Vagus Nerve Stimulation
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a treatment that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the vagus nerve. The ZenoWell Luna utilizes transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation, which targets the branch of the vagus nerve in the ear.
Best Mattress
Finding the perfect mattress can be difficult. Some people like firm mattresses, some like soft mattresses, and some like them in between. Since people often ask me what mattress I sleep on, here's a 1 year follow-up to the Back Science Mattress I currently sleep on.
Active Sitting
Active sitting is sitting on an unstable surface to help improve posture and strengthen core muscles. This can help relieve back pain and other issues from prolonged sitting. Active sitting became popular when people started using a Swiss ball or stability ball to sit on, but now there are a variety of chairs that do the same thing in a safer way.
Use a TENS Unit
TENS units & EMS units can be very helpful when recovering from an injury or surgery. The two are very different, but often come together in one unit like the iStim EV-805 unit I use in this video.
Vagus Nerve Pulsetto FIT
Vagus nerve stimulation uses gentle electrical impulses to stimulate the vagus nerve. The vagus nerves control our parasympathetic system (resting and digesting) by sending signals to the brain to release calming neurotransmitters.
Cyclic Sighing
Cyclic sighing, also known as physiological sigh or double inhale, can be a great way to help relieve stress and anxiety.
Improve Posture
People often have poor posture when they are working at a desk or gaming all day. These quick exercises will help improve bad posture fast, and they are easy to do at your desk or chair.
Writer Stretches
Writers and Office Workers often get really focused on their work and tend to have a lot of neck and back pain from bad posture at a computer. Their wrists and hands can get tight and over worked as well. These stretches and exercises are not only great for writers, but they are also great for anyone who works at a desk all day.
Avoidable Injuries
Some of the most common accidents and injuries happen doing everyday activities. Walking, getting in and out of the shower, and even going up and down stairs can be dangerous for people with limited mobility. These simple exercises should help prevent these types of injuries.
Exercise Tendons
Exercising your tendons isn't something most people think about since tendons aren’t muscles, but tendon-specific exercises can improve joint health, reduce pain and stiffness, and improve speed and agility.

Walk with a Cane Correctly

Smart Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy's popularity is rising, and there's a lot of research that shows red light and infrared light therapy can be beneficial for many different things. In this video, I take a look at the Luxxe Flex smart red light therapy panel.
