The Technology of Touch is more than just mechanical innovation. When viewed through the lens of human empowerment, it can be seen as a viable method for the brain and body to communicate clearly again. As a sophisticated healing and performance technology, it isn’t a product that is found in a lab or a pharmacy. It’s powered by what is already alive and waiting inside of you.
The body’s natural potential for health can be reclaimed. For many patients who are in and out of doctors’ offices, they are told they are “broken.” For them, advice steers them toward external chemicals, the accepted avenue to feeling better, thanks to outsourcing health. So, for some researchers and inventors, the goal is to flip that script.
Vibrotactile Trigger Technology (VTT™) is a new way to listen, not a magic fix for aches, pains, and dysfunction. This “tactile code” is meant to help the brain and body form a communication system that works correctly.
Dedicated Human Physiology Research
Jay Dhaliwal is a Canadian tech entrepreneur and inventor who worked in the world of software and dot-com era startups and transitioned to neuro-innovation. Dhaliwal has spent more than 15 years conducting dedicated research in human physiology and neural signaling, with a decade in the lab and field developing Vibrotactile Trigger Technology.
This crossroads of computer science and neuroscience has informed his research efforts and understanding of communication. With this knowledge, he has treated the human body’s neural pathways like a software interface that can be “re-coded” for better performance. Super Patch has been scaled into a $200 million global company in 2025, using no outside venture capital.
Inspired by Family Medical Needs
A deeply personal family tragedy from 1983 inspired Dhaliwal, as he watched his mother transition from a vibrant, unstoppable woman to almost full disability within just two years. She received a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and the limitations of modern medicine left her with few options but standard medications. He made it his life’s mission to find an improved method to fix the underlying “broken signals.”
For 15 years, he traveled the world, consulting with experts and researching a question: Can we restore broken brain signals through the skin without drugs or surgery? Super Patch became a son’s promise to help his mother in her quest to regain some sense of control and vitality.
Overcoming Skeptics and Challenges
The status quo exists in the pharmaceutical and supplement industries, and skeptics have tried to dismiss Super Patch as “too simple.” It is non-invasive, drug-free, and looks like a simple sticker. The brand used hard science and clinical proof to ignore “the typical ‘hype-cycle’ of Silicon Valley” and focused on securing six peer-reviewed, published clinical studies. Its focus on real-world results and word-of-mouth from millions of users left the brand “people-powered.” This pushed aside the challenge of building a $100 million-a-year brand.
The result is that the user’s body is the most important component in its own improvement. Super Patch doesn’t give them balance, sleep, or relief. It creates the space for the human body to find those things, using a simple, non-invasive but powerful signal. That change is based around increasing life quality, whether it’s more time with their kids or less discomfort during the day. The tool becomes a way to help them remember what their body is truly capable of at its best.
