A non-invasive vagal stimulation device (10) comprises a body having a vibration member (14). The stimulation is created by the vibration member (14) which has a vibratory rate that can be adjusted from being off to a preferred operating range. The non-invasive stimulation method consists of placing the non-invasive stimulation device (10) in the vicinity of the carotid artery bifrication where arises a carotid sinus and body which contain afferent sensory nerves that travel to medulla oblongata of brain, and either applying pressure in place, or moving the device (10) along the target arm. The method can be accomplished either with the vibration feature of the device turned on or off.

Cette invention concerne un dispositif (10) de stimulation vagale non invasive comprenant un corps muni d'un élément vibrant (14). La stimulation est générée par l'élément vibrant (14) dont le taux vibratoire peut être réglé entre un mode éteint et une plage de fonctionnement préférée. La méthode de stimulation non invasive consiste à positionner le dispositif (10) de stimulation non invasive à proximité de la bifurcation de l'artère carotide où prend naissance un sinus carotidien et du corps carotidien contenant les nerfs sensoriels afférents qui rejoignent le bulbe rachidien du cerveau, puis à exercer une pression in situ, ou à déplacer le dispositif (10) le long du bras cible. Cette méthode peut être mise en oeuvre avec l'élément vibrant du dispositif allumé ou éteint.
