They sell clips now on amazon that already have the two sides combined (no superglue needed!)
Have you a Link? Dont find them
I would also like to find them. I don't think YT allows sharing links directly though.What are the search terms that return the correct product on the first hit?
If you could share in the comments the name of the clips not the link. But the name of the earclips you are referring to. Thanks!
Thank you so much for posting these- so informative. I’m going to try this today!
Thank you for posting this. I started having gut symptoms and tinnitus at the same time (my actual 64th birthday)! I had Covid two weeks prior … never put it all together but I have been suffering for months. My Chiropractor discussed Vagus Nerve and treated me for the countless other things going on, and made me aware that the side ache in my hip was not muscular.
I am willing to try this and the supplement you suggested. I’ve been doing GoodBelly’s for 8 days (they recommend 12), so this will be part of that whole thing.
It's also been shown to reduce ischemia reperfusion injury to the optic nerve in conditions like glaucoma.
Thank you for posting. Do different parts of the ears treat different parts of the body. Looking for Gi tract relief
Thanks for the update video! Does anyone know how the dual electrode ear clip compares to one ear clip + electrode on shoulder/traps muscle?
Thanks so much for your videos. Can you please post a link to the tens unit you use and a link to the ear clips. Please post thus...with brain fog it's hard to wade through all of the product there...and funding ear clips that work with your unit. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing your insights. Have there been any advancements in the Tinnitus studies and VNS effects on mitigation or possibly even a cure?
Thanks for the info. Can I ask did you say coffee is ok or should be avoided ? That bit was too fast for me to catch what you said.
I have slow motility, slow gallbladder, IBS-C, Celiacs, hashimotos, ear ringing, chronic fatigue, brain fog, depression and anxiety. I started using it and definitely improved my mood. It us starting to help my motility. I take magnesium powder and calcium before bed which greatly improved my sleep. I will switch up the hz. Prior I was doing Wim Hof breathing and cold plunging but didn't help my gut. I stay off gluten and dairy. I tried a keto diet but had trouble digesting meat.
How long do you do it for, please? I've just received mine and am looking for a fybro/chrinic fatigue sufferer who has experience . Thanks .
Great video, I've been using this for about 4 weeks and it really helps me feel better as I'm working through long covid issues.
How do you get the clips? I see no link.
@@cyndimiller3569 I got mine from Amazon but there are other online vendors that sell them. Make sure to get two. I had to mate the two clips together...it's easy but will require cutting and gluing, pretty simple.
@@rogersommers3721 Thanks for your reply.
I got them online. They arrived pretty quickly. I cut the straight side with heavy scissors and glued with E6000. My question is …if it feels like a pin prick, is that to be backed off on intensity dial? I don’t feel a whole lot (even with wetting the pads a little) until I feel a pinch.
Can you put a link for the exact page for the ear clip? I tried to find it by couldn’t.
Can you recommend an affordable tens unit that has all of those modifiable features?
What is the benefit of using the two ear clips instead of muscle pad?
Do you know the research on a clip on the tragus and the conch at the same time?
Thanks for the update. Much appreciated. My tENS is going to arrive in a few days and I'm looking forward to adding it to my 'arsenal' of life support activities! If I become able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, I'll let you know- (smiley)
How are things going for you with the VNS?
Been a month or so and I feel it is helping normalize my ANS. Really pleased. Don't miss a session. Open to input/feedback about optimizing my sessions.
Hi Marshall can you share the product you used? Maybe the search terms that uniquely identify it on Amazon or wherever you bought it
Does this increase the electrical flow through the nerve? Do the studies that report benefits include this kind of ear clip?
Have any people reported this helping with weight loss?
Thank you so much for the free download on your last video. I ordered my tens unit and ear clips. Been doing VNS for about a week. Definitely feel calmer. Also working on gut issues. System wide inflammatory issues, biotoxic mold that I can’t resolve, MTHFR, lung issues and weight gain from mold. Leptin and insulin resistance that continues unaffected by keto/carnivore, low carb for decades and the various injectables(bayetta,symlin,victoza, sermorelin)LDN, metforman and still nothing.I’m praying this works...aligning the missing link! Any studies on weightloss?, I’ve read the few that popped up on google but in practice at your place?
