Hi Nicole, You're right that there is a brief period where new members can't post links. We do this to deter spammers and keep the community safe.
I believe this is the article about two non-peer reviewed studies that "suggest that some long COVID-19 symptoms may be related to the effect of SARS-CoV-2 on the vagus nerve and that the use of enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP)—which increases blood flow—can improve some of those symptoms, respectively."

Nicole, can you explain a couple of things from your post? The dolphin you mention is in reference to @welchllb's post about the brand name Dolphin Vagal Nerve Stimulator, correct? You mention that the craniosacral therapy was not administered in a medical setting. What type of setting was it?

@colleenyoung Sure! And thanks for explaining the link policy that makes sense.
The article you linked was the one I was looking at yesterday as well. Thanks for noting it was not peer reviewed.
And yes stimulator I was referring to was the same one mentioned in @welchllb ‘s post.
The setting I had the treatment in was a body work/alternative health space with a cranial sacral therapist.
The treatment seemed to calm my system down for the afternoon/overnight but I could not say there were any lasting effects today.
