Ear ‘Tickling’ Therapy Could ‘Help Thwart Ageing’:
The therapy delivers a small, painless electrical current to the ear, which sends signals to the body’s nervous system. Tickling the ear with a small electric current could rebalance the nervous system in over-55s and help them age more healthily, research suggests. Stimulation of the vagus nerve, which connects to the heart, lungs and gut, led to improvements in body, sleep and mood, a small study found. The University of Leeds team said the procedure could make a big difference to people’s lives.
