Digital Stress Thermometer

Dr. Lowenstein’s Stress Thermometer lets you see changes in hand temperature which is a reflection of your blood flow and a measure of your stress response. When a person is stressed, tiny blood vessels under the skin constrict and blood flow is redirected to the major organs and muscle groups. This is why your hands and feet feel cold when you are under stress. The opposite happens when you are relaxed as the tiny blood vessels under your skin dilate and the blood flows to your hands and fingers. This is why your hands and fingers feel warm when you are relaxed and cold when you are stressed. The Stress Thermometer gauges your baseline temperature and stress level and monitors any changes in stress level based on temperature. This is all thanks to the body's flight-or-fight response that reduces and increases blood circulation in the hands based on human stress levels.
