This study demonstrates that transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS), particularly bilateral stimulation, may effectively reduce physiological stress markers and improve self-reported symptoms of depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbance.
The moderate correlation between cortisol and cortisone suggests convergent modulation of HPA-axis activity. These findings support the potential of tVNS as a non-invasive intervention targeting both physiological and psychological aspects of stress-related disorders.

VAGUS NERVE STIMULATION
How it works
If you feel stressed and anxious, yet nothing seems to calm you down, the source of the problem could be something physical: Your vagus nerve.
Your vagus nerve runs from your brain to your gut, and it’s responsible for your fight or flight response and regulating inflammation. In our modern stress-filled world, it can malfunction — keeping you stressed, anxious, and feeling wired at all times.
Pulsetto is the doctor-recommended device that safely soothes your vagus nerve at home. In just 4 minutes, clinically proven vagus nerve stimulation “resets” your mind & body to help you finally get relief from constant tension, stress, burnout and more — at the source.
Simple to use, powerful results
A Gentle Shift You Can Feel
Every body responds in its own time - and that’s completely okay.
Some people begin to notice subtle changes within just a few days: a quieter mind, a softer breath, a deeper sense of ease. Others experience a gradual shift over several weeks as their body finds its natural rhythm again.
Those with more intense symptoms or noticeable imbalances often report feeling a difference within 1-3 days.
Those with more intense symptoms or noticeable imbalances often report feeling a difference within 1-3 days.
With steady, daily use, many people describe a growing sense of calm, balance, and resilience over time.
You’re experiencing mild stress signals, but your system is still balanced.
Key Systems Influenced by the Vagus Nerve
One daily session supports your body's stress-response network — helping regulate sleep, mood, recovery, and resilience through nervous system balance.
Sleep quality improved after 4 weeks
A lot of sleep issues are not “lack of discipline.” They’re a regulation issue. If your autonomic system stays in activation mode, you tend to get lighter sleep, more awakenings, and you wake up not restored. Cervical vagus stimulation is designed to support the shift toward a recovery state, which is one upstream driver of sleep continuity.
Measured: In our 4-week study, people used Pulsetto twice a day for 4 weeks. Sleep improved by 41% in 4 weeks (and 32% by week 2), measured with PSQI — a validated sleep score based on real-life experience: time to fall asleep, night awakenings, overall sleep quality, and daytime energy.
Stress & overwhelm improved after 4 weeks.
A lot of what people call “stress” is a body state — feeling wired, tense, reactive, and unable to fully come down. That usually means your system stays in activation mode longer than it should. Cervical vagus stimulation is designed to support regulation and recovery physiology, helping the body return toward baseline after stressors.
Measured: In our 4-week study, people used Pulsetto twice a day for 4 weeks. We tracked longer-window stress biology using hair cortisol and hair cortisone (these reflect how activated your stress system has been over weeks, not minutes). After 4 weeks, hair cortisol decreased significantly.
Anxiety & worry improved after 4 weeks.
Anxiety often has a physical component: higher baseline tension, restlessness, shallow breathing, and feeling keyed up. This is closely linked to autonomic arousal — the system that controls how activated or settled your body is. Cervical vagus stimulation is intended to support autonomic regulation, which may help reduce that persistent activation and make it easier to return to a calmer baseline.
Measured: In our 4-week study, people used Pulsetto twice a day for 4 weeks. Anxiety improved on GAD-7 — a validated 7-question check-in that asks how often anxiety showed up in real life (feeling on edge, trouble controlling worry, restlessness, irritability). The answers add up to one score. Lower score = fewer anxiety symptoms and less disruption to daily life.
Low mood & motivation improved after 4 weeks.
Low mood is often tightly linked to recovery physiology: poor sleep, ongoing stress activation, and low “baseline energy.” When the nervous system stays activated for too long, people tend to feel more emotionally flat, less motivated, and more easily drained. Cervical vagus stimulation is intended to support regulation and recovery pathways — not to “force” mood, but to improve the physiological conditions mood depends on.
Measured: In our 4-week study, people used Pulsetto twice a day for 4 weeks. Mood symptoms improved on PHQ-9 — a validated scale that asks how often common symptoms showed up in daily life.
Brain fog & focus
Focus problems are often a nervous system state problem: when your baseline is too activated, your attention becomes jumpy, working memory feels smaller, and mental effort costs more. In that state, the brain prioritizes scanning and rapid switching over sustained concentration. Cervical vagus stimulation is intended to support autonomic regulation and arousal control — the physiology that makes sustained attention easier when the main friction is stress load, poor sleep, or constant stimulation.
Independent research: In human studies, non-invasive vagus stimulation has been shown to shift brain and body signals linked to attention — for example, changes in pupil size (a common marker of alertness/arousal) and changes in brain activity during attention tasks. Some studies also report better performance on simple working-memory tasks.
Slow recovery
Slow recovery usually means your system stays activated after load — work pressure, hard training, travel, poor sleep. In that state, the body has a harder time switching into “repair mode,” so you feel depleted longer and bounce back slower. The vagus nerve is part of the control system that supports that downshift into recovery physiology.
Independent research: Researchers often track recovery state with HRV (heart rate variability). HRV reflects how flexible your autonomic system is — higher HRV generally signals better recovery capacity and stress resilience, while consistently low HRV can signal sustained activation. In human studies, non-invasive cervical vagus stimulation has been shown to increase HRV compared to sham in controlled settings, supporting the idea that vagal stimulation can engage recovery-related physiology.
Pain & tension
Pain can feel worse when your body is stuck in a higher-alert state: you hold more muscle tension, you sleep lighter, and you become less tolerant to discomfort. That doesn’t mean the pain isn’t real — it means the nervous system can amplify it. Cervical vagus stimulation is intended to support autonomic regulation, which is one reason researchers study non-invasive VNS in the context of pain processing.
Independent research: In controlled human experiments, non-invasive vagus stimulation has been shown to change pain-related responses in the nervous system (how pain signals are processed and regulated), compared with control conditions.
Digestive discomfort
A lot of digestive discomfort is a nervous system pattern: when you’re stressed, digestion often slows or becomes more reactive. People notice it as bloating, fullness, “tight gut,” or discomfort after meals — especially during busy weeks. The vagus nerve is one of the main control lines for gut–brain signaling and upper-GI motility. That’s why vagus stimulation is being studied as a way to support “rest-and-digest” physiology when symptoms track with stress.
Independent research: In human research, non-invasive vagus stimulation has been studied in functional gut disorders, including randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses, with symptom improvements.

What is vagus nerve stimulation?
The vagus nerve is the major highway between your brain and internal organs. It releases neurotransmitters that reduce blood pressure and heart rate and increase alertness and focus.
