What does Nuropod do
With Nuropod you can:
- Recover and activate your self-repair mechanisms by countering dysregulation in the nervous system.
- Build up your stress resilience, recover faster from stressful events and help prevent mood swings.
- Counter post-viral symptoms, like fatigue or brain fog.
- Maintain optimal HRV, recovery and reduce cardiovascular health risks.
- Relax and stabilize your mental state to help you fall asleep faster, achieve high-quality sleep, wake up with more energy and fewer negative thoughts.
- Improve digestive function by promoting healthy communication through the gut-brain axis.
- Reduce inflammation, pain and discomfort linked to your nervous system.
- Strengthen cognitive performance & focus to counteract the effects of aging.
How does Nuropod achieve all of this?
Vagus Nerve science is well established and Nuropod is a wearable device that is scientifically proven to modulate the vagus nerve via precise electrical impulses that are sent through the skin to a branch of the nerve on the outer ear that projects to the brain. Modern science has discovered that many persistent mental & physical symptoms are linked to a chronically dysregulated nervous system. The nervous system and one of its largest nerves - the vagus nerve - controls critical bodily functions, from breathing, heart rate, digestion to energy management, calmness and mood. When the vagus nerve is not functioning properly, symptoms can surface that relate to these processes (e.g. chronic tiredness or chronic stress). By signaling the nervous system in a natural way through modulating the activity of the vagus nerve, Nuropod helps to bring the body find back to its healthy state and manatin it in balance.
In this way Nuropod can support mental and physical health, helping alleviate symptoms arising from dysregulation in the nervous system.
Nuropod exerts its effects through various mechanisms:
- It triggers the “rest and digest” response, promoting relaxation, lowering heart rate and improving digestion.
- Reduces inflammation markers leading linked to pain & overactive immune response
- Decreases oxidative stress markers linked to chronic diseases and ageing.
- Increases neuroplasticity, rewiring the brain for better mood, better motor & cognitive learning.
Nuropod has been validated in 50+ completed scientific trials, third party tested and certified to the highest standard of devices that send signals to the vagus nerve. Nuropod was developed by Parasym, a world leading neurotechnology company, and uses Parasym’s proprietary Auricular Vagal Neuromodulation Therapy (AVNT)™ which has been studied in partnership with leading scientific research institutions including Harvard and UCLA.
Nuropod is the most scientifically validated device for targeting the vagus nerve via the ear available without prescription. It is the most studied neuromodulation system of this kind, widely considered as the gold standard by doctors and researchers.
Symptoms studied
Parasym’s AVNT technology has been scientifically studied in 50+ completed studies across a broad spectrum of populations and health and performance applications.
A focus of scientific studies has been on dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system. These symptoms have been linked to autonomic nervous system imbalance and vagus nerve impairment:
- Anxious states and stress related symptoms
- Chronic tiredness, fatigue, brain fog, burnout
- Digestive issues, irritable gut, reflux, overactive bowel, constipation, bloating
- Sleep problems
- Negative thoughts
- Inflammatory symptoms
- Pain, headaches
- Memory & attention problems
- Postural heart rate abnormalities or fainting
- Post-Viral Symptoms
- Widespread body pain
Our latest research data also suggests Nuropod improves learning, short-term memory and cognition.
Nuropod has been shown to promote relaxation, mood, sleep, healthy digestion, and increase HRV. Improved stress management alleviates symptoms of stress, burnout, and adrenal fatigue.
Parasym research is also investigating the impact of Auricular Vagal Neuromodulation Therapy on athletic performance, muscle recovery, weight management problems, substance dependency and more.
If you’re not sure if Nuropod is for you, consult with your health professional or contact support.
Who Is Nuropod For?
Nuropod is for adults looking to improve their health and performance.
Nuropod is not suitable for the following users:
- Users who have undergone surgery to cut the vagus nerve (cervical vagotomy);
- Users diagnosed with severe low resting heart rate;
- Users with a permanent (that cannot be removed before using Nuropod) implanted metallic or electronic device or jewelry at close proximity to the ear tragus;
- Pregnant women.
Below are listed situations that are also contraindications unless the user receives a different health opinion on the device use by their health professional and is under the supervision of a health professional while using the device. If you fall under one of these categories, your health professional might advise whether, in your specific case, the device is safe to use, potentially following certain precautions or under specific supervision:
- Users with any active implanted device (including electronic and/or wearable devices) e.g. cochlear implant, cerebral shunts, invasive vagus nerve stimulators, pacemakers or non-active but potentially interacting with the nervous system (e.g. metal implants);
- Users with known severe coronary disease or recent heart attack (within 5 years);
- Children users
- Pregnant women have not been evaluated in scientific studies.
