Who is HoomBand for?
For those who have trouble falling asleep, whose mind remains restless in the evening, or who are looking for a natural solution to disconnect from screens and isolate themselves from noise.
HoomBand helps to relearn how to fall asleep effortlessly:
people prone to stress, intrusive thoughts, or nighttime awakenings;
night workers and those whose biological rhythm is shifted;
people sensitive to external noises or tinnitus;
children and teenagers who need a soothing ritual before sleeping.
HoomBand is not just an audio accessory: it is an initiation to conscious relaxation, a gateway to natural sleep.
How does it work?
Put on the headband, choose a story, a meditation, white noise, or a sound atmosphere.
The 4 mm flat earphones deliver immersive 3D sound without pressure, even on the side.
At the end of the audio, HoomBand turns off automatically: no screen, no handling.
Bluetooth is only used to start playback and can then be turned off to sleep without waves.
You can also listen to all your favorite content: Spotify, YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Deezer, etc.
HoomBand remains a comfortable headset, not a closed system.
The observed benefits
Faster falling asleep and deeper sleep thanks to guided breathing and relaxing sounds.
Reduction of stress, intrusive thoughts, and micro-awakenings.
Soothing ritual that promotes the natural secretion of melatonin.
A French innovation inspired by science
More than 200 hours of original audio, spread across several dozen episodes written, composed, and mixed by screenwriters, musicians, sound engineers, and sleep therapists.
Each story is an immersive experience where sleep science meets narrative and sound art.
At LIVLAB, we were the first to bring together two worlds that did not previously intersect:
scientific relaxation (hypnosis, heart coherence, guided meditation, body scan)
and the imagination of cinema (science fiction, immersive documentary, sensory adventure).
Each audio is a custom creation, recorded in our studios, with care worthy of a film soundtrack.
No content is generated or purchased: everything is written and produced by our team.
Each episode represents a true work of sound craftsmanship — up to €2,500 in production and several weeks of writing, composing, and mixing.
Musicians and sound engineers design soundscapes from real natural sounds (forests, seas, winds, creaks, rain…) and spatialized textures associated with precise binaural frequencies.
Everything is designed to create a complete immersion of body and mind.
The result: stories between dream and reality, where relaxation techniques are integrated into the narration.
You are not listening to an exercise — you are living an adventure.
An experience between audio film and scientific ritual, where breathing, voice, and music harmonize to guide the brain toward deep sleep.
Inspired by more than 13,000 studies on breathing, heart coherence, meditation, and hypnosis, HoomBand transforms sleep science into inner cinema.
What the experts say about it
Designed with sleep doctors, sophrologists, and sound engineers, HoomBand is now used as a tool for relaxation and sleep hygiene.
"Basically, the recordings we created naturally reactivate the sleep mechanisms that we all possess. In form, it is unprecedented! For the first time, hypnosis sessions become metaphorical stories in which you are the protagonist. The result is striking."
— Thibault Gouttier, Hypnotherapist and project member
"The headband is great, very ergonomic, comfortable, and not bulky."
— Mireille Barreau, sophrologist and stress management advisor
History & manufacturing
After helping millions of insomniacs with Dodow, its founders — three former French insomniacs — wanted to go further: to create an object capable of replacing screens with imagination, and bringing dreams back into the sleep ritual.
Their intuition: if light could relearn to breathe, sound could relearn to dream. They brought together hypnotherapists, sophrologists, neuroscientists, film screenwriters, composers, and sound engineers around the same table.
The goal: to invent a new format of falling asleep, halfway between sensory experience and cinematic storytelling.
Each story is written, recorded, and mixed by professionals, with the same standards as an audio film production.
It is this unprecedented blend of science, emotion, and cinema that has captivated the press and the thousands of users who have made HoomBand their evening ritual.
The result: an object designed for absolute comfort, an audio headband that does not press, does not heat up, and is completely forgotten.
And inside, a unique sound library, the result of several years of research and creation, so that falling asleep becomes a moment of pleasure again.

"Deep down, the recordings we created naturally reactivate the sleep mechanisms that we all possess. In form, it is unprecedented! For the first time, hypnosis sessions become metaphorical stories in which you are the protagonist. The result is striking."

Dr Sarah Bleichner-Perez
Head of the nuclear medicine department at CH René DUBOS. Medical hypnoanalgesia
" The mandatory one-hour muscle rest phase for FDG PET (Positron Emission Tomography) being very often anxiety-inducing, we had the idea to offer our patients one of those famous little boxes dedicated to relaxation sold commercially. We chose a model without time limitation: HoomBook by Livlab broadcasts either sound journeys or musical atmospheres particularly suited for relaxation. The infinite mode allows continuing the stories with a sound atmosphere and thus to continue until the next stage of their care... A real success, especially with our patients who are used to coming!"
