Pulsetto

I like the relaxation feeling, it helps me to reduce stress and I use it as a part of my wind down routine, I can't say that it's easy to track results in numbers from this device. But what I've noticed, when I feel I'm getting sick and I use it, it helps me to recover faster.

1. Gel is annoying but needed
2. Light is too bright especially for night sessions
3. The devise not that solid, quite shaky
4. Aggressive marketing

Reducing stress, improving HRV and sleep

- May be an option for some to stimulate the vagus nerve and improve HRV
- Relatively cheap compared to others

- Personally I don't like the sensation around the neck. Although it is possible to adjust the intensity levels it felt actually quite painful and uncomfortable for me (especially in my throat).
- You have to use a gel with the device which can be gluey and annoying to clean
- While vagus nerve stimulation is science backed and beneficial, the Pulsetto is not a CE medical product. Nevertheless it has a FCC certification. From my perspective, when you work with electricity at/in your body, you should be double secure that the product you use is safe.
- They are very aggressive in their marketing which can be annoying

I was looking for a vagus nerve stimulator to improve overall wellbeing as well as HRV. My goal was to be more in the parasympathetic state.

Unfortunately for me personally the experience with the Pulsetto wasn't really satisfying (but may be for others).
