My neck was damaged by a chiropractor about 40 years ago giving me a variety of psychological as well as physical symptoms. I've only used this exercise for four days but I'm already experiencing a lot of positive effects including lifting my mood and keeping me centred and having less anxiety and feelings of overwhelm I'm so very grateful to you for posting this. Literally life changing! God bless you!
David, I believe the same thing happened to me, I'd like to discuss this further with you, I am having strange symptoms but couldn't find anyone to discuss this with.
I’ve got badly damaged cervical vertebrae’s from a whiplash injury 40 years ago. Right side of my neck has seized up I can’t lie on my right side it brings on vertigo and nausea. Nothing has helped going to a chiropractor made it worse, physio doesn’t help. I can’t take strong painkillers so I constantly have a headache, leading to vertigo and nausea, blurry vision. I’m 82 already! My doctor more or less has said I’ll just have to live with it.😢 Wow! I did that exercise once and can’t believe the lifting of the pressure in my head, increased blood flow, even my eyes feel clearer. I’ll certainly keep on doing that movement. Also the tongue exercise you explained in one of your other videos. Thank you so much for your help, you’ve given me hope that I can do something simple to help myself.👍😊
So happpy for you! Don't think about emotions. It is overdone and I have studied it all for 30+ years. I changed all my own pain just by getting me structural aligned! Being 63 I have no pains anymore...
You are a REAL healer. And how wonderful that you were able to recognize your gift and pursue it with this level of dedication and excellence. And you're so charming! Thank you.
This is unbelievable! I have chronic fatigue syndrome and I got some immediate relief. I belief CFS is related to blood supply to the brain and poor lymphatic drainage
I know this is an older video. Not sure if you still check comments...but this has helped me so much. Ive been practicing your vagus/lymph node neck releases. Wow. ❤
DOC..... you are a wonderful teacher! I absolutely love learning about my beautiful body and how we ourselves can keep it in good working order!!! I'm 76 years young and been following you awhile now.Youve helped me get through SOME Stuff!!!! Doctors don't HELP anybody like you!!!! I'm very grateful for your teaching and will help others with what you are teaching me!!!❤😂🎉
Test your vagus nerve: with a mirror in hand, open mouth and hum, looking at your uvula (the tissue hanging between your tonsils). It should vibrate without pulling to one side. If it pulls to the side while hum vibrating, you very likely have a pinched vagus nerve.
You are my new favorite doc, thank you for all this powerful info!! Most People have no idea how important the vagus nerve is for anxiety relief and regulating the nervous system.
well this is interesting, my breathing became deeper but in a natural way, I have had the year from hell and am trying to heal with a very limited income so any free info is a total gosdend. thank you
perfect routine, thank you so much. The Vagus controls so much of our body. After just following this routine today, I feel oxygenated, the movments feel really good as well. If you like doing something, you will repeat it!
Fantastic info! Can't get enough clear, useful anatomy teaching like this. Many thanks! Pressure behind eyes, lessened greatly, vision cleared some (I'm 61)... got lots of needed 'pops' releasing pressure in neck etc, relief in neck & more. Can think more clearly, less frustrating brain fog. Just feel better in general. Had forgotten the Mulligan move years ago. Minutes later, got increased neck ROM, relief in some attachments & muscles of shoulder girdle, delts, upper abs/diaphragm area, etc. Isometrics are key! Very happy 😄 Also pterygoid stretch and the 'turkey head' move for the planar/gliding joint in neck (atlantooccipital?) added to my benefits. Thank you for all you do 😊
Wonderful, I felt relieve right away and started yawning after doing the exercise for the 3rd time. My eyes got moistened as well, which for me is a sign of relaxation. Thank you so much 🙏
I just got a chill down my spine and sensations through my brain. I feel like my breathing feels clearer through my nasal passage ways. Wow, this definitely helps the body instantly!!! Thank you so much for your teachings!!!!
thank you so much for posting this, i had a a cranial impact with a 6 inch post in a skiing accident 45 yrs ago. now much later on in life and with somewhat daily discomfort , this has helped me tremendously. im so very grateful for your video thanks again. 😊🙏
