no no, Not TENS units, This thing wraps around the Vagus nerve in your neck, and it does alot of the involuntary work for you, Like heart and breathing etc. That sounds dangerous to me
Yeah, They have these for people with epilepsy. they stimulate the Vagus Nerve by sending periodic shocks.. I guess the idea is to set some regularity for the brain to base by.. but does anyone else think its dangerous to send shocks into nerves? Wouldent the heart be impacted etc?
