How was your sleep before Somnox?
Finn: “Before using Somnox, I just couldn’t get to sleep and was sometimes still wide awake after 2 hours. Every night I was tossing and turning and just couldn’t clear my head. That’s why I couldn’t get to sleep.”
Finn’s mother Karin adds: “He used to reflect endlessly on the things that happened during the day. He would still be awake late at night, and when we used to go up to bed ourselves, we would hear him shout “Sleep tight!” from his room.”

How did you find out about Somnox?
Karin has spent a considerable time searching the Internet for anything to aid Finn with his sleeping difficulties. “You don’t want to give your child sleeping drugs, so I was trying to find natural remedies.” She eventually came across the Somnox Breathe and Sleep Companion, which was given to Finn as a Christmas present.
Finn: “I had seen clips of the Somnox Breathe and Sleep Companion and wanted to try it so badly. I couldn’t stop crying for over 15 minutes when I opened my present, that’s how happy I was! The first night we tried out all the buttons and sleeping positions. I used it properly the next night and when I did, I dozed straight off and had the best sleep I’d had in ages.”
How does Somnox help you sleep?
Finn likes it when someone is close to him, so he doesn’t feel alone. Somnox can provide him this feeling of affection and closeness. Finn: ”It’s like you are lying against someone who is already asleep. This relaxes me and makes me feel safe.” His mother adds: “I think Somnox was a turning point for Finn. He used to lie awake overthinking and worrying. He sleeps so much better now. Wherever we go, so does Somnox, even on big trips.”

How do you use Somnox?
Karin: “Finn only really uses ‘Somnox Sense’, as this makes the Breathe and Sleep Companion adjust itself to his own breathing pattern, which he enjoys the most.” Finn: “I copy the breathing pattern of the Somnox, just like I would do if I was lying next to mom or dad.”

Could Somox help other children as well?
By now Finn has both Somnox 1 and Somnox 2. He often lets other kids use Somnox 1. Karin: “One of our Somnoxes was loaned to an 8-year-old girl to try out. She could not sleep on her own and was always seeking close contact from her parents. Thanks to Somnox she can now fall asleep in her own bed. It’s not only amazing for her, but takes a ton of added pressure away from her parents as well.”