Look into Wim Hof cold therapy (additional way to reduce the vagus nerve’s sympathetic response- fight/flight/freeze- & increase the parasympathetic response), & his breathing method. Always check w/ your doctor first, of course. The cold therapy is an especially quick way to trigger the parasympathetic response, thereby strengthening & increasing that response over time.
Please can you send me the link to buy the tens unit with the ear clips..thanks so much..
Hey doc! Im in South Africa and looking to buy a tens and ear clip. Cant find out here - would you recommend any machine and ear clip on amazon or any store that exports overseas? Thanks!
i always heard to only use the right ear? for people with dysautonomia would it not make more sense than using the left???
I have a tens unit but it has modes like modulation, gate control, is "normal mode" aka continuous the only mode that you can use?
How do I get started? Do you guys offer telehealth?
Why do you need to clip both the red and black electrode on the tragus? why not just one?
Went to your website, clicked, shop, didn't see the clips or tens on any of the 4 pages there?
I'm trying to find the ear clips on your website to buy but don't see them.
Can you just use two ear clips and put one on the concha and the other on the tragus? I'm trying that now and it seems to work and is easier than cutting and modifying the ear clips. Thanks for your videos!
exactly....thats what I do. I think it's every bit as effective
I have a dr ho unit is there a setting I can use this on or do I have to try and find one without presets ..is there a good inexpensive unit that is rechargeable ? I have cptsd
Went to the website but didn’t find any links regarding the tens unit and the earclips.
Should I it be making a ticking noise, even on the lowest setting?
What did you cut the earclip with?
where can i order the clips?
My therapist said to put them on my ear lobe?
H1 receptors, not H3.
Does this help with inflammation and digestion?
Does tens unit use micro current?
I am not able to find from where can I buy the device..
Please can you send me the link to buy the tens unit with the ear clips..thanks so much..
I have an alpha stim…is this the same idea?
I’m not understanding the point of combining two clips, is it just to not have to use the pad?
Anyone have any experience using the ear clamp method for headache relief?
personally I use the two clips on one ear. One on tragus and the other on the concha area. I feel this is just as good and have seen other resources use the two clip method. Don't know what your thoughts are on that? :)
I’ve been doing this too…what are the other resources you’ve seen that has done this?
@washwellness what about cutting down an adhesive tens unit pad to fit the concha of the ear for people struggling to get the clips to stick it that find the clips uncomfortable? The ear can be kind of waxy so cleaning the concha with an alcohol prep pad could be helpful, improves adhesiveness of the tens pad itself. What do you think? I'm thinking you could still use that on the concha and the pad on the back of the shoulder no?
I tape the clip onto my ear with medical tape. Works wonders keeping it in place.
Amazon has a 2 clip ear clip your can buy for
Can you tell me the brand pls?
therapeutic tVNS is between 0,5mA to 6mA max, and you shouldnt feel anything in that range. if you feel tingling that means youre way above 6mA which might lead to permanent vagus nerve damage.
@@youvilleatzebugs im not an expert nor a doctor. you should just use the smallest level where you dont even feel anything when doing the therapy. I use a TENS device and just level 1-2 out of 30 where I dont feel anything at all. also dont use more than 10 mins per day.
Question For the poster. How is using Tens for Vargus Nere stimulation different than tDSC Vargak nerve stimulation? They both apply electicity to the ear. Is one been shown to be more effective?
I read somewhere that tDSC uses much higher output, and therefore cannot be used for tVNS
I bought one of the double clips. I keep getting a "CLOSEWAIT" message on my tens unit. My unit is a Rehabilicare Pro Max tens unit. It accepts 2 wires. I took off one wire and connected the black and red lead to the double clip. If I put the double clip on my finger or my ear, I get the CLOSEWAIT message. If take the double clip off and let the pads touch each other, it seems to be pulsing and I don't get the CLOSEWAIT message. What am I doing wrong? Thank you.