"The HoomPlay app’s offerings (which the company says are updated regularly) are a nice perk. The tracks range from 25 to 60 minutes and can loop to play all night. Should you choose not to use the app, the HoomBand headphones also stream audio via Bluetooth."
Ultra-thin & adjustable headphones, ideal for side-sleepers, for workout, yoga, meditation, naps. +100h free audio sleep content created by best sleeping therapy experts Hypnotic stories, Role plays, Guided meditations, Soundscapes, White noises, ASMR...
When I wake early, I simply slip it over my head and turn on sleep meditation music. You can also choose to listen to a white noise loop or relaxing soundscapes, or you can of course just tune in to your favourites.
This sleep headband boasts a wide library of meditations and sleep stories, in a soft and comfortable design. It's a decent choice if you're looking for an adjustable headband
"Extra-flat earphones that are integrated so you can sleep even on your side while still having them in your ears. So you can either play music, of course, to fall asleep, but you also have hypnosis sessions, guided meditation, and ASMR."
Il s'agit d'un bandeau doté de deux écouteurs et relié à son smartphone. L'intérêt, outre un confort qui n'a rien à voir avec les oreillettes ou les écouteurs classiques, est d'offrir une vaste bibliothèque de programmes de relaxation ou de méditation, de 20 à 60 minutes, thématisés et accessibles
"Finally, the release or the putting to sleep. The listener, after several phases where they have been solicited with many stimuli, must let go. This time, the goal is to soothe them and lead them towards falling asleep. The story ends, you are supposed to, if not already done, be asleep."
"Alternative solutions exist: this is what the brand Livlab offers with its HoomBand and its Dodow system. These solutions have already won over more than one million people worldwide, and one of them may, perhaps, interest you and help you sleep better."
« The device aims to help you relax and clear your mind as you prepare to fall asleep. It takes the form of a small disk, and tapping on the top will activate a slowly pulsing blue light. This dim light projects onto your ceiling to help you pace your breath. »
Who wouldn’t want a better night's sleep? At less than £50, the Dodow light offers a simple solution to a big problem. No pills. No apps. You don’t even need a charger. Dodow’s loyal fans say it gets them to sleep in half the time and can cure insomnia for good.

"It's a really soft material. It's a total blackout, but also, if you look here and here, you'll see that these are soft headphones. You can adjust them to your ear. So when you fully put this on, you sync it up. Hoom has an app and has different sleep stories for you."
« It's a blue light, but not one of the blue lights that keeps you up. It's just a very calming blue light. And you work your breathing with the light. Also, if somebody else is in the room sleeping, what I love is that this makes no noise. It's kind of training you to sleep.»
I have slipped into and I am unconscious before the cycle is up. The next night, I am awake to see the light turn off, but fall asleep shortly after.
Hoomband is my must have summer travel essential! This ultra-comfortable audio headband helps you relax, block out noise, and fall asleep faster on planes, trains, or long road trips. With immersive soundscapes and guided meditations,
The breathing exercises were pleasant and calming. Still, I often don't have much decompression time before hitting the hay, so it was nice to concentrate on something other than my own mile-a-minute thoughts. Meditative indeed!
«Dodow is a LED light metronome that helps you relax. A glowing, pulsating blue light is projected on the ceiling. You coordinate your breathing to the dynamic light changes. I find it extremely calming and peaceful.»
"Today, we hear a lot about high-tech, connected products. What we wanted was precisely a disconnected product. To fall asleep, you need to be disconnected."
Et c’est là que la magie Hoomkid opère ! Vous pouvez commencer à l’utiliser avec un enfant à partir de 3 ans. A cet âge, ils sont capables d’identifier et de verbaliser quelle situation provoque quelle émotion. C’est donc le moment idéal pour leur apprendre à les appréhender de façon douce et ludiqu
「質の良い睡眠の鍵は、実は呼吸のリズムにあった。まずは自然な眠りにつくための最適な呼吸法を体に覚えさせる光のメトロノーム「Dodow」を紹介したい。ゆっくりと点滅するブルーLEDのリズムに合わせ呼吸を矯正することで、眠りにつく最適なリズムを体に覚えさせることができる。起動時間は8分間と20分間の2段階で、使用後は自動的にスイッチが切れる仕組みとなっている。 」
Der Dodow ist eine handtellergroße batteriebetriebene Lampe, die mit pulsierendem, blauem Licht den Atemrhythmus vorgibt: sechs Atemzüge in der Minute für schnelleres Einschlafen.
