Much better! I didn't do the calculations you did, just hit the button for translate into English and it came up with $1990.00.
Vagus nerve stimulation - Nurosym device
- Thread starter Bergkamp
- Start date
I know someone who has a Vivosmart 4 with the body battery, and she likes it very much. It helps her a lot with pacing. I'd thought of getting one and then forgot about it! (no surprise) Anyways, thanks for posting about this, I will think about it again . . .
if I should by one now, I’d probably by a forerunner 255.
(I’ve bought my watch used, I don’t know how easy it is in other countries)
It measures HRV -heart rate variability- all night as well, with its own graph.
It’s seems to be an extremely helpful addition.
In the meantime you might want to start with this free app, it’s under development , from someone with log covid. It seems they are working on a watch as well

Had noooooo clue such a thing existed, but yes, it is indeed expensive. I'd be tempted to try one that's cheaper than 700€ (money back if not satisfied or not), as someone earlier in the thread mentioned one: but how do we know how efficient those other devices are compared to the Nurosym (which seems the state of the art device atm).
Has ANYONE on here had improvement with brain fog ? I've read about improvement on mood, feeling calmer (sympathetic NS and inflammation reduced), ppl mentioned sleep... that sort of thing... but anyone actually improved their brain fog with this thing ? Thx.

I used the Nurosym vagal stimulator for an hour a day for at least two months. I imagined that it had helped a little with my IBS, but my meticulous records show that it had no discernible effect - except on my bank account. However, I also do daily breathing exercises and take pills that, according to my tracker, have a clear effect on my autonomic nervous system. So it's possible that the Nurosym would have helped me before I started those treatments.

Do you have any updates on the people you know using this device, please?
No i haven’t.
It went quiet. But I can ask in the group, and see if I get any updates, my impression is that none of us got much out of it in the long run.
I have read in some other thread, that even if one device doesn’t suit you, another one might. That person had tried three different devices I believe, before he found one they helped him.
But who can afford that?

i have found you can manipulate the ANS with breathing exercises.
i have the ELITE hrv app that offers different breathing exercises of wich i mostly use "Calm Anxiety" being a 4s inhale through nose and 7s exhale through the mouth.
today for example my baseline rMSSD was 15ms and it shot up to a whopping 54ms while doing the exercise.
this may be a cheaper alternative for people wanting to train and stimulate their nervous system.
disclaimer: unclear if the effects last or wear off after breathing technique is stopped.....
just wanted to share it because i got a coospo chest-strap that was on sale for 30 bucks and that sounded a bit cheaper.

@Artemisia
I’ve got responses from 3 different people.
One had used the exact same as I have, and didn’t feel any difference.
Two had something similar, and the two of them was very pleased with it.
For one of them, her POTS was much better, reducing her heart beats (rate?) from 120-130 to 80-100.
Her mental energy has increased, but physical energy is same as before
The other got more blue on her watch ( meaning better rest)
Both of them have this one:

Thanks very much for the update!
So you and the person who didn't feel any difference have the Inspire Ring from Euron Labs, correct?
And the two who are pleased have the NeuroTrac TENS?

Interesting... but how do you know that stimulates your vagus nerve, and that it causes the fatigue? Curious.
I also get fatigue after a bowel movement but I assumed it was endotoxin / bad bacteria moving in my intestines and getting activated.
Well, I was kind of joking since I don't know what those vagus nerve stimulator machines do --- but if you read up on feeling fatigue after bowel movement the consensus seems to be stimulation of vagus nerve. Some people get a drop in blood pressure from it which makes them faint. I've never had that happen but boy I feel crappy. I can be having a pretty decent morning feeling good and then take a crap and then UGH, feel like ...errr..shit.
