🌿 The Vagus Nerve: Your Body’s Secret Pathway to Calm and Healing

If you’ve been living with stress, anxiety, or chronic tension, your nervous system may be stuck in “high alert.” That wired, restless feeling isn’t just in your mind — it’s held in your muscles, your breath, and even your organs.

At Better Better Hei Gung Therapy in Walla Walla, we specialize in helping your body let go of chronic stress by working directly with the Vagus Nerve — your body’s built-in calming system.

Our gentle, science-based approach combines manual therapy, acupressure, and Hei Gung energetic techniques to help your nervous system relearn safety and ease.

🧠 Meet the Vagus Nerve — Your Inner Calming Pathway

The Vagus Nerve is the main communication line of your parasympathetic nervous system — the part responsible for rest, digestion, and emotional regulation.

When it functions well (high vagal tone), you:

🌿 Recover quickly after stress

💤 Sleep deeply

💖 Digest food efficiently

🕊️ Feel emotionally grounded

But when stress becomes chronic, vagal tone drops — leading to anxiety, tension, digestive issues, fatigue, and brain fog.

Our Hei Gung Therapy sessions are designed to help your body naturally restore vagal tone through touch, movement, and nervous system regulation.

🌸 How Hei Gung Therapy Supports Your Vagus Nerve

1️⃣ Gentle Touch That Signals Safety

Slow, rhythmic, and precise touch activates skin and fascia receptors that tell your brain: “You’re safe.”This turns down the “fight-or-flight” response and enhances parasympathetic (vagal) calm.

💫 Cause & Effect: Soothing touch → Safety signals → Reduced stress response → Calm, relaxed body

2️⃣ Releasing Physical Restrictions Along the Vagal Pathway

The Vagus Nerve passes through the neck, chest, and abdomen — areas that often hold tension from posture, trauma, or emotional stress.

Our gentle fascial release work improves tissue glide and mobility, reducing physical drag on the nerve and helping your whole system breathe easier.

💫 Cause & Effect: Less fascial restriction → Freer nerve communication → Better gut and emotional balance

3️⃣ Restoring Breath — The Ultimate Vagal Reset

Your diaphragm directly influences vagal tone. Shallow breathing keeps you tense; deep, rhythmic breathing tells your body it’s safe.

We help free the ribs, spine, and diaphragm so your breathing can naturally deepen.

💫 Cause & Effect: Freer breath → Higher Heart Rate Variability → Balanced nervous system → Emotional ease

4️⃣ Reconnecting to Your Inner State (Interoception)

Through gentle, mindful touch, your awareness turns inward — a process called interoception.

This helps your brain sense internal calm, activating the ventral vagal system, which supports emotional resilience, presence, and safety.

🌼 The Better Better Difference: Calm That Lasts

This is more than relaxation. It’s neurological re-education — teaching your body how to return to calm on its own.

Our clients across Walla Walla and College Place report:

✅ Reduced anxiety and stress reactivity

At Better Better Hei Gung Therapy, we don’t just treat symptoms — we help your entire system remember how to regulate itself again.
