How It Works
Welcome to the world of biofeedback! We're excited to introduce you to your new Meru Health biofeedback device.
Your Meru Health biofeedback device electronically detects your pulse and provides information on your body's response to various breathing exercises.
Biofeedback exercises can help train the body to regulate involuntary functions such as breathing and heart rate. This practice enhances both physical and mental health, helping the body better manage stressors.
Here's a simple guide to help you set up.
Video Overview
This video offers an introduction to the device and its various features. You can also read through the details in the written section below!
Your Meru Health package includes a USB charger, an ear sensor, a phone stand, and a biofeedback device. The device turns on when the sensor cable is inserted into your charged biofeedback device and turns off when you fully unplug the sensor cable from the device.
Be sure to unplug the device after each use to save battery!
Understanding Indicator Lights
The device has four key light indicators. The color displays will indicate the following:
Blinking Red: Measuring Heart Rate
Solid Red: Low Battery
Solid Green: Charging
No Visible Light: Off and Fully Charged!
Connecting your Ear Sensor
- Open the Meru Health app and open a biofeedback breathing practice.
- Find a comfortable position and prop your phone against a stand or something that will help you sit with your back straight.
- Plug the ear sensor cable into the biofeedback device. This will turn on the device.
- Clip the ear sensor at the end of the cable anywhere on your earlobe.
- The Meru Health app will then connect to the device (if you are prompted to turn on Bluetooth, be sure to do so).
- You will receive a confirmation within the app if the device connection was successful.
