Vagus Nerve: Ribcage Massage for Stress Relief
ฝัง

- In this video, JIll shows two techniques to stimulate vagus nerve innervations in the lungs, diaphragm and heart. Combining breathing strategies with position and pressure, invites the relaxation response. The first technique involves lying on your side with the Coregeous Ball along the side ribs. The upper hand creates pressure as you concentrate focus on your breath. The second technique is face down with the Coregeous Ball directly on the sternum, stimulating the vagus nerve via the heart space by directing pressure into the sensors at the top of the heart called baroreceptors. Try these techniques for 10 to 20 minutes to fully release the day.

These vagus nerve exercise videos are incredible thank you. I’m using vagal toning as part of a strategy to recover from a debilitating long-term illness that put me in a wheelchair. Can I also compliment your videos for having no distracting music and no irritating sound effects… Just you talking and straight to the point. Absolutely love it! Wish more TH-cam videos were like this.
agreed!
Amazing job for humanity sisters
Thank you so much for this. And all your other videos. They really work.
You are a blessing! Thank you for all your information! 🌹
I am very grateful for this exercise. It helped me sooooo much:))))) I appreciate greatly the whole series of your exercises for a vagus nerve. Much love to you.
Thank you for these much needed (vague nerve) exercises! I intend to practice these & reap the benefits hopefully. :)
I got my ball for one of my birthday gifts and am starting this exercise tonight. I’ve been learning about vagal tone and trying to reset my nervous system. Thank you for sharing this information! 🫶🏼
Wow ! So well explained , !, It feels really good just watching and listening and allowing my body to listen too.. its nearing midnight here in India and I would like to get a ball like this tomorrow . and practice and feel the effects.. ... thank you . 🙏
I was searching for a video that'd help me with my nerve pain in my lower ribs (oof it bad tonight) and oh my lord this worked like a charm! All I had was a firm pillow but it worked anyway 🙌🏻 my torso feels so relaxed
thank u!!!
thank you!
I kind of did that Yesterday without knowing. Felt awesome, like l had bubbles in my head and face
Thank u both. If u can say what is releasing the Vagus and what is activating and how can i tell which is needed. u make r a great team! The explanations r deep-going. I didnot get the "attempt to cough".
What kind of ball? Can you please list the items needed for these exersizes? I don’t know the size of that ball.
Can anything be used instead of the ball?
I was naturally having to do this type of breath work last night due to inner muscle spasms during the night. Then your video was in my suggested videos this morning. I'm going to do these exercises with a small, round pillow I have. Thank you!
So happy to hear we could assist you in self regulation, such an empowering natural gift. Please let us know how it went Gygax Girl!
woah yeah
This looks good! Where can I get the ball from please? 🙂
Hi Karen, This is the inflatable Coregeous ball, we offer it in both iris and graphite. You can find these options as well as our full line of Massage Balls here: www.tuneupfitness.com/shop/self-massage-therapy-balls
Let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist you! Best, Team TUF
Thank you very much for these videos. Like some other people here, I’d like to know about a substitute for this type of ball. Could it be a little smaller? I have a smaller one at home.
You can use a pillow or thick blanket! 👍
Are we supposed to hold the tensing up / cough reflex while we breath out or is it a momentary hold?
i need a tip. i am getting a severe cramp underneath my mid right rib. thanks. ouch
What kind of ball is that? I would like to purchase one
Hi Tricia, I'm using the Coregeous Ball by Tune Up Fitness www.tuneupfitness.com/coregeous-ball
Hello, would you be able to tell me why when I do this exercice I have a feeling of vagal hypotension 😢..
Thank you
😍
It's the relaxation response that affects the vagus nerve. MUCH easier ways to do this: meditation is #1, yoga breathing, foot massage. All these experts, lol.
Mam does this help for gut and ibs
This can be helpful as it relaxes your nervous system and also helps the diaphragm to move better. Frequently in IBS, the bloating can prevent the diaphragm and the breath muscles from moving through their full range of motion. Their motion helps move digestive matter along the digestive tract.
It would be more applicable and practical if you could show us some exercises without the props ...coz not all of us have this ball and the block.
Thankyou.
You can use a pillow to replace your Coregeous Ball for these moves. We 100% agree that we want everyone to be able to use the Roll Model Method with our without our products. Stay tuned and we'll post more in the future.
@@TuneUpFitness thankyou....much appreciated as it makes everything so much more easier n comfortable to execute.
What’s the ball called?
HI Anita, The ball we're using is our Coregeous Ball which features a slightly grippy material which helps with fascial sheer. You can learn more about it here: tuneup.fit/xzKQhm
Can you do this without a ball, like maybe a pillow if that’s all you have ?
Absolutely! A pillow, a rolled up towel - we love creative ways to make our own props!
how do you act as though you will cough??
Great question, try an alternate set of cues: inhale, hold your breath, don't let air escape-but act as though you were going to blow out candles on a cake without letting air out AND without straining to do this action.
What do I do if I don’t have the props (the ball, the cube
Can you suggest substitutes
I can’t afford to buy such things right now
@Monica Cook thank you!
We replied above as well, but you can always use a pillow or rolled up towel to replace a Corgeous Ball
I'm using a 20 lb slam ball. Not a med ball but a slam ball. Look it up on Amazon
What could I use if I don't have the exercise ball to put under my ribcage?
I had sleep apnea 2 years ago, treated it with pills from my doctor. 2 weeks ago I got it again... And it wont go away. I dont know if in daytime i breath well but at night when I begin to "dream" I spasm and wake up dizzy because I dont breathe... Can someone give me advice? I am not afraid to die but I dont want to die while sleeping...
Take vitamin b12, maybe you avoid too much caffeine. Meditation and prayers will help. Prayers help me healed. You’re not alone. Take care.
@@GlendaRammitsu prayer ? Just tell her to toss a coin and call heads or tails
Prayers are no more helpful than a coin toss geez
I try to focus on the video.
and I fucking can't.
all I can do is sob my soul out.
people always think
I'm much-much older than I am.
and it's so-so very-very humiliating.
it fills me with overwhelming
grief and rage and shame.
how will I ever attract a mate,
if the opposite sex isn't attracted to me?
I literally die inside.
part of me dies:
from the powerlessness and the shame...
