Broken Heart? Your Vagus Nerve May Be The Culprit
Heartbreak literally broken? Maybe your vagus nerve is ghosting you. Scientists snipped cardiac nerves in mice, mimicking a bad breakup. Their hearts aged faster! Fibrosis spiked, ejection fraction tanked. Ouch. Think clogged highways and grumpy heart cells. The vagus nerve, it seems, whispers sweet nothings (acetylcholine!) that chill out angry inflammatory molecules. No vagus? Inflammation party! But here's the plot twist: electrical zaps jumpstarted those nerves. Fibrosis? Reversed! Like a love song rewinding time. So, boost that vagal tone! Meditate, breathe deep, maybe sing to your heart. A happy vagus = a youthful ticker. Who knew?

Overview of Methods of Ultrasound Stimulation of Vital Vagus Centers
Hell all ! Whew! the group is expanding faster than I envisioned ! I want to provide a "Full Scope" view of what you *can* do with the Vagus Nerve Stimulation Tech we have available (Once you get to LVL 2) but - which, if you read this post, will be able to see right here on the wall. 1) Vagus Nerve Cervical Stimulation with Ultrasound: You will be placing the Ultrasound on the left side of the neck - 2-5 Mins is good - Start Low and Work Way Up - Shouldn't Feel Anything from Ultrasound Itself - but effects can be very calming if used before bed, assisting in Sleep, and improving HRV. 2) Spleen Stimulation with Ultrasound: A relatively difficult spot to stimulate, get help if possible. But can definitely be done yourself too. Going to want 5 mins on Medium to High intensity, due to likelihood of imperfect placement, and it's going to be "peering" through rib cage window slits. Excellent for helping your body control inflammation globally. 3) Cerebral Ultrasound - Insular Cortex Stimulation: This targets a region of the brain that deals with your bodies memory of previous inflammatory responses. Thus, stimulation of this region increases brain neuroplasticity, and enables you to "move on" from previous cyclical inflammatory responses. (People associate emotional "pain" with an inflammation response - thus a painful memory (trigger) (trauma even) can produce an identical inflammatory spike throughout the body) - The Insular Cortex is where this happens. Highly supportive of Spleen Stimulation protocol. 4) Other uses have been explored for Lymphatic Drainage, but this is on a case by case basis, and typically utilized best when/if the body has some major lymphatic drainage issue (water retention / lymph swelling in specific parts of the body [such as left side of body near armpits] that may benefit from increased lymphatic drainage activity) - Ultrasound amplifies Lymphatic systems (also glymphatic brain cleaning is activated as well) - and is generally utilized for 5 minutes on Medium to High settings, as is comfortable on the body - and likely for 1-2 weeks until swelling has subsided.

Clinical Trial Alert: New Vagus Nerve Stimulation Study For Depression
Clinical trial alert: Non-invasive ultrasonic auricular vagus nerve stimulation (uaVNS) is under investigation. Launched December 16, 2025, the trial employs low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) via a wearable ear device. LIFU targets the auricular branch of the vagus nerve. Acoustic pressure waves mechanically activate voltage-gated ion channels. This promotes afferent signaling to brainstem nuclei, enhancing parasympathetic outflow. Inflammation is modulated via the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. Compared to transcutaneous electrical VNS (taVNS), uaVNS offers superior penetration and spatial precision. No skin irritation. The double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled study includes 80 adults with major depressive disorder. Protocol: 30-min daily sessions for 12 weeks. Primary endpoint: MADRS reduction. Secondary: HRV, cytokine levels, fMRI. Preclinical rodent models show uaVNS yields a 25% greater HRV increase. Locus coeruleus norepinephrine modulation is 40% more robust than taVNS. https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07283913

USPro 2000 metal warming head
does anyone here have the small circle / dot appear on their 2000 head, if so is this a defective device or just use and age?
