Zap your ear to stay young? scientists test simple stimulation
NCT ID NCT07292623
Summary
This small study explored whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation applied to the ear could help improve the balance of the body's automatic nervous system in healthy older adults. Researchers compared two different spots on the ear to see if the stimulation could affect heart rate patterns, hand steadiness, balance, and concentration. The goal was to gather basic knowledge about this technique's effects, not to treat a specific disease.