So … I’m here from a different tangent. Acute on Chronic systemic inflammation secondary to Acute on Chronic PTSD (First Responder) … I’m finding these practices VERY helpful ❤
I REALLY felt that serge! Did it exactly as you said, not too forceful. I'm definitely going to do this everyday but starting out... while sitting down until I get used to it and make progress in improvement. Made my brain feel like it used to after a good workout and several minutes after, that relaxed feeling you mentioned, like when you want to sit down and relax into the blood flow benefits you get when you feel that gentle relaxing pulse in your skull after your workout is over. I'm so impressed, thank you.
As usual, americans are excellents in all this kind of staff. Practical & pragmaticals, i love it. In the francophone world, nobody do this. Thank you dr Perry
I''ve had lots of neck issues for years from various causes incl whiplash & cycling & head injuries, & neck is "too straight" - so I've been cautious to do much by myself, Cranial Sacral helps, but recently a goiter CT scan showed C4&5 "degenerating".. Also been learning how crucial is the Vegus Nerve, and been told back area of head is "locked up" , so I paid attention to this video ~ & did the technique, cautiously & gently ~ clear instructions, thank you .. felt it most in upper mid back, which is usually tight. And a lot of odd 'popping' sensations in left shoulder as releasing ~ & a yawn!!! Yayy!! Also afterwards a noticeable but mild aching both sides of neck. I didn't particularly enjoy it as another commenter did, but it is clearly effective and something that feels important to do. And I will look up your course. Many thanks
Thank you! I felt a small pop and my neck popped again after raising up. That felt great. A big problem area for me. So grateful for your stretches, etc and the clear instructions on how to do them. You have given me so much relief that I can do along with PT and CST. God bless you!
Oh my…my breathing relaxed…..I can breathe more easily in/out my nose- I have followed you on IG for some time….I have anxiety and recently been using vagus nerve exercises to bring calmness….this is awesome-Thank you for your posts💚
Thank you so much, I followed your instructions, my eyesight is clearer, stronger, quite amazing. I feel quite relaxed also. Very indebted to you, thank you again. WOW.
So, so helpful. I got dizzy just before you said it was a possibility that could happen! Huge ROM in my neck and feel a little loopy. Thank you for sharing, Doc!
Ok Feb. 16 2023.. when I seen this for the first time.. It works.. I fill a tingling feeling down the left side of ma neck.. And I did this.. O God what a blessing.. I do this all day every day.. Thank you.. Thank you..👍👍👌👌
Thank you so much for sharing your skills and knowledge - you put it over so well - with humour as well - a brilliant educator and teacher - thank you again 🤗
This is just what I needed! Been doing a bunch of MLD but I can't seem to get the whole waterwheel area going and it's holding up the hold damn river. I think this was the key, thank you!
Whoa thanks 🥰 have had so much crackling in the back of my head / neck/ brain since upper rear molar infection 2021. My chiro just said oh everyone has that with age, i knew it was bs. 🙏🖖
Have you ever heard about the styloid bone being in that area compressing nerves or vessels with different head movements? Some people have got this bone removed with success.
have intuited this method for years. so grateful for the validation. am believing it is also is the source of POTS. also bet uneven jaws/bite contribute. blessings.
Having a really stressful few months, woke up one morning with tightness and tingling all down my right side. Of course my mind thought the worst but as the months have gone on I’m realising this flares up when I’m feeling stressed out… always had a sensitive neck area, quite a long and relatively thin neck. Anyway. Just tried this and it helped A LOT! Thank you. The root cause is stress but this is helping so much, helps to deal with the stress too when my body isn’t betraying me physically 😅
Definitely noticed an improvement after doing this!!! Thank you! it felt like blood was actually going to my brain. I've had long COVID and POTS like symptoms for a while, I'm wondering if it's because of vagus nerve inflammation?
I love this vagus nerve maneuver! You're right, a little light headedness. But nothing dramatic. This will probably assist my sinuse drainage. Would it be a good idea to do a little drainage prior to this move, down to the clavicles? Thank you do much.
Holy smokes! Thank you so much. Hurt my neck 6 months ago and had whiplash and concussions before that. This almost instantly stopped the annoying clicking and popping I’ve been having in my neck. Are there any other videos I should check out?

