Vagal nerve stimulation
The easiest way to stimulate the vagal nerve is with a rechargeable vibration device placed very lightly on the area of the zyphoid process (flappy cartilage) where the rib cages meet below the sternum.
Seizures
In studies, 40% of people with epilepsy can see a 50% reduction in seizures with a vagal nerve stimulation device (VNSD).
Depression
50% of people in some studies found over 50% reduction of depression with a VNSD.
VNSD appears to also help:
Inflammation
Autoimmune disorders
Sepsis
Pain
Migraines & headaches
Weight loss if overweight
Cardiovascular disease, stroke, heart attacks
Lung damage
TBI
Diabetes
