Stress level measurement

The heart rate variability (HRV) measuring device monitors the physiological components and shows the connection between lifestyle and well-being. Using personalized stress and recovery profiles, your employees and yourself can learn how to deal with stress and feel more comfortable by selecting exactly those activities that have a positive impact on their work, leisure and life as a whole. At the end of the measurement you will receive your individual daily report.The device is so small that it can be worn both during sports (except swimming) and in everyday life/sleep and is not a disruptive component.

 

But what is HRV and how does the measurement work?

Heart rate variability (HRV) refers to the temporal variations between heart beats.

It is generally recognised as a marker of the activity of the autonomic nervous system.

HRV can be influenced by a number of physiological phenomena:

• Inhalation and exhalation, respiratory control
  
• Adaptations of the vegetative nervous system (VNS)
  
• Hormonal responses
  
• Metabolic processes and energy consumption
  
• Physical activity, sport and recovery from physical activity
  
• Movements and changes of posture
  
• Cognitive processes and psychological stress
  
• Stress reactions, relaxation and emotional reactions
