Nervous System Dysregulation: The Silent Pandemic You’ve Never heard of

Millions worldwide suffer from chronic tiredness, anxious thoughts, and digestive disorders, often finding little relief despite consulting multiple healthcare specialists and trying various solutions [1]. Experts are contributing this to an imbalanced nervous system.

  • Fight or flight vs rest and digest

    Recent research shows that many of these persistent health issues stem from nervous system dysfunction [2]. Our bodies naturally manage stress using two key components:

    The Sympathetic System (“fight or flight”) prepares us to handle threats and challenges. The Parasympathetic System (“rest and digest”) promotes healing and balance. Together, these systems keep us healthy and adaptable [3].

  • The impact of chronic stress

    When faced with constant stress, the nervous system becomes overwhelmed. This leads to excess cortisol, inflammation, and damage to various organs, causing brain fog, fatigue, anxious thoughts, and widespread health problems [4].

  • Restoring balance between systems

    Rather than treating individual symptoms, restoring harmony between the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems is crucial. By doing so, the body's natural healing mechanisms can function as intended, promoting overall well-being [4].

Understanding and addressing the nervous system today is unlocking new paths to lasting well-being and Nurosym is at the forefront with over a decade of empirical research and careful study of Vagus Nerve mechanisms.

What is the Vagus Nerve?

The vagus nerve plays a vital role in your body’s ability to maintain balance and manage stress. As a primary component of the parasympathetic nervous system, it helps regulate "rest and digest" functions that are critical for your well-being.

  • Plays key role in relaxation

    When the brain receives sensory information it uses the vagus nerve to carry activation signals to various organs, telling your body to relax [5].

  • Maintains balance and homeostasis

    The vagus nerve regulates vital functions such as heart rate, digestion, immune response, and emotional regulation in response to stress, maintaining homeostasis [5].

  • Runs through the whole body

    With a vast network of 100,000 distinct fibers, the vagus nerve influences multiple physiological processes. Even minor disruptions can have significant impacts, potentially leading to undesired symptoms ranging from anxious thoughts and chronic tiredness, to heart palpitations, or even autoimmune symptoms [6].

Supporting vagus nerve health can dramatically improve your body's stress response, resilience, and adaptability since so many health symptoms can be linked to nervous system dysregulation [6].

Vagus Nerve Stimulation as a Pathway to Health

Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) means sending targeted electrical signals to specific fibres of the vagus nerve to positively affect the body's physical and mental state [7].

For decades, medical experts have explored the potential of stimulating the vagus nerve to address a wide range of physical and mental health symptoms.

  • How it works

    Similar to how a pacemaker regulates the heart, VNS sends electrical signals to specific vagus nerve fibers to restore normal nervous system function. This therapy has shown promise in addressing symptoms previously resistant to conventional solutions [7].

  • From surgery to the first non-invasive device

    Initially, VNS required invasive surgery, making it accessible only for severe cases. However, in 2020, Nurosym released the first certified non-invasive device, capable of achieving similar effects, but eliminating the need for surgical procedures [8][9].

  • Nurosym in-house technology

    Nurosym uses Auricular Vagal Neuromodulation Therapy (AVNT), targeting the tragus of the ear for effective and safe stimulation of vagus nerve fibers [9][10]. This approach was empirically developed for over a decade by our team of leading neurologists and scientific researchers to ensure high efficacy while minimizing side effects.

  • Scientific validation and research

    The effectiveness of Nurosym has been confirmed through over 50 peer-reviewed studies with prestigious institutions, including Harvard, UCLA, and the NHS. Scientific results have shown measurable improvements, such as reduced inflammation and enhanced cardiac function [9].

  • Regulatory approval and accessibility

    Nurosym has received CE certification as a wearable device and can be purchased without a prescription, making it available for both diagnosed users and healthy individuals [9].

Benefits of Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Vagus nerve stimulation is FDA-approved therapy for headaches, and therapy resistant depressive states. It has also been scientifically proven to relieve a host of different health symptoms including [11]:

  • Chronic tiredness
  • Reduced Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
  • Depressive states
  • Anxious thoughts
  • Digestive issues
  • Respiratory issues
  • Inflammatory symptoms
  • Cognitive impairment
  • Low mood
  • Chronic pain
  • Headaches
  • Sleep issues

The Importance of Precision in Vagus Nerve Stimulation

Despite popular opinions on social media, activating the vagus nerve in a correct way without side effects is not an easy task. 

Imagine trying to tune an old-fashioned radio dial to a specific signal. The radio has a broad range of stations, but only one signal offers the clear, balanced sound you're looking for.

This analogy perfectly illustrates the challenges in vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) therapy. The vagus nerve has 60 fibers, each representing a specific signal linked to various bodily functions.The difficulty lies in targeting the correct fibers at the precise time and through the appropriate access points to achieve therapeutic effects without causing unwanted side effects [12].

Ensuring The Highest Quality Testing and Safety Standards

Since 2014, we've tried to better understand the complex and crucial role the vagus nerve plays in overall health.

Selective and safe vagus nerve stimulation has been at the core of our mission, given the nerve's extensive role and complex network of approximately >100,000 fibers.

  • Anatomical complexity

    The vagus nerve originates in the brainstem, extends through the neck, and connects to multiple organs. Nurosym has been rigorously tested not to impede fibers carrying important signals influencing everything from heart function to emotional well-being [13].

  • Therapeutic targeting

    Nurosym delivers electrical impulses only to specific fibers proven to produce targeted effects, thus capable of addressing symptoms like depressive states, heart problems, and inflammatory disorders [13].

  • Preventing side effects

    Since the vagus nerve affects all major organs, incorrect stimulation can actually lead to side effects, such as palpitations. Nurosym is continuously tested across all key biomarkers and has recorded zero reports of serious adverse effects in study populations.

  • Optimal access points

    The auricular branch in the ear, composed mainly of sensory fibers, is a safer option of accessing the vagus nerve compared to the neck, which has a delicate mix of sensory and motor fibers. The tragus is especially effective for VNS, offering a high density of afferent fibers near the skin surface for precise, natural activation of the parasympathetic nervous system [14].

Modulation vs Stimulation

When it comes to the vagus nerve, more stimulation isn't always better. Achieving effective results requires precision and careful control to avoid unintended consequences.

  • Precision is Crucial

    Like tuning a radio to the right signal, vagus nerve stimulation needs to be adjusted to each person's unique nervous system. The optimal settings vary day by day and between individuals. Excessive or imprecise stimulation can disrupt the nervous system and cause harmful side effects, even leading to permanent damage.

  • Certified Wearable Devices Matter

    To ensure safety, only rigorously tested non-invasive vagal neuromodulation systems should be used for vagus nerve stimulation. Nurosym stands out as a certified device, having passed extensive safety studies and met stringent EU regulatory standards for quality manufacturing.
