A forward-leaning rest aid that supports your full body. Highly adjustable | Compact | TSA-Approved

Story

Tired of arriving at your travel destination exhausted and in pain?

We know the agony of sitting upright for long periods and trying to sleep in a cramped and uncomfortable seat while traveling.

That’s why we, a couple of travel fanatics and road warriors, created TruRest, a unique, forward-leaning rest aid solution that supports your full body (not just the head and neck but also the chest), facilitating more comfort and deeper rest on your flights and beyond (think mini portable massage chair/table)!

 

 

 

Don’t just take our word for it!

We consulted with doctors, studied body and breathing mechanics, and examined research while developing TruRest’s patented ergonomic design. The natural and instinctive forward-leaning position promotes deeper, easier, and more efficient breathing by easing the workload of the chest muscles and engaging the diaphragm. This helps promote the relaxation response.

At Hypnap, we know comfort isn’t one-size-fits-all! That’s why we made TruRest highly adjustable to fit a wide range of body heights, shapes and sizes.

Take TruRest on any adventure!

It’s easy to set up, lightweight and portable. Plus, it folds into the footprint of an iPad–perfect for traveling when you have limited space. TruRest is also TSA-approved, so you can easily pack it in your carry-on luggage!

 

Hey, frequent flyers! ✈️ Chloe, Co-Founder of TruRest, here.

It turns out misery can be very inspiring!

It all started on a flight I took from Singapore to the US. There was a problem with the airplane’s hydraulics, and when all was said and done, I was seated on the airplane for 32 hours. I couldn’t sleep sitting upright and getting comfortable in those cramped seats was impossible—the best I could do was lean my head against the seat in front of me.

Once I returned, I sketched ideas and built prototypes based on what I longed for on the flight—something that would fully support my body and relieve muscle tension so that I could truly relax. My friend Darryl, a former computer programmer and frequent business traveler, thought it was a great idea and agreed to partner with me to develop and launch the product. We then partnered with industrial designers and engineers to help us further develop the design. Throughout the process, we consulted with doctors and other health professionals. We also examined medical research, body mechanics and ergonomics to ensure we developed a product that correctly supported the body, facilitated comfort and relaxation, and was safe to use.

As the most trusted product launch company in the world, Enventys Partners has helped launch over 2,000 innovations with global sales of over $1 Billion for our clients.
