Physiocare's Experience in Action
Understanding Dolphin Neurostim
Dolphin Neurostim Therapy uses gentle, targeted microcurrent pulses to help the body heal. By stimulating specific points on the skin, it can soften and repair scar tissue, calm the nervous system, and naturally reduce pain. Studies have shown that many people experience significant pain relief — often over 50% — after just one scar treatment.
This approach combines principles from neurology, acupuncture, and modern pain science to support faster, evidence-based recovery.
How Does Dolphin Neurostim Work?
The Dolphin Neurostim delivers a very mild microcurrent (less than 1 mA) to specific points on the skin, such as acupuncture points or muscle trigger points. This gentle stimulation can calm an overactive stress response, lower cortisol (the “stress hormone”), and support healthy nervous system balance.
When applied to scar tissue, the therapy helps soften and restore mobility by encouraging healthy cell activity, improving blood flow, and supporting tissue repair. Research shows that many people experience significant pain relief — often more than 50% — after just one treatment, especially for chronic pain and stubborn scars.
Benefits of Dolphin Neurostim Therapy

- Scar improvement: Softer texture, better flexibility, and reduced tightness.

Vagal Nerve Stimulation (VNS) at PhysioCare
Looking for a natural way to support healing, reduce stress, and relieve pain? At PhysioCare Ottawa, we offer vagal nerve physiotherapy—a safe, non-invasive treatment that stimulates the vagus nerve to restore your body’s natural balance.
What Is Vagal Nerve Stimulation?
The vagus nerve connects your brain to vital organs and regulates the parasympathetic nervous system (“rest and digest”). Through gentle electrical impulses, manual therapy, or guided breathing, vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and promote faster recovery.
Benefits of Vagal Nerve Therapy at PhysioCare
- Natural Pain Relief & Inflammation Control – Supports recovery from injuries and chronic pain.
- Stress Reduction & Relaxation – Activates your body’s calming response.
- Improved Mobility & Nerve Function – Aids neurological recovery and rehabilitation.
- Enhanced Circulation & Healing – Boosts blood flow, oxygen delivery, and tissue repair.
- Whole-Body Wellness – Supports better sleep, digestion, and resilience.
Who Can Benefit?
VNS may help patients with:
- Chronic pain or musculoskeletal injuries
- Post-surgical rehabilitation
- Stress-related tension
- Neurological conditions (concussion, stroke, nerve injuries)
- Preventative care and general wellness
Why Choose PhysioCare for Vagal Nerve Therapy?
At PhysioCare, our experienced physiotherapists combine evidence-based treatments with vagal nerve physiotherapy to help you recover faster, prevent setbacks, and achieve long-lasting results.
