Can you do it? . The science behind it👇🏼 . Swallowing involves coordinated activity between several cranial nerves, with the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) playing a central role in the process. . The vagus nerve plays an important role in controlling the muscles of the pharynx and larynx, and regulating reflexes such as coughing and swallowing. . 👉🏼 Why swallowing 3 times in a row is a vagus nerve function test: . 💥Motor function check: The vagus nerve innervates the muscles that control voluntary and reflexive swallowing. If there’s difficulty initiating or completing three consecutive swallows, it may indicate vagal dysfunction or weakness. . 💥 Coordination and tone: Swallowing three times smoothly tests the nerve’s ability to maintain coordination and muscle tone over repeated actions. A dysfunctional vagus nerve might result in delayed, weak, or effortful swallows, or even choking or coughing during the process. . 👉🏼Importance of the test: . 💥 Non-invasive functional screen: It’s a quick and simple way to screen vagus nerve integrity without medical equipment. . 💥Can reveal subtle nervous system issues: Especially helpful for early detection of dysautonomia, brainstem dysfunction, or nerve injury. . 💥Relates to other vagal functions: Since the vagus also regulates heart rate, digestion, and vocalization, swallowing issues might reflect broader autonomic dysregulation. . NOTE: this is a low-barrier clinical check often used alongside other signs (e.g. gag reflex, voice quality, heart rate variability) for a holistic view of vagus nerve health. . 💬 Comment ‘Vagus’ if you are looking for ways to strengthen and improve your vagus nerve health. . 🚫 This is not medical advice.

You have NO idea how this nerve controls your health… This is the vagus nerve — the master switch of your nervous system. One nerve that tells your body when to panic… and when to heal. When the vagus nerve is working right, it can: • Calm anxiety in minutes • Slow your heart rate • Deepen your breathing • Turn digestion back ON • Reduce inflammation & pain • Improve sleep and recovery • Release jaw, neck, and TMJ tension • Help your body feel safe again When it’s blocked or overstimulated? Your body stays stuck in fight-or-flight — even when nothing is wrong. That’s why people feel: ❌ anxious for no reason ❌ tight jaw & neck ❌ gut issues ❌ shallow breathing ❌ poor sleep ❌ chronic stress 👉 This is NOT just neck work. 👉 This is nervous system regulation. 👉 This is how the body resets itself. You don’t heal when you’re stressed. You heal when the vagus nerve is activated.

If you’re a health and movement professional, you’re in the business of real preventative health. 🙌🏻 In order to serve your clients with real preventative health care, it’s ideal that you can assess a persons neurologic function and understand its role in the persons health and performance. Here is one of many cranial nerve assessments that we teach for both cranial nerves 9 (Glossopharyngeal) and 10 (Vagus). You might wonder “how does that matter for me or my clients?”🤔 Deficits at the brainstem level exist in a healthy population too. And being able to identify them is next level. The brainstem is where most of our cranial nerves originate. And the brainstem plays a role in pretty much every critical survival based function. Finding issues through assessments like this could help you solve common problems with: - Stability/balance - Joint/muscle pain - Recurring injury - High blood pressure - Breathing issues - Posture issues - Muscle tone imbalances - Gait cycle The list goes on! What did your “AH, AH, AH” test look like? 👉🏻Join our FREE Cranial Nerve Masterclass introducing you to the neurology of movement and the role your cranial nerves play in balancing muscle tone, restoring posture, and reducing pain. 👉🏻We will be live on Tuesday, February 17th at 1pm EST and a replay will be available for all who sign up.

Understanding how your vagus nerve functions changes how trauma symptoms make sense. Many trauma responses aren’t psychological “patterns” to think your way out of — they’re neurobiological states of survival. The important part? The vagus nerve is highly responsive to somatic input. Movement, breath, sound, pressure, rhythm — these aren’t add-ons. They’re how the nervous system comes back online. When vagal pathways are activated, the body can: • shift out of chronic fight/flight • reduce shutdown and dissociation • restore regulation and internal safety • support emotional processing without overwhelm This isn’t about forcing calm. It’s about giving the nervous system what it needs to reorganise. My affordable online somatic healing classes (8 in total), alongside ‘How to Manage Your Emotions’ online course, are built around this exact work — practical, body-based, and trauma-informed. If this landed, save it. If it explains something you’ve struggled to name, share it. If you’re ready to work with your nervous system — not against it — explore the classes via the link in bio. ✨ #polyvagaltheory #somatichealing #nervoussystemregulation #complextrauma #traumahealing Credit @xavork 🙌

