Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Service Description

A unique brain based therapy that targets the all important Vagus nerve. This cranial nerve is very important in all conditions that are inflammatory as the nerve when working well, activates the body's own anti-inflammatory reflex. The therapy involves the use of a TENS machine and special ear clips that are placed in the ear, the area that relates to the Vagus nerve. The machine is then turned on to stimulate the nerve at a level that is comfortable for the client. The stimulation effectively switches the nerve on and tones it, just like you would a muscle so it can go about it's job of regulating Homeostasis for the body. Before, during and after the 30 min stimulations you will be assessed for changes in the nerves function and match that across with symptomatic changes. There are specific frequencies that relate to different types of conditions and these parameters are based of what is in the research and literature of the use of this therapy.
