Research about vagus nerve stimulation
Read the scientific research on stimulating the vagus nerve and what positive effects vagus nerve stimulators can have on the body.
Research proves that VNS reduces stress and combats PTSD. (Mouli et al., 2021)
Science has shown that VNS has a positive effect on heart rate variability (HRV), a factor in psychological well-being and quality of life. (Machetanz et al., 2021)
Studies show that VNS has a positive effect on mood and overall well-being. (Fersti et al., 2021)
Evidence indicates that vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) shows positive results in the prevention and treatment of stress-related psychiatric disorders. (Bremner et al., 2020)
Cervical Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Stress Reduction
How Pulsetto works
Put on Pulsetto
Using Pulsetto couldn't be simpler – select the mode in the app, put the vagus nerve stimulator around your neck, and let the vagus nerve stimulation begin.
Relax while Pulsetto works for you
Because the vagus nerve regulates vital functions, stimulating the vagus nerve with electric impulses relaxes the body, reducing stress and increasing heart rate variability.

What does vagus nerve stimulation do?
Vagus nerve stimulation (or VNS) works by delivering electrical impulses to the vagus nerve, which is the major highway between the brain and internal organs. Surgically inserted implants have been used to stimulate the vagus nerve for treating epilepsy and depression for over 30 years. A similar effect is achieved from acupuncture, where the vagus nerve is stimulated with needles.
The Pulsetto device uses specific electric impulses to stimulate the vagus nerve – this is known as non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS). The Pulsetto vagus nerve stimulation increases heart-rate variability (HRV), which connects to a more relaxed state, reduced stress, and the ability to sleep better.
Is vagus nerve stimulation safe?
The Pulsetto device is FCC certified. This means that Pulsetto is approved for well-being use and compliant with the strict laws of the Federal Communication Commission.
The FCC certification ensures that:
- Pulsetto is based on scientific evidence.
- Pulsetto is safe to use.
What is non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation?
Non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) is a way to stimulate the vagus nerve with electric impulses from outside of the body without the need for invasive surgery.
Pulsetto technology uses the Bluetooth ultra low radio frequency energy (ULRE) – which safely passes into the body.
What is vagus nerve stimulation used for?
Vagus nerve stimulation has been used in treating epilepsy patients and people with depression. Due to its effects on the vagus nerve and body as a whole, it can also be used to achieve a more relaxed state, reduce stress and anxiety, and achieve better sleep.
What does vagus nerve stimulation feel like?
Vagus nerve stimulation with Pulsetto feels like a pleasant, light vibration or a tingling sensation in your neck area where the device sits.
