Why is Vagus Nerve health so important? What the heck does it do anyways?
The Vagus Nerve is responsible for:
▶️ Sensory Processing – from the eyes 👀, ears👂, throat, tongue👅, heart🫀, lungs🫁, and abdomen
▶️ Motor Tone + Coordination – provides movement 🏃♂️functions for the muscles in the neck and throat responsible for swallowing and speech 🗣
▶️ Parasympathetic – responsible for digestive motility💩, respiration💨, and heart rate functioning ❤️🔥
▶️ Immune – helps regulate and reduce inflammation 🍊
▶️ Social + Emotional – helps regulate our social and emotional regulation 🤝
All of these functions are SO important for a child’s health and development!
