The concentrated little bit of cold really helps. I find that this device is most useful at night. When I am awakend by a hot flash I can hit the button, see the little blue triangle on my wrist and go right back to sleep. Worth every penny.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm amazed at how well it works for my morning hot flashes. I didn't think I'd use the warm function but it helps me relax in the evenings. I love mine!
It really works! When a hot flash starts, either push buttons or use app on the phone. Once it starts it interrupts the flash and it goes away. The tracking is great, you see your flash patterns and when you flash the most. The all night setting has been a God send!
Love the concept, didn't work for my needs. Wanted something to keep my temperature regulated while I slept (I tend to run warm) but unfortunately didn't have any noticeable effect.
I gave this band as a birthday gift to a friend that is going through prostate cancer. He was having hot flashes every hour. This helped reduces the number of flashes he was getting and alleviated the agony and sweats he was having. With a simple push of a button when those flashes hit, it cuts the time down drastically. He has the app to change the bedtime mode, so he is able to sleep comfortably w/o having to wake up constantly. All I can say is.....he is super grateful a product like this was made.
So far so great!!! I feel so much better with the Embr Wave 2. I wish I would have purchased it sooner. I no longer wake-up in a sweat and it helps with my hot flashes; which were extreme.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the third Embr Wave (one was the original, the other two have been the Wave2) I’ve purchased and I couldn’t imagine my life without it! It’s an extension of my arm! It has helped pull me through some physically debilitating times and helped me keep calm when everything else is pushing me otherwise.
