Can definitely tell a difference in anxiety levels
on February 9, 2025
Posted by: Michael T.
Originally purchased this to see if it may help with sleep. While it hasn't helped with sleep as much as I would like yet. I have noticed a definite difference in lowering anxiety. Along with clear or thinking, when I don't get as much sleep as I'd like. Customer service is second to none. I've spoken with a few different people from the company, and they all have been fantastic.

I was skeptical and ready to return
on February 9, 2025
Posted by: Annie W.
I was using it for a month and wasn't feeling any different and was ready to return it. Then I realized I actually wasn't using it in the right place - the instruction booklet illustration shows a different placement more centered on the neck than it should have been.
I saw a different diagram on some other site and used the Truvaga plus closer to the corner of my jawline where the yellow/orange nerve was shown on the booklet.
I was having terrible anxiety attacks at night that would wake me in a mild panic and the Truvaga slowly began to help calm the anxiety. I got the device as a Hail Mary to treat CPTSD, of which manifests somatically in the form of muscle tension, nausea, low to zero appetite, insomnia, body armoring and brain fog. Life has been immeasurably difficult and I was at wits end.
I also have tachycardia - a resting heart rate between 100-110 even when lying down. I used the Truvaga after about 30 minute of not seeing my BPM come down and immediately I saw it go down from 107 to 87 and stayed stable under 95. Waited another hour and treated again before bedtime and it dropped further from 90 to 73.
So far, after a month of consistent use, Truvaga plus has been taken the edge off my symptoms and I feel healthier and better able to manage daily stress. It's been a great augment to my therapy and pain management protocols.

Instant Calm
on February 8, 2025
Posted by: Nathan R.
This is my first vagus nerve stimulator, and I find it helps me tremendously to relax in the evening before sleep. I do each side of my neck for 2 minutes. I'm using distilled water with pharmaceutical grade sodium chloride instead of the conductive spray and it works well. I always run it at level 10. I wish the app was not needed, or at least had dark mode, since I use it in the evening when I don't want to see any bright light. I put a red sticker over the power light to block the green/blue color that it emits. The battery life is great. Overall it is a wonderful device!

Unbelievable, it works
on January 26, 2025
Posted by: Leah T.
It's unbelievable to me, but this thing really works. I admit I can't tell the difference between all of the different settings. Each one (e. g. Stress) leaves me immediately relaxed. That said, it doesn't appear to work for everyone or it might take multiple uses for some people. My partner tried it and he couldn't tell a difference, whereas, I immediately turn into jelly; even from the very first use.

Hi, I was recommended by
on January 26, 2025
Posted by: Henryk K.
Hi, I was recommended by Chris Wood (or his associate). I'm a little on the fence about it's value. I do it at night and sometimes during the day. The benefit is not that noticeable, but it does seem to take "the edge" off a little. I use to take a tiny broken pill piece of Right Aids Sleep Aid to fall asleep and I don't anymore. And when my work day gets really stressed . . . well think of it like a rough surface and a Truvaga session smooths it out just a little (like sand paper would). Enough to allow me to continue working (although I'm trying to retire).
I have trouble placing it just right, or maybe not enough of the spray. I'm getting low on the spray, so how do I get more, or can I make some?
Thanks. Henryk

It's okay

I'm not sure what I think of the product yet. I have been using it for sometime now but haven't seen an improvement in my wellness. I'll continue to use it but can't say I would recommend it to anyone just yet.
