Your first Nuropod session

Getting started with your Nuropod is actually quite easy, however, it’s important that you follow these directions in order to get the most out of your Nuropod.

  1. Prepare your tragus. Apply a little bit of moisture on your tragus before using your Nuropod. No need to use a gel, just a little bit of your moisture will do.

  2. Attach the device. Make sure your earpiece is placed correctly on the tragus of your ear. The cable should go over and behind your ear in order to keep the electrodes in place.

  3. Turn on your Nuropod. Press and hold the “On” button for 5 seconds.

  4. Find your optimal energy level. Gradually increase the energy levels on your Nuropod to see which energy level feels right to you. You should be experiencing light, gentle tingling without any pain or discomfort.

  5. Go on with your day. Perform normal, everyday activities while using your Nuropod and notice the sensations of relaxation, decreased stress, improved mood, and more energy in your body.

Create your perfect Nuropod routine

Everyone’s Nuropod journey is different. We recommend using Nuropod everyday for 30-60 minutes, in the morning or split between morning after waking up and evening before sleep. Feel free to experiment and test out Nuropod in different scenarios in order to fit Nuropod perfectly into your personal routine.

The do’s and don’ts of your Nuropod sessions

  • Do integrate Nuropod into your everyday routines. Whether you’re cooking, watching TV, reading a book, or meditating, Nuropod is your perfect companion that’ll help you relax.

  • Don’t sleep or exercise with your Nuropod on. You want to use your Nuropod in a relaxed, controlled environment where you can be aware of its effects.

  • Don’t use it in the bath or the shower. Water and moisture can damage the device.

  • Don’t overdo it. Nuropod is designed for relaxation, and it shouldn’t be used for more than 60 minutes per day.

  • Do experiment with your routine. Many users prefer using Nuropod in the morning to start the day energized and in the evening to wind down before bed. But you can also use it during work breaks, after the gym, or while enjoying an afternoon coffee. As long as you’re using it safely, Nuropod’s possibilities are endless.

  • Do take care of your Nuropod. Once you’re done with your sessions, store your Nuropod safely in your Nuropod carry bag. Keep it away from liquids, water, and steam. Use a simple dry wipe to clean it.

  • Do keep it away from children. Vagus nerve stimulation hasn’t been extensively researched in children, so as a precaution, Nuropod should be used by adults only.
