Vagus Nerve Toning for Endo and Co-conditions With Stefan Chmelik


Listen Later

In today’s episode, I’m interviewing Stefan Chmelik, inventor of Sensate, Integrated Healthcare Physician, author, teacher and founder of the New Medicine Group in Harley Street, London.

In this episode, Stefan and I are talking about the vagus nerve and the nervous system, and how together, they work to support our health - and how when they’re not working properly, they can impact or even trigger certain conditions.

In today’s episode we discuss -

  • What is the vagus nerve and what is its role in the body? 
  • How does the vagus nerve regulate our stress response? 
  • Can the vagus nerve become damaged or impaired and what effect does this have on the body?
  • What is heart rate variability and how can we use this to understand our vagus nerve health? 
  • How can we improve the health of our vagus nerve and can Sensate aid with this?
  • Can Sensate improve symptoms of endo/associated conditions such as accelerated heart rate, palpitations, gut health problems, anxiety and chronic pain? 
  • What would be the most effective way to use Sensate for these issues? 
  • Not only is Stefan a leader in integrated health care and vagal toning, but he’s also just the most compassionate, thoughtful and loveliest man to talk to, and I really enjoyed his conversation! If you’re interested in actually working with Stefan at his clinic or with his team, I’ve also just dropped the link to his Harley Street practice in the show notes.
