Truvaga: The Secret to Reduce Stress and Unlock Unshakable Calm

If you’re struggling with chronic stress, anxiety, brain fog, or poor sleep, you’ve likely tried countless solutions. What if the key to finding balance wasn’t just in your mind, but in a specific, accessible nerve in your body? At Holland Health, we’re excited to introduce Truvaga Vagus Nerve Therapy—a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared device designed to help you recalibrate your nervous system in just minutes a day.

What is truvaga and how does it work?

Truvaga is a handheld device that delivers gentle, targeted electrical stimulation to the vagus nerve. As the longest cranial nerve in the body, the vagus nerve is your nervous system’s superhighway, connecting your brain to your heart, lungs, gut, and other major organs. It’s the command center for your “rest-and-digest” mode, counteracting the “fight-or-flight” stress response.

While we’ve previously discussed natural vagus nerve toning exercises, Truvaga offers a direct, precise, and powerful method to stimulate this critical nerve. Think of it as high-intensity training for your nervous system, complementing the foundational yoga of breathing exercises.

Each session lasts just two minutes. For optimal results, we recommend one session in the morning to set a calm tone for the day and another before bed to promote restorative sleep.

The science of calm: What Research Says

Truvaga’s technology is backed by robust clinical research, demonstrating its ability to directly improve markers of well-being. Studies have shown that transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS), the technology behind Truvaga, can lead to significant benefits:

• Improved Stress Resilience & Mood: Research published in Nature found that tVNS can enhance the body’s adaptive stress response and improve overall mood and focus (Scientific Reports, 2024).
• Increased Heart Rate Variability (HRV): HRV is a key indicator of nervous system health. A higher HRV signifies better stress resilience. A 2016 study confirmed that tVNS effectively increases HRV, a cornerstone of physiological balance (Neurogastroenterol Motil. 2017).
• Enhanced Cognitive Function: Studies indicate potential benefits for memory and cognitive function, suggesting tVNS can help clear brain fog and improve mental clarity (Journal of Affective Disorders, 2023).
• Support for Overall Quality of Life: Clinical trials have reported that users experience a marked improvement in their overall quality of life, citing reduced feelings of stress and greater emotional balance (American Journal of Managed Care, 2018).

Is Truvaga Safe? What To Expect

Truvaga is a safe and well-tolerated, non-drug therapy. It’s designed for at-home use with guidance from our clinic. Most side effects, if experienced at all, are mild and temporary, occurring only during use and resolving quickly afterward. These may include minor application site discomfort, muscle twitching, or a mild, temporary headache.

Important Note: Truvaga is contraindicated for anyone with an active implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker, hearing aid implant, or other implanted electronic device. Our thorough screening process ensures it is a safe option for you.

Your Path to a More Balanced Nervous System Starts Here

While general wellness practices are beneficial, targeted intervention can make all the difference. Truvaga represents a significant advancement in our ability to directly support the nervous system, offering a solution for those who haven’t found full relief from lifestyle changes alone.

If you’re ready to move beyond managing symptoms and start addressing the root cause of your stress and fatigue, this therapy could be your next step.
