The vagus nerve is an essential key to managing chronic pain. The vagus nerve is not only our longest nerve, it also performs many crucial functions. This main nerve:

  • is responsible for the neurological stimulus transfer of organs (stomach, lungs, heart, liver, spleen, ..) & muscles to the brain. And vice-versa.

  • regulates the immune system thereby reducing inflammatory responses

  • regulates emotions by, for example, the release of oxytocin, the happiness hormone.

  • switches the brain into a survival mode in case of danger such as an illness or injury. Our system will fight, flee or freeze. All energy goes to the stress system, as a result of which other systems (eg musculature) lack energy.