Dodow, per addormentarsi più in fretta Dodow è un metronomo luminoso progettato per aiutare ad addormentarsi più velocemente. L'esercizio dura 8 o 20 minuti, dopodiché Dodow si spegne da solo
Dodow è un metronomo luminoso che ti insegna ad addormentarti naturalmente, senza bisogno di farmaci. L’esercizio dura 8 o 20 minuti, dopodiché Dodow si spegne da solo. In media i nostri utilizzatori dichiarano di addormentarsi o riaddormentarsi 2,5 volte più velocemente
Hoomkid a été créée avec cette volonté d’apprendre à tous les enfants à mieux gérer leurs émotions du quotidien. Une boîte à histoires captivantes, sans ondes ni écrans, faisant barrage aux traditionnels écrans et qui condense des années d’expérience en consultations infantiles.
"Véronique had big problems falling asleep, but for 3 months it seems that she has found the solution, thanks to her little device: Dodow; she manages to regulate her sleep. It would be enough to synchronize her breathing to fall asleep more easily!"
Pocas situaciones son tan desesperantes como una noche de insomnio. Pero gracias a este novedoso metrónomo, puedes quedarte dormido de forma natural y sin necesidad de medicamentos.
"It's a little favorite, Dodow is not a connected device, you just have to place it like that on its case and on top of that it's a French creation! It also works for children and for anyone."
Dr. Marcel Garrigou-Grandchamp, a general practitioner in Lyon, has already recommended Dodow to a handful of patients. "They often request hypnotics. This device seemed to me to be an interesting alternative and I have had good feedback."
« Ultra-efficace, notamment chez les enfants, Dodow promet un temps d’endormissement bien plus court au bout de quinze jours de pratique quotidienne. »
Es ideal para los que se mantienen despiertos en plena noche, embarazadas que no pueden dormir, quienes viven en lugares ruidosos, tienen preocupaciones, estrés, e incluso insomnio crónico. El regalo más original para caer dormido.
"The Dodow metronome (just under 50 euros) projects a circle of light onto the bedroom ceiling*, which rhythmically grows larger and smaller. You then only need to adjust your breathing to the rhythm of the light beam, and your body will relax."
Esiste un regalo che dica "ti amo" più di quello che concilia sonni sereni e rapidi, rapidissimi? Dodow è il metronomo luminoso che, con proiettando un fascio di delicata luce blu, guida inspiro ed ispiro fino a crollare in un sonno riposante in 8-20 minuti.
"The 3 friends devised a method to find sleep accessible to everyone. Rémy, one of the first users, suffered from nighttime awakenings and his thoughts prevented him from falling back asleep well; for him, the device worked almost immediately."
Este ingenioso aparato es un metrónomo luminoso para enseñarte de nuevo a quedarte dormido de forma natural, sin tomar medicamentos. Los ejercicios duran de 8 a 20 minutos y luego Dodow se apaga solo.
"The creators of this small device aim to 'awaken the sleep' of people suffering from occasional or chronic falling asleep disorders, using a method inspired by the breathing practices of meditation, yoga, and sophrology."
L'utilisation est simple et la « conteuse » utilisable en quasi-autonomie. L'enfant choisit d'abord le mode, « calme » avec des activités relaxantes, ou « éveil » plus énergisant. Enfin, le mode audio permet de piocher dans 54 histoires, 24 méditations, 6 postures de yoga, 12 ambiances musicales…
「気分が落ち着かなくて、寝付けないことはありませんか? 快適な睡眠を取るためには、呼吸速度が大切だそうです。しかし、自分でコントロールするのは簡単ではありません…。 そんな悩みを解決するのが光のメトロノーム「Dodow」。 気分が落ち着かなくて、寝付けないことはありませんか? 快適な睡眠を取るためには、呼吸速度が大切だそうです。しかし、自分でコントロールするのは簡単ではありません…。」
「仕事で多忙な毎日を送っていてなかなか寝付けない人、私のように子育て中でなかなか眠りにつけない人、ストレスや慢性不眠症、妊娠による不眠など、眠れずに困っているすべての人の救世主といえる。使い方は簡単。「Dodow」を手の届くところに置き、天井に映し出されたやわらかな青い光を眺める。光が明るくなったら息を吸い、暗くなったら息を吐くことを繰り返すだけ。」
C’est cependant un outil vraiment intéressant sur lequel s’appuyer pour échanger avec son enfant et ouvrir le dialogue quand on se retrouve démunis face aux émotions de l’enfant. Je vous invite chaleureusement à tester les contenus par vous-même.
