel pain, making it hard to close my eyes;;;

 

Artificial tears are only temporary, so these days I started using the IOLab I-Techt massage device before bed.

It has a heating function, plays relaxing music, and the massage feature is also great, providing enough pressure without being too strong.

They say that warming the eyes is very effective~ The only downside is that the music volume is a bit loud, and I still can't find the control to adjust it;; hahaha

 

 

Charging station and power button~~

 

 

There is an adjustable strap, so you can easily adjust it to fit your head size~~ You can use it after charging.

 

Haha, do I look like a cyborg? Lying down like that~~ I'm doing acupressure!!

 

Since it can be used in these three modes, I almost always use the heat and pressure therapy.

I thought it was just a gift product, but upon checking, it turns out it was a good product that passed various tests and certifications, right? Haha

 

It doesn't treat eye diseases, but I definitely feel like my eyes are a little more comfortable...

All day at work, I keep staring at my computer and phone emitting a lot of electromagnetic waves, and then at home, I watch Netflix and YouTube until I go to bed, straining my eyes;;;

 

My mom used to tell me I shouldn't read books up close because my eyesight was getting worse, but these days, media exposure is so easy that I think I've been overworking my eyes~~

 

They say not looking at your phone before bed really helps with sleep~~~

 

It's the habit that people fail to maintain the most when trying to prevent insomnia!!!

 

Habit of looking at your phone or laptop before falling asleep

Many people have the habit of looking at their smartphones before falling asleep. In fact, I also often watch YouTube or Netflix until I fall asleep while lying down.

If you want to get a good night's sleep, it is advisable to change this habit.

Two hours before bedtime, the brain begins to secrete the sleep hormone melatonin, but the light emitted from smartphones can suppress melatonin secretion.

The more melatonin secretion is suppressed, the later the sleep time becomes.

It is recommended to develop a habit of refraining from using electronic devices before going to bed.

What is melatonin: It is an important sleep-inducing hormone secreted by the brain. The most influential factor is sunlight; exposure to sunlight after waking stops its secretion. It is a hormone naturally produced in the body through several stages of synthesis, and for melatonin to be produced well, it is essential to consume certain nutrients such as the essential amino acid tryptophan and calcium, along with exposure to sunlight.

Tryptophan -> Hydroxytryptophan -> Serotonin -> Melatonin

 

Anyway, reducing screen time on your phone, warming your eyes before bed, and giving yourself a light massage are good for your eyes~~ It also greatly helps you get a good night's sleep.

 

If you don't have a massager, you can place a warm towel on your eyes for a while to warm them up, and then gently massage around your eyes before going to sleep~ ^^

Good sleep seems to make a good day~ Sleep well, everyone!!
