Vagus nerve massage, or vagal nerve stimulation is a technique that involves gently massaging the general area where your vagus nerve innervates your body. Your vagus nerve is a major nerve that runs from the brainstem down to the abdomen. Of course you are not directly stimulating this nerve, but you are indirectly soothing the areas that are affected.
Your vagus nerve plays a crucial role in regulates stress and anxiety by influencing your heart rate, digestion, and the "rest and digest" response of the parasympathetic nervous system.
When we massage anywhere from the brainstem down to the abdomen, the pathway of the vagus nerve, it can have a calming effect on your body. That message gets transmitted up to your mind.
Here are the 4 vagus nerve massage techniques I am going to demonstrate in this video:
1. Neck and Throat Massage:
Gently massage the sides of your neck with your fingers using circular motions.
Apply light pressure to the sides of your throat, moving from your jawline downward.
2. Humming or Gargling
Behind the Ear Massage:
Use your index and middle fingers to gently massage the area behind your ears in a circular motion.
This area includes the mastoid bone, which is located just behind the earlobe.
3. Chest and Heart Area Massage:
Gently massage your chest, especially around the heart area, using gentle circular motions.
This can help stimulate the vagus nerve and activate the parasympathetic response.
4. Abdominal Massage:
Lie down in a comfortable position and gently massage your abdomen in a clockwise circular motion using your palms.
The vagus nerve connects to various organs in the abdomen, so stimulating this area can help activate the nerve.