Pierre, our co-founder, answers Stéphane Soumier's questions to introduce Dodow on the Hello Startups set, which welcomes "the entrepreneurs who are changing the world and who will help you sleep with Dodow, the tool to regain control of your sleep!"
"Melatonin is stimulated again, the brain is in alpha mode (characterized by low-frequency brain waves) and various thoughts detach. In eight minutes, Livlab promises that the brain will have disengaged, as if caught by sleep."
"We need to find a physical product to help people do it more simply because it took me 6 months and we needed to find a product to help people do it in 8 minutes. Dodow is this little object that you will place on your nightstand."
"HoomKid is a tool that I find fabulous because it is the first counter that talks about emotion. And in fact, inside each story, there is a key to personal development or a key to help the child experience an emotion."
「世界中で33万人以上の不眠症の悩みを解決した光のメトロノームが、満を持して日本で発売に! 眠るために必要な呼吸に着目し、Dodowから発せられる優しい青の光に合わせ、明るくなるときに息を吸い、光が弱まったときに息を吐く、というリズムが脳を休ませ、なにもしていないときよりも平均2.5倍の速度で入眠できることが確認されているそう。」
"In fact, it works like a light metronome. It normally projects a bluish halo on the ceiling that grows and shrinks at a regular pace. The idea, actually, is to align your breathing with this light that pulses very gently."
"Dodow and Hoom market HOOMBAND, an audio headband designed by insomniacs. It is complemented by hypnotic stories to fall asleep available on the Hoom application."
"But my problem would rather be staying awake. My wife, the blue, it inspires her! When I think about everything that would have changed in my life if Dodow hadn't pushed my wife into the arms of Morphée."

FAQs
Is the HoomBand compatible with all mobile phones?
The built-in earphones in HoomBand are compatible with any mobile phone that has Bluetooth 5.0 communication.
The HoomBand app is available on:
Android versions higher than version 7,
iOS versions higher than version 10+ (iPhone 5S).
The full charging time of the HoomBand is about 2 hours for a battery life of 8 hours (playback at a moderately high volume). To be sure to have battery, charge it in the morning ;)
Once the story is finished and I have fallen asleep, what happens next?
You have the option to schedule a story or a meditation only. In this case, the application closes automatically once it is finished. You also have the option to schedule a loop of white noise or soothing sounds to accompany you throughout your night!
The Bluetooth module stops working after 10 minutes of inactivity.
What exactly does the Livlab application contain?
The Livlab application provides access to a unique format, much richer than simple "hypnotic stories" or "rain sounds." Each audio is an original creation, designed as a true immersive sound production combining script, voice, music, and sleep science. We have brought together screenwriters from cinema, musicians, sound engineers, and sleep therapists (hypnotherapists, sophrologists, psychologists) to imagine an unprecedented format: long, captivating, and soothing stories, where relaxation techniques (heart coherence, hypnosis, body scan, guided meditation) are integrated into the narration without ever breaking the listening pleasure. Each episode is custom-produced in our studios, with the quality of a film soundtrack. The average creation cost exceeds €2,500 per audio, which guarantees exceptional writing, mixing, and immersion quality. The application currently offers more than 100 audios and story contents available in French and English. You can customize your evening session according to your desires: duration, atmosphere, type of story, or background sound (sea, wind, forest, rain…).
And what if the HoomBand does not suit me?
You can calmly try your HoomBand for 100 nights after your purchase date. If it does not give you complete satisfaction, you can send it back to us and we will fully refund you (excluding return shipping costs).
Can my children use my HoomBand?
Yes, it is entirely possible to use HoomBand with children, provided that attention is paid to the listening duration and volume level. Their hearing being more sensitive, it is recommended to limit prolonged exposure and to use the lowest possible volume. That said, for the youngest, we have created a product specially designed for them: HoomKid. This audio storyteller offers soothing and educational stories, accompanied by headphones limited in decibel level, perfectly suited for young ears. HoomKid is therefore the ideal alternative to introduce children to the benefits of sound, relaxation, and imagination, safely.
How do I charge my HoomBand?
When the battery is low, use the supplied USB cable to recharge your Hoomband. Connect it to a USB power source such as a computer or a charger of up to 10 W for safe and efficient charging.
