Heal Your Vagus Nerve Online Course

The Healing Collective • March 28, 2023

Self-Paced Course Hosted by Dr. Jessie : Testing & Treatment Strategies to Heal Your Vagus Nerve!

Why is the Vagus Nerve so Important?

VAGUS NERVE DYSFUNCTION is linked to many issues from Autoimmune Disease to Sleep Dysregulation to Anxiety, Depression, Sleep Apnea, Digestive Problems, Chronic Inflammation, Dysautonomia and much much more. 


This highly influential nerve supplies nearly every part of the digestive system, regulates heart rate and blood pressure, is modulated by stress and emotional factors, and has the power to literally turn down inflammation in the body.


Arguably the most important nerve in the human system, it is easily dysregulated by factors such as infection, stress, or trauma. The good news is there are practical strategies you can learn to test and treat your Vagus Nerve so that you can get on the road to optimal function.


More than Just for Better Sleep

The Vagus Course was originally designed to support our many clients with Insomnia, and because the Vagus Nerve supports so much more than just sleep, people with all sorts of conditions have benefitted from the course content.


We also add new information as the course progresses due to the interactive component of the Support Group.
