CoolHed Day 2 at the Addictions Conference 🔥❄️
Better than sticking your head in icy 🥶 water? Absolutely.
Targeted head + neck cooling with CoolHed delivers precise vagus nerve stimulation for deeper relaxation, without the mess or full-body shock.
In the recovery and rehabilitation space, this is a game-changer for mental health and addiction support.
Why it matters (backed by robust evidence):
• Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) activates the parasympathetic “rest-and-digest” system, reducing stress, anxiety, and inflammation while enhancing mood and resilience.
• FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression; clinical trials show significant reductions in depressive and anxiety symptoms (e.g., 74% improvement in one postpartum depression study).
• Promising for addiction: Non-invasive VNS helps ease opioid withdrawal symptoms, cravings, and supports relapse prevention in emerging research.
• Also aids PTSD, anxiety, and overall nervous system regulation — essential tools in recovery.
No ice bath required. Just portable, effective nervous system reset for focus, calm, and long-term healing. Who else is prioritising vagal tone in their recovery journey?
