Neuromodulation & whole-body cold

Approved implanted neuromodulation, consumer vagus gadgets and whole-body cryotherapy should not share one evidence label.

Why it circulates

Autonomic “reset” and inflammation claims provide a simple explanation for complex symptoms.

What the evidence supports

Defined medical indications cannot validate consumer wellness devices or general longevity effects.

Practical appraisal

Separate implanted, transcutaneous and non-electrical practices; separate acute sensation from durable outcomes.
