NATPAT's scent-based patches offer an alternative or complementary approach for managing childhood focus and emotional regulation.
NATPAT's central wellness offering is an adhesive patch that utilizes a proprietary method to gradually disperse a combination of essential oils — including mandarin, bergamot, and cedarwood. These oils are selected for their purported calming and grounding properties in aromatherapy. The scent-based patches provide a consistent olfactory stimulus intended to serve as a sensory signal to the brain, thereby promoting a state of relaxation and improved concentration without systemic ingestion.
NATPAT cites internal data gathered from a large number of families, which indicates perceived reductions in the time required for children to transition into focused activities and a decrease in emotional outbursts when the product is integrated into daily routines.