I don’t feel anything on my ear no matter how high I turn up the tens machine. The machine works fine with the sticky pads but the earclip is not working for me! What’s going on
I already had a tens unit because of a car accident 5 years ago. I don't think it's helping but cold showers are. My brain fog, head pressure, tinnitus, left ear ache, overwhelming sleepiness, and fatigue seem to lessen when I take a morning cold shower. All of those symptoms increase when my bladder gets full and no doctor has yet to explain that to me. I've has an EEG, MRI of my brain, numerous blood tests and 13 months post covid positive test results I'm having the same old problems and I now have zero faith in doctors that they even want me to get well.
Doctors & pharma want us to be sick. That's where the money is. They don't care if we die either. I've given up on doctors and have been seeking the alternative route. It's a shame it's not covered by insurance and it's terribly expensive. Thanks for the cold shower tip. My left ear is humming so bad right now that it's practically unbearable. I'm glad I found this channel.
@@cyndimiller3569 UPDATE: I finally got put on time release ritalin. It's helping alot with fatigue, brain fog and memory problems.
I have issues when my bladder is full too. It’s likely central sensitization.
Please give me some advice. Took rave drugs in 1992, had a sudden pop in the centre of my head and was instantly chronically fatigued to date. I've spent £1000's on tests and self IV's for this and that. Had FMT at £5000. Had brain scans etc, nothing. OAT tests, neurotransmitter/ thyroid tests, all clear. I'm left with nervous system damage and ptsd? Mentally, I'm good. It's the fatigue and brain memories and fog. Maybe got for an Fmri test? Thanks. Waiting for my new tens machine to turn up. Fingers crossed
Maybe try a brain retraining program like DNRS?
@@justinjones2634 Thank you very much. I'll try it this morning
Heya I have a question. My eyelid on the left side flutters when I'm using the tens? Is that normal?
Wondering the same
Hello, I in the last few months had a bad case of Covid and Covid pneumonia and have a lot of gut issues and also mild dysmotility in my esophagus. I believe it has to do with vagus nerve, my doctors say no and don’t give me many answers. I am going to order the tens and ear clips from your website to try to stimulate my vagus nerve to see if this helps. Is there anything else on your site that you would recommend for the gut issues?
Probiotics
"Your gut plus" was a probiotic used in some post covid studies out of the UK. It contains some bacteria which may positively impact vagus such va rhamnosus gg. Talk to your doctor and see if it's right for you.
Vagus seems to be a big deal with long covid. See the forums. Eg people using the Sensate. Stasis breathing etc.
Does the dysmotility cause mental distress? I have Killian-Jamieson diverticulum (15 yrs) has caused a lot of stress and now I have RA. Doctors have no answers, just medication.
Hello were sale
Time stamps?
Who else came to this video for postural orthostatic takicardia syndrome?
Can I apply magnesium essential oil on my Vagus nerve in my neck?
I’ve been using essential oils
Try CBD, glutathione lotion and probiotic creams
where are these clips? dont see them on your site
You have to use the clips they sell and modify them. Watch the full video for the explanation.
So it won’t work unless you take Acetylcholine? Wish u touched on this more-It’s $95 on Amazon
1 - achetylcholine support could help if it DOESN'T work
2 - don't buy supplements on Amazon!! It shouldn't even be sold there anyway, it's physician-grade. It's like $50 in my store....I don't know if we have it listed online but shopwashwellnesscenter.com
or just eat more eggs, it's in eggs
@@ghost-nq6px Yikes, eating eggs will cause a host of other health problems
@@brendanmckenzie2042 you can also try organic soybeans or fatty fish (mackerel, sardines, anchovies and the likes)
@@brendanmckenzie2042 you are greatly misinformed....eggs are a superfood. Quit listening to bunk science.
