Abstract
A wristband having a start button which produces a tapping motion to induce sleep. Preferably the wristband has a timer and may tap an odd number of times to interrupt the natural pulse and promote sleep. The wristband may be provided in a variety of sizes.

adult, child + baby sizes (Pink & Blue) When the 20 mm timer is depressed the band pulses (taps) odd times only ie:- 7 pulses, 3 pulses, 5 pulses, 3, 7, etc These taps are absorbed into the wrists' natural pulse, which interrupts the normal even' messages sent to the brain. This tricks' the sleep sensors. . . and soon you are off to sleep!! A safe drug free aid to restful sleep.
