First session

What to expect

Your first session moves through five simple stages. Start low, stay relaxed, and let your body settle in.

Session start

The first 10–20 seconds. You'll feel a gentle, nerve-stimulating sensation.

  • Start low — increase anytime
  • The feeling settles quickly

Placement

Find where the pulse feels clear and steady — below the jaw, both sides of your neck.

  • Adjust slightly for better contact
  • Good contact = smooth, even sensation
  • Not comfortable? Lower it or reposition

Intensity

Increase slowly to your comfort level. You should feel it — but never hurt.

  • Stronger isn't better — comfortable is
  • Adjust anytime during the session

During session

Stay relaxed and let the session do the work.

  • No need to do anything else
  • Consistency builds results

Session end

Session complete — a good start toward building stress resilience.

  • Effects may come now, or build over time
  • With regular use, your body adapts
About Pulsetto

Working with your body's calm system

Pulsetto helps your body manage stress by gently stimulating the vagus nerve — a key communication pathway between your brain and body that regulates stress, recovery, and relaxation.

Using non-invasive electrical pulses at the neck, it activates this natural pathway to support a calmer, more balanced state. By stimulating both sides, it works more evenly with your body's pathways.

This method — non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation — is based on established scientific research and used in modern wellness technologies.

What is the vagus nerve

One of the main communication pathways between your brain and body. It helps regulate how your body responds to stress, recovery, and relaxation. Think of it as your body's "calm system."

Why it matters for stress

When stress builds up, your body stays in a heightened state. The vagus nerve helps shift it back to calm:

  • relax faster
  • recover more efficiently
  • respond better to daily stress

The science

Pulsetto uses non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation — supported by clinical research. Unlike single-point approaches, it stimulates both sides of the neck (bilateral) for a more balanced, consistent signal.

In clinical studies, bilateral stimulation has been associated with:

  • increased markers of relaxation (e.g. alpha brainwave activity)
  • improved physiological stress response
  • measurable shifts toward a calmer state
