“Noisy” Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation

Noisy galvanic vestibular stimulation (nGVS) is a technique that involves applying a small electrical current or sound wave to the vestibular nerve, which is responsible for our sense of balance and spatial orientation. This technique has been used in the treatment of dizziness and vertigo, as well as other neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and stroke. nGVS works by disrupting the balance signals that are sent to the brain from the vestibular system. This disruption can help to reset the brain’s balance system and reduce symptoms of dizziness and vertigo. The technique has been shown to be effective in a number of studies, with some patients experiencing significant improvements in their symptoms.
