How to Mask Distractions all Night

Your Deep Sleep unit is powerful enough to be used anywhere in the room and placing the unit away from your beside will fill the room with soothing sound selections- ranging from pure white noise to incredible nature sounds- and will mask all external distractions. If you wish to help drown out sounds located within the bedroom (like a snoring partner), place your Deep Sleep unit directly at your bedside - preferably on a nightstand - and position the speaker toward you.

   How to Enjoy Sleep Therapy:
   Tap on the Sleep Therapy touch button and scroll through any one of our 8 Water or Nature relaxation tones. Choose the tone you wish to relax to as you fall asleep. Once you are asleep, your Relaxation tone will gently transition to a White Noise tone to keep you in the deepest sleep imaginable- all night long.
   NOTE: Sleep Therapy is designed to run all night, until you wake fully refreshed in the morning. Therefore, you cannot use Sleep Therapy with the Timer Mode.

Press and hold the "+" symbol to remove bass and achieve a higher pitch. Press and hold the "-" symbol to add bass and achieve a lower pitch.
