Optimizing Heart Rate Variability: Exploring Non-Invasive Vagus Nerve Stimulation’s Impact on Hunger and Palatable Drink Cravings

  The Significance of Heart Rate Variability in Relation to Food Reward and Energy Expenditure Heart rate variability is a measure of the variation in time between successive heartbeats, and it is an indicator of the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Fasting increases heart-rate variability, while food consumption decreases heart-rate variability. Therefore, […]

Enhancing Myofascial Pain Syndrome Treatment: Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation

  Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) manifests as discomfort due to taut bands and trigger points (TP) affecting muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. This prevalent condition affects approximately 12% of the population, notably prevalent among individuals aged 30-50. Diagnosis relies on identifying trigger points—hyperirritable spots within muscle fibers’ taut bands, often confirmed through physical examination and […]
