The emWave PC program has become the stress intervention tool of choice for many corporate wellness programs and healthcare providers worldwide. With emWave PC, users quickly learn essential self-regulation and emotional management skills that increase their internal awareness of when the stress response starts as well as how to shift out of stress the moment it arises, resulting in improved overall health, performance and productivity.

Bruce Cryer, President and CEO, HeartMath LLC, said: "Business and healthcare organizations come to us for our unique, scientifically based stress reducing and performance enhancing solutions which give their employees and patients increased control over their personal health, and have been proven to measurably improve health metrics and significantly increase performance.
