By leveraging how the brain, body, and nervous system work together, we can create happier, healthier, more balanced lives. Used with the Xen by Neuvana unit, the Neuvana app allows you to easily customize and control your Xen session via Bluetooth connection. Xen by Neuvana is a wellness product specifically designed to provide gentle electrical stimulation to a branch of the vagus nerve in your left ear through patented conductive earbuds. You can sync the stimulation signal to the beat of your music (Sync Mode), the sounds around you (Ambient Mode), or you can experience the stimulation in a pre-programmed pattern (Sensation Mode). The Neuvana app is a platform that allows new waveforms and stimulation patterns to be uploaded as they are created.
