July 31st, 2008 by admin
Not all depression treatments have to be prescription drugs or daily all natural supplements. You can consider another popular treatment, that is one of the more current treatments for depression. Vagus nerve stimulation is like a pacemaker for your brain. Because he vagal nerve connects your brain stem to your upper body, it relays information to and from your central nervous system. Vagus nerve stimulation changes the norepinephrine and sertonin levels in the brain- both of which are neurotransmitters that are associated with a person’s mood. Vagus nerve stimulation has prove a successful treatment for many people in the studies, but not everyone is a good candidate for the treatment. You should consult your health care provider as well as a professional neurologist, and maybe a mental health care provider to find out more information about vagus nerve stimulation.
