Abstract:
A stress reduction and/or pain reduction method and system, includes measuring an initial level of user stress, which level is unacceptable, having the user hold a card having multiple single digit math problems therein, the problems being in multiple series of four problems, the math problems comprising at least one of addition, subtraction, and multiplication problems, displaying to and instructing the user to complete a first series of four and only four problems correctly, displaying to and instructing the user to complete a second series of four and only four problems incorrectly, again measuring the user's stress level and repeating the steps of displaying and instructing, and measuring, until the output from the device is acceptable. The same process may be followed using a camera or video camera and analyzing the image(s) for a Duchenne smile, in place of or in addition to measuring the indicator of stress.

Claim (Index 1):
A stress and pain reduction method for a user, comprising:\n (a) providing a device for measuring stress level of a user; (b) measuring an output from the device indicative of an initial level of stress of the user, which initial level of stress is unacceptable, and transmitting that output to a processor which displays the output on a display; (c) having a user hold a card having multiple math problems therein, the problems being in multiple series of four problems, the math problems comprising at least one of addition, subtraction, and multiplication problems, and displaying the problems to the user; (d) instructing the user to view the problems on the card and to complete a first series of four and only four of the problems, and in completing the first series of problems to try to answer the problems correctly; (e) instructing the user to view the problems on the card and to complete a second series of four and only four of the problems, and in completing the second series of problems to try to answer the problems incorrectly; (f) again measuring the output from the device indicative of a level of stress of the user and transmitting the output to the processor which displays the output on the display; and (g) repeating steps (c) to (f) until the output from the device has changed from the output indicative of the initial unacceptable level of stress to an output indicative of a predetermined acceptable level of stress as determined by the processor, and displaying on the display that such predetermined acceptable level of stress has been attained.