That's really great to hear.
Post the chiro's name and general whereabouts so people can avoid their incompetence
@@BarberForCatholicTalkingHeads40 years ago he's probably dead !

Try Dr. Bradley's Emotion Code. You may have some trapped emotions that need to be released. Releasing trapped emotions relieves pain.
So happpy for you! Don't think about emotions. It is overdone and I have studied it all for 30+ years. I changed all my own pain just by getting me structural aligned! Being 63 I have no pains anymore...
The most useful and practical advice on Vagus Nerve on the internet...
Truly grateful for the kind words. I can tell you it's done wonders for me personally
Technique begins at about 3:20
Thanks
You are a REAL healer. And how wonderful that you were able to recognize your gift and pursue it with this level of dedication and excellence. And you're so charming! Thank you.
Thank you
Amazing! My vision cleared considerably and I can feel my eyes being filled with oxygen.
That's a win right there!
I love to hear when someone healthy is improving, it’s encouraging to me. Thanks!
This is unbelievable! I have chronic fatigue syndrome and I got some immediate relief. I belief CFS is related to blood supply to the brain and poor lymphatic drainage
Excellent well done. And yes you are correct
I know this is an older video. Not sure if you still check comments...but this has helped me so much. Ive been practicing your vagus/lymph node neck releases. Wow. ❤
I'm so glad! Thank you for sharing your experience.
Wow, doc! One round and my sinuses are draining big time! Awesome!!
Me too!
Oh yes this is great for opening up the posterior sinuses which influence is the anterior sinuses
My head has sat on my neck rather crooked for years. This … stretch is helping me to get my head on straight, literally. Thank you 🙏
Fantastic
😂love your description of getting your head on straight....me too lol
Awesome!
My sister just shared this video with me. Great way to start my day. So happy to have our paths cross.
100% great start to the day
I have a damaged vagus nerve from a situation where I almost drown. This helped so much, I felt everything open up. every little bit helps!
That's fantastic wonderful to hear so glad it helped
You should most definitely buy the book by genius therapist Stanley Rosenberg on vagal nerve rehabilitation
DOC..... you are a wonderful teacher! I absolutely love learning about my beautiful body and how we ourselves can keep it in good working order!!! I'm 76 years young and been following you awhile now.Youve helped me get through SOME Stuff!!!! Doctors don't HELP anybody like you!!!! I'm very grateful for your teaching and will help others with what you are teaching me!!!❤😂🎉
Wow, thank you! I am truly grateful and honored
Test your vagus nerve: with a mirror in hand, open mouth and hum, looking at your uvula (the tissue hanging between your tonsils). It should vibrate without pulling to one side. If it pulls to the side while hum vibrating, you very likely have a pinched vagus nerve.
Absolutely. Thank you for your comment
I just have one concern with this comment . Isn't Humming done with pursed lips ? HMMMMmmm ;) lol
@@kman7169 Sometimes true, kman, but I prefer pursed money!
Yes; genius Stanley Rosenbergs test
And if you get an itch to gamble until 4am, that's your Vegas nerve 😉
You are my new favorite doc, thank you for all this powerful info!! Most People have no idea how important the vagus nerve is for anxiety relief and regulating the nervous system.
Thank you so much for those kind words I am grateful. I'm going to be posting a lot more content on TH-cam again
well this is interesting, my breathing became deeper but in a natural way, I have had the year from hell and am trying to heal with a very limited income so any free info is a total gosdend. thank you

Are you kidding me?! Oh my, the annoying ratcheting in my neck is gone! I cannot thank you enough. 🙏🏻
Welcome good job

Wonderful, I felt relieve right away and started yawning after doing the exercise for the 3rd time. My eyes got moistened as well, which for me is a sign of relaxation. Thank you so much 🙏
That's fantastic. Yes yawning happens when you stimulate the vagus nerve well done
This made me start drooling immediately. It's amazing how little things can jist relax the whole body.
The body is absolutely spectacular. I agree with you
This worked incredibly well to relax my stiff neck
BOOM! Well done
The Vegas nerve the highway going my way. So under maintained yet so vitally important. Thank you for this consultation.
Very welcome thank you for watching

Well done so glad it was helpful for you
Everything you share is golden! I will use this daily. Thank you!
You are so welcome! Thank you

Go easy

Yes it is called Eagle's Syndrome
Thank you!

Amazing. Got goosebumps....
Good job
Thank you!! Is this ok to do for people with connective tissue disorders (hyper mobility and Cervical instability)?
Good question.
No that already moves too much
This is fantastic, but would be helpful if you did it on a client as well as yourself…but thank you
👍
Since this is dated, is the Vagus Nerve Mojo available as a video (2023)? Thanks.
No only available to those who attend the Vagus Nerve Mojo course
Lots of snapping/cracking at end of this….Can’t feel too much pressure on chin hand….wondering if I’m lifting enough 💚
Does not take a lot of pressure
That was interesting. 🎯
👍
Thank you so much🌻
