Conversations Unplugged

with Dr. Dave Rabin

Join STEMREGEN Founder and Chief Science Officer, Christian Drapeau, in a fascinating discussion with Dr. Dave Rabin, a neuroscientist and creator of the Apollo device. In this episode of "Conversations Unplugged," they explore the cutting-edge technology behind Apollo, a wearable that harnesses touch therapy to help regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and improve sleep and energy.

In this insightful conversation, Christian Drapeau interviews Dr. Dave Rabin, who developed the Apollo device to address the chronic stress and trauma experienced by patients with PTSD. Dr. Rabin explains how Apollo works by delivering gentle vibrations that stimulate the nervous system through proprioception. This stimulation activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps regulate stress responses, improve focus, and promote deeper sleep.

The conversation touches on Dr. Rabin’s journey from treating PTSD patients to researching ancient practices such as breathwork and meditation, which helped shape the development of Apollo. By mimicking the effects of soothing touch, Apollo provides immediate relief from stress, and over time, helps retrain the body’s response to external stressors.

Dr. Rabin also shares the versatile benefits of the Apollo device, including its ability to improve heart rate variability, support energy levels, and enhance mental clarity. He highlights the device’s unique capacity to work alongside medications, biohacking tools, and even psychedelics, amplifying their effectiveness and reducing side effects.

This episode offers a deep dive into how wearable technology like Apollo can tap into the body’s natural healing mechanisms, creating new possibilities for managing stress and improving overall well-being.
