Pilots, bikers and drivers — people whose sharp focus keeps others safe — often suffer quietly from temple pain, fatigue, and cognitive overload.
Current recovery tools are either too bulky, too generic, or too physically focused. There’s no elegant solution designed just for the temples — where mental stress often physically shows up first.
The Challenge
“Therabody makes your muscles feel better—but what about your mind?”
Therabody has a grip on physical recovery, but temple tension—a fusion of cognitive and muscular fatigue—was uncharted territory. And that’s where we stepped in.
We needed something:
Portable, like a helmet for peace.
Intuitive, like your body asking for water.
Targeted, like a hug just where it hurts.
The Design Oppurtunity
Heat. Vibration. Recovery.
Designed for high-performance minds and focused lifestyles.
One-touch stress relief. Wherever you go.

Type: Team Project (Team of 3)
Time: 75 Hours
Tools: Fusion 360, IBIS Paint
What They Needed?
Conceptualization
The concepts explore wraparound headbands and clip-on designs for a secure, comfortable fit. They integrate vibration, compression, and heat for targeted relief while adapting to various head shapes.
The concept made depicts a sleek, head-worn device designed for ergonomic comfort. It features a compact design with accessible controls, aiming to deliver targeted temple relief through heat and vibration.
Finalised Concept
We used AI to explore:
How the product might feel in real use — worn during night rides, cockpit moments, post-study breaks.
How lighting, form, and expression could convey the emotional impact of using TheraEase.