Most people don't realise this little 'swallow test" reveals a LOT about your nervous system. If you struggle to swallow 3 times in a row, it's often a sign your vagus nerve is underactive and your body is stuck in stress mode, even if you think you're "fine" Here's why 👇 Your vagus nerve controls: *Swallowing *Digestion *Heart rate *Calm + recovery after stress When your body has been in chronic fight or flight the muscles in your throat tighten, your swallow reflex weakens, and your whole system starts operating from survival instead of safety. That's when you begin noticing: ✨Anxiety or overstimulation ✨Poor sleep ✨digestive issues / bloating ✨Racing thoughts ✨Feeling "on edge" for no reason ✨Struggling to calm down even when nothing is wrong But here's the good news, you can retrain your vagus nerve. This test isn't a diagnosis... it's a signal that your body needs support, not judgement. If you failed the test, try these simple resets: 1️⃣Long exhale breathing Inhale 2 seconds - exhale 4 seconds or 4 - 8 Just make the exhale twice as long as the inhale 2️⃣Humming / AUM toning The vibration stimulates the vagus nerve and relaxes throat tension. 3️⃣ Cold water splash on the face Activates the dive reflex, shifts you out of stress mode. 4️⃣ Slow diaphragmatic breathing Hand on belly. Breathe deep and wide. Your vagus nerve loves this. 5️⃣ Gentle neck + jaw release Tight jaw = tight vagus nerve pathway. Just 1–2 minutes per day can change how your whole body feels. Your nervous system isn’t “broken.” It’s just tired of being in survival mode, and it wants to come home. 👇 Follow for more simple hacks to calm your vagus nerve and free yourself from stress and anxiety on command!

The vagus nerve was one of the most powerful nerves in the body. When it’s restricted, it doesn’t function optimally. It connects the brain to the heart and digestive system. If there’s too much tension in the neck, it can cause problems. Therefore, doing a powerful fascia release will create space for it to function properly. Do this Fascial release on both sides. Take one hand and pin the skin on the opposite trap, twist to create friction. Take the other hand and push the chin away, diagonally, and up. Move around and breathe! This will reduce the tension in the front of the neck and help regulate the vagus nerve. When you do this, see if you notice one side of your body, completely relax.

The vagus nerve is the main switch between fight or flight and rest and digest. When the body senses stress or threat, even a quiet one, it goes into protection. Muscles brace, breath gets shallow, digestion slows, sleep gets light. That’s fight or flight doing its job. CFT helps create a way back. Think of it like a kinked hose. The water isn’t broken. It just can’t get through. Or like a freeway backed up because of an accident. You don’t yell at the cars to move faster. You clear what’s in the way. CFT doesn’t dig in or force change. It releases the tension that’s blocking the signal. We don’t use deep pressure to work with the vagus nerve because safety comes from gentleness, not force. The vagus nerve responds to slow, subtle input that signals “you’re safe,” while deep pressure can feel intrusive and push the nervous system back into protection. Regulation happens when the body is invited to soften, not when it’s told to. When tissues soften and the body feels safe enough to let go, the parasympathetic system can come back online and the vagus nerve can finally do what it’s designed to do. Regulation isn’t pushed. It’s allowed.

Headaches, jaw pain, brain fog, or neck tension that won’t let up? Your vagus nerve might be the missing link. It’s the body’s main calming pathway — running from your brain through your neck, chest, and gut. When it’s stuck in fight-or-flight, muscles stay tight, nerves stay irritated, and pain becomes your new normal. Try these 3 simple vagus nerve activations to shift your system out of survival mode: 1️⃣ Cymba Concha Massage – Stimulates the vagus via your ear. Great before stress or during jaw tension. 2️⃣ Cold Exposure – Splash or cold pack to the face/neck triggers the dive reflex to calm inflammation and dizziness. 3️⃣ Humming – Vibrates vocal branches of the vagus. Try it when anxiety builds or before sleep. Comment FIX if you’ve been suffering with head, neck, or jaw pain, and I’ll DM you more info about my 1:1 program. We don’t just treat the physical side — we retrain the nerve signals keeping your system stuck in a loop that blocks healing. #VagusNerve #TMJRelief #NeckPainRelief #HeadacheHelp #migraines #vagusnervestimulation

YOU WON’T WANT TO MISS THIS ⬇️ 👉🏽 But first, comment VAGUS for a free tutorial on vagus nerve stimulation. The number one structure in the entire body you want to make sure is working well to resolve chronic pain, nervous system dysregulation & anxiety & gut issues is the VAGUS NERVE ✨ Why is the Vagus Nerve so important for your healing journey? 1️⃣Shifts you out of stress & into calm 2️⃣Reduces inflammation in the body & in turn pain 3️⃣Improves digestion & elimination The vagus nerve originates in the brain stem & branches off to the ear, mouth, throat & the majority of your organs 🫀🫁🧠 Specifically to this reel, the vagus nerve, together with the glossopharangeal nerve, innervates the soft palate in your mouth. One such way to assess uvula deviation & soft palate movement & in turn vagus nerve function is the “Ah, Ah, Ah test” Get in front of a mirror or camera on your phone, keep your tongue at the base of the mouth & simply make the sound ah, ah, ah! 👅 How to interpret what you see? When the vagus nerve is functioning optimally you will see the uvula remains vertical & lifts up & both sides of the soft palate lift up equally. When vagus nerve for example on the left side is weaker than the right, you will notice the uvula deviating to the stronger right side & the soft palate on the right side lifting higher than the left. The same goes for left side deviation. If both left & right side vagus are weak then the uvula wont lift at all! I’d love to hear how you went! Share your results (if you are comfortable doing so) in the comments below 🙏🏽 This is for education purposes only. Please seek examination from a health care professional as low vagal tone is one of many reasons for a deviated uvula. #VagusNerve #VagusNerveStimulation #ChronicPainRelief #NervousSystemRegulation #CalmNervousSystem #HealingJourney
