Sleep Partner resets your body's clock using acupuncture

Everyone has their favorite way to minimize the effect of jet lag, but this one's new to us. The Sleep Partner is a wrist band that according to its makers, "stimulates the acupuncture points of the wrist associated with sleep" thereby helping to reduce stress, while helping to reset your body's natural clock. I must admit to a healthy dose of skepticism, although at around 20 UK pounds (about $30 US), getting one to try out is unlikely to break the bank.
