Comparison of the Effectiveness of Exercise and Vagus Therapy in Healthy Individuals

Comparison of the Effectiveness of Exercise and Vagus Therapy in Healthy Individuals

Objective: Sympathetic activity starts to increase during exercise. At the end of the exercise, while sympathetic activation decreases, parasympathetic activity increases. Sympathetic and parasympathetic excursions achieve homeostasis. Most of the parasympathetic activity effects are vagus code. It is aimed to compare the comparison of exercise and vagus therapy in these healthy individuals.

Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of stabilization exercise and vagus nerve stimulation on healthy individuals.

Research Method: This randomized controlled trial; It is planned to be carried out on students and administrative / academic staff at Gümüşhane University.

First of all, the application will be explained to the individuals and online consent will be obtained from the individuals for the application.

Group 1 will be given stabilization exercises. Vagus therapy will be applied to Group 2. Group 3 will be followed as a control group and no application will be made.

Evaluations;

1. Evaluation of autonomous parameters; It was planned to measure pulse and heart rate variability.
2. Chest circumference measurement
3. In addition, it is planned to use "Perceived Stress Scale", "Pitsburg Sleep Quality Scale" and "Fatigue Severity Scale" questionnaires.

All individuals were planned to be evaluated before, after and 1 month after the application.
