The vagus nerve carries signals to the brain, heart, lungs and digestive system. Its the longest cranial nerve in the body, running from the brain all the way to the large intestine. At a bioelectric level it modulates the primovascular system and regulates the central nervous system, cardiovascular and cerebral vascular system to mention just a few.
When the vagus nerve loses its ability to signal correctly, it is commonly known as vagal dysfunction, it can compromise the body and put you at risk for high blood pressure, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, inflammation, insomnia, motor and sensory signaling dysfunction.
The auricular vagus nerve stimulator (aVNS) is a non-invasive wearable device for therapeutic wellness that addresses vagal dysfunction. It calms, tunes, stimulates and regulates the vagus nerve function. Modulation of the afferent vagus nerve affects a large number of physiological processes and bodily states associated with information signaling between brain and body.
The device improves quality of life, it is a preventative and maintenance approach to encourage and stimulate a natural state of healing with daily use.
