The autonomic nervous system, or the nervous system that is independent of our will, is actually driven by a strong will -
the will keeps us alive.
We are used to the idea that the brain commands the muscle and the muscle obeys that command, unless there are other disturbances in the communication. However, it is different with this involuntary nervous system, which is responsible for vital functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion and hormonal control.
The autonomic nervous system is divided into two opposing forces, the stress nervous system and the recovery nervous system, of which only one can be active at a time. The accelerator and brake of our vital functions, both of which are needed to maintain a balance in our ability to function and recover. The goal would be to achieve an optimal balance , whereby both sides work in harmony .
The recovery nervous system should be activated at rest, but this is not always the case. For example, in situations where prolonged overexcitation prevents the brakes from being activated and The gas is at the bottom day and night. The nervous system does not distinguish whether the overdrive is due to excitement or stress - physiologically both of these conditions affect us in the same way. Most often, stress is thought of as a psychological phenomenon, but for the most part, stress is a physiological imbalance that can cause vague and unexplained psychophysical symptoms. In order to influence physical stress, this imbalance must be influenced physiologically.
The effects of Neurosonic are visible in markers measuring autonomic nervous system function including a decrease in heart rate, an increase in heart rate variability, and muscle relaxation .
Neurosonic helps the body to calm down through external stimulation, allowing communication to travel along the ascending nerve pathways from the bottom up, i.e. from the body to the brain. The effects of Neurosonic are visible in markers measuring autonomic nervous system function including a decrease in heart rate, an increase in heart rate variability, and muscle relaxation . The involuntary nervous system's power to stay alive is not under our control, but its function can be influenced through the body .
We are getting to the root cause by fixing sleep and recovery so that we can create a healthy foundation for everyday functioning.
Neurosonic – Towards optimal alertness
Neurosonic makes restorative breaks an effortless part of everyday life. There is no need to perform a Neurosonic moment, but rather you are allowed to stop and reflect on yourself without any external demands. Neurosonic devices are controlled by an app, which offers various relaxing, alertness-activating and physical and mental recovery programs. The user selects the desired program and only adjusts the vibration intensity for each vibrator.
Easy, right?
The hardest part about using Neurosonic is not using the app, but listening to yourself. How to learn to recognize what your body and nervous system are telling you need right now?
Here are tips on how to utilize Neurosonic for different needs during the workday :
1. Do I need to calm my sympathetic nervous system and relieve stress at this moment ?
-
Choose a relaxing program or high-intensity workouts
2. Do I need more alertness and better performance ?
-
Choose an activation program that increases your alertness level or adjust the power settings to a higher level (it is best to start increasing the power settings with the 2 lowest vibrators first).
3. Do I need support for physical and psychological recovery ?
-
Select the recovery program
These various programs can improve well-being and functional capacity as we seek optimal alertness.
Let's go through these areas on a practical level next.
1. Calming the sympathetic nervous system and relieving stress
During the workday, stress, rush and interruptions put a strain on the nervous system, which can impair concentration and work efficiency. Neurosonic's relaxation programs help you recover from stress and reduce stress with just a 10-minute program .
Practical benefits during the workday:
-
When used during breaks:
-
-
Reduces stress and improves concentration for the rest of the day.
-
-
After lunch:
-
-
Prevents afternoon fatigue and supports efficient working.
-
-
After long hours of work:
-
-
Helps the body and mind recover, reducing the risk of exhaustion.
-
Tip: When the load is high and the sympathetic nervous system is in overdrive, less is more when it comes to power regulation . A lower vibration power balances the autonomic nervous system more effectively. In particularly stressful situations or during a headache, it is worth turning off the top vibrator completely by setting it to 0% power.
2. Increasing alertness and better performance
Sometimes the challenge of the workday is fatigue, lack of motivation or low energy levels. Neurosonic's activation programs help to awaken the body and mind .
Practical benefits during the workday:
-
In the morning before work:
-
-
Triggers alertness and improves concentration right from the morning.
-
-
Before important meetings or presentations:
-
-
Helps sharpen and improve performance.
-
-
When energy levels drop in the afternoon:
-
-
Prevents fatigue and supports stamina throughout the rest of the day.
-
Tip: In all programs, it is a good idea to start increasing the power moderately with the two lowest oscillators.
3. Supporting physical and mental recovery
Neurosonic's restorative programs are designed to support both physical and mental recovery. They help the body relax and promote recovery from stressful workdays.
Practical benefits during the workday:
-
After a physically demanding day at work or after training:
-
-
Helps the body recover from stress and reduces muscle tension.
-
-
As a mental stress reducer:
-
-
Supports mental resilience and adds mental resilience to everyday situations.
-
-
After work:
-
-
Promotes recovery and supports role change in everyday life
-
Tip: Try a restorative program at the end of the work week and notice the difference when you leave work behind and switch to Neurosonic when you are free. The 36-minute restorative program works as an afternoon energy booster and supports more physical recovery. The calmer 41-minute restorative program also takes into account sleep quality and is suitable as a restorative program to be taken later.
Neurosonic therefore supports the working day in many ways :
-
Relaxation programs calm the nervous system and relieve stress
-
activation programs increase alertness and improve concentration
-
Restorative programs help both the body and mind recover from stress.
Together, these programs significantly promote well-being and resilience at work. Neurosonic acts as a brake or accelerator for the autonomic nervous system, depending on need and choice , because through program selections and power adjustments, the function of the autonomic nervous system can be optimized by influencing the balance of body and mind.
Neurosonic as an enabler of daytime recovery – best tips
Neurosonic offers an easy and effective way to influence the balance of the autonomic nervous system, promoting both physical and psychological recovery.
Try Neurosonic as part of your daily routine and see how a small change can have significant effects on your well-being. Long work days and constant stress can be exhausting, but even short moments of recovery can work wonders.
⏳ 10-minute Neurosonic relaxation in the middle of the workday – helps you move away from overstimulation and supports concentration.
🧘 Conscious breathing or mindfulness practice – combine a Neurosonic moment with calm breathing to further deepen the relaxation effect.
If you want to enhance your Neurosonic moment, try focusing solely on the vibration during the program, where in your body you feel the vibration during the program, and how it moves through your body as the program progresses. This has been a working method for most people to also quiet the mind.
Breaking up workdays – solutions to common challenges:
“I don’t have time for breaks.”
📅 Schedule breaks on your calendar and use reminders – even 10 minutes of relaxation with Neurosonic improves concentration.
“Work tasks pile up if I take a break.”
⏳ Without breaks, productivity decreases. Even short breaks can increase efficiency.
“I can’t interrupt my work.”
⏰ Choose natural breaks, for example after completing a task or between meetings.