- Both children users and users with pacemakers have been enrolled in scientific studies with Parasym technology, and no device related adverse events or interferences have been observed so far in the scientific setting.

Science & Scientific Evidence
Nuropod has partnered with 100+ research institutions, including UCLA and Harvard, to conduct scientific studies to validate the safety and health benefits of Nuropod.
Our research is founded on these principles:
- Parasym’s studies are led by independent university experts, with no financial ties to us, unless explicitly mentioned.
- Our independent research ensures unbiased and genuine results.
- Independent transparency: All our study findings (positive or otherwise) are published and openly accessible to everyone.
- We collaborate with distinguished physicians and scientists, ensuring the pinnacle of research quality.
- A large part of our scientific evidence comes from Randomised Placebo-controlled Scientific Studies, which are considered the highest standard of evidence.
Getting started with Nuropod
How to use Nuropod in a few steps:
- Apply a small amount of moisture to the tragus.
- Place the earpiece on your left ear with the electrodes correctly on your left tragus (protruding part of your ear)
- Turn on your Nuropod
- Slowly increase energy level until you feel a light tingling sensation on your tragus.
- Nuropod is now active and delivering the signals to your parasympathetic nervous system.
- Notice the sensations of calmness, relaxation, decreased stress, improved mood and increased energy.
- Use Nuropod for sessions of 15-60 minutes and incorporate into your daily ritual.
Why trust Nuropod?
Gold standard in scientific research
- Nuropod By Parasym is a product of over $10M deployed in scientific research, 100+ partner research organisations including Harvard, UCLA, 50+ completed scientific trials evaluating Nuropod and publications in leading journals covering our exciting and scientifically significant results.
- This is why Nuropod is the world leading non-invasive vagal neuromodulation system used in scientific study, recommended by doctors and now widely adopted.
Developed in London, England, Scientifically Studied in the United States
- Nuropod has been independently scientifically studied in the United States by the worlds most elite scientific institutions like Harvard, UCLA, and the University of Pennsylvania, with scientific data published in some of the worlds most prestigious scientific journals like the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
Independently scientifically studied in U.S.A, third party evaluated and certified
- Exposing your nervous system and brain to untested electrical currents can put you at risk of a permanent damage to the brainstem and vagal nerve fibres, worsening symptoms. Never use or suggest using electrical current devices on your nervous system that have not been designed for neuromodulation and scientifically studied to evaluate their effects on the body.
- Ensuring safety and efficacy requires extensive scientific studies that cost millions of dollars. This is why few Neuromodulation devices have supporting scientific trials showing they are both safe and effective.
- Beware of websites claiming to deliver benefits from uncertified therapies that present online reviews instead of scientific evidence. Carefully verify if a device you’re evaluating is from a reputable company in a trusted jurisdiction and has conducted scientific studies in the United States to evaluate use in this population.
- When considering any health intervention, be sure to evaluate the status of certification, scientific evidence, warnings and seek advice of trusted health care professionals.
Proven target activity
- In addition to safety, it is crucial to consider efficacy.
- The fact that a device is delivering a safe electrical signal to the vagus nerve and brainstem is not enough.
- Safe and effective neuromodulation can be thought of like a symphony, where the piano is your vagus nerve and the pianist playing the notes is the device. The precise notes need to be played at the right time and for the right lengths of time to have the result of the symphony.
- Without scientific data, we cannot know if a device is 1) actually sending the right signals to the vagus nerve 2) not sending signals that result in unintended neural pathway activation or supression.
- Our patented technology (AVNT) has been developed over 10 years of R&D, evaluated in 50+ completed scientific studies with a total cost of over $10M.
Efficacy confirmed in Randomised Placebo Controlled Studies
- The placebo effect can be a strong influencer on benefits of numerous devices and interventions. Only randomised placebo controlled scientific studies can demonstrate whether a device benefit is independent of the placebo effect. Make sure to verify quality of evidence provided.
- Nuropod has demonstrated benefits independent of placebo effects in rigorous Randomised Placebo Controlled Studies.
Certifications & Safety
Nuropod is the most scientifically studied device of this kind and considered safe when used as intended. Most users encounter no issues and the most commonly reported issue with using Nuropod is a mild irritation on the skin where the electrodes are placed, however this is rare and typically resolves after ceasing use.
