The Vagus Nerve and Your Health

Hey there, thank you for dropping by and learning more about the vagus nerve. Here is your vagus nerve checklist (and some extra value below too!).

What does your vagal tone score even mean?

High vagal tone = excellent stress resilience, generally great health, typically happy and well balanced

Low vagal tone = lowered stress resilience, lowered immune function, possibly more trauma (or the lack of ability to process experiences)

Understand yourself on a deeper level

I know you’ve probably been wondering if I work with adults too [it’s my most common question tbh, because I speak so much about kids], and the answer is a wholehearted YES. I was once an adult with a vagus nerve issue, with nervous system dysregulation, and with nobody who understood. So I’m here to say where you are right now? It makes sense - and it will make SO MUCH SENSE once you’ve watched this webinar.

Take a watch / listen to my free webinar all about the vagus nerve and your health.

Please note - the offer at the end of this webinar is currently being upgraded and not available.

 
 

Did this webinar resonate with you?

I love helping people make things ‘click’, in terms of their health, or their experience of the world.

There is so much we can do to tend to our vagus nerve but I wholeheartedly promise it’s not as simple as adding in some vagus nerve exercises that you find on TikTok! If it were that simple, I’d be out of a job.

You’ll be receiving emails from me with more information on the nervous system, and I’d love to hear how you go with them!


Hi I’m Carrie! 

I’m a chiropractor, applied kinesiologist and vagus nerve educator with a special interest in treating the vagus nerve in adults and children alike. 

I’ve been practising chiropractic for over 15 years, and am Perth’s only integrative neuroimmunology trained practitioner. 

On top of that I am a HeartMath-certified practitioner, and use all of these tools combined to care for my clients in person. 

I understand what it feels like to have physical or emotional struggles, and feel unable to shift them (not for lack of trying).

I once had such a dysregulated nervous system that I could barely function. And after chasing all the supplements and diets (and more), I discovered the vagus nerve.

And this, this lived experience, has given me the passion to support others in finding balance in their own nervous systems.

Sometimes, no matter what you try - there’s something missing and you need to call in specialist help and support - and I’ve got some offers below for you to get the ball rolling.

I’d love to see you expand your window of tolerance, and really be able to embrace life (whatever that looks like for you).

Want to jump straight into some regulation support? Here are some options -

Vagus Nerve and Nervous System Regulation for Adults

We all know that stress can take over our bodies, and run the show pretty quickly.

And maybe you’re here because you already know that your vagus nerve, or ability to regulate your stress response, is part of the issue.

Your nervous system is designed to be flexible.

We aren’t here to avoid all stress, or uncomfortable feelings.

We are here to move through the stress response, recognise it as an innate protective response, and move back into regulation.

When we are stuck in chronic stress? Well that’s where we start to see the wheels fall off.

The offers on this page will support you in moving away from chronic stress, back into regulation. Here’s where I would start.

STEP ONE - Awareness.

Take any of these options below and begin to flex that self-awareness muscle!

This will look and feel different for everyone. But without it, you cannot begin to shift the dial towards healing.

Choose what feels best for you to begin - between body-based exercises, journalling, or using a card deck, or using my one-of-a-kind nervous system oil.

 

1:1 Nervous system support online

My growing team is designed to be accessible and supportive of all your nervous system needs. We all work to our strengths, and co-manage care of your needs to get you the results you truly deserve. You’ll see my face down here too as an option once I’m back from maternity leave!
