Nervous System Training

An Integrated Healthcare Physician aims to form a deep understanding of each person and everything that has brought them to the clinic, and then adapts a range of options and tools to create a bespoke solution.

Stefan has trained in and has deep clinical experience of complex modern illness with over 35 years of clinical experience, which is distilled into the system he developed, Nervous System Training (Epiphany NST), including:

• Guided Visualisations & Counselling for stage of life;

• Mindfulness & Meditation training;

• Eating, nutrition and cooking support;

• Bespoke Herbal prescribing;

• Acupuncture & Bodywork for relaxation;

• Nature Connection;

• Breathing Retraining for O2/CO2 regulation;

• Trauma resolution therapy.

“If your nervous system and Vagus are responding well, everything is easier.”

Epiphany NST is interested in all of you, mind, body and feelings. Your nervous system is much more than just your brain and is interconnected through fascia and fluids to every cell in your body via the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), of which the Vagus Nerve is the largest part.

 What is Epiphany NST Nervous System Training?

This is Stefan’s specialist area and earned him the nickname ‘Vagus Nerve Whisperer’.
The Vagus Nerve is the longest nerve in the body and the largest part of the Autonomic Nervous System (which regulates the organs and how we feel). When people refer to the ‘Gut-Brain superhighway’, this is what they are talking about, and this speaks to the instinctive understanding we all have about the connection between the body and how we feel.

 If your nervous system and Vagus aren’t firing properly, then everything is harder than it could be and it’s difficult to fully get over anything. Your Vagal Nerve Tone regulates most systems, including the brain-gut pathway, blood pressure, heart and breathing strength, stress hormone regulation, stress tolerance and emotional balance. This is how the Vagus Nerve has a direct impact on common problems such as inflammation, weight issues, gut health, mood, fertility and more.

Issues that responds particularly well to Stefan’s approach:

• Stress and tiredness – IBS, IBD, headache, autoimmune, fatigue, metabolic...

• Women’s Health - hormonal or unexplained infertility, PMS, menstrual & bladder problems...

• Mood, anxiety, sleep issues, trauma...

• Skin – acne, eczema, rosacea...

 Stefan has been working with people’s nervous systems for decades, and he developed the Sensate technology to make it easier for people to work on this at home and between sessions as well. The things that increase Vagal Nerve adaptability (tone) and stabilise the nervous system are well understood but hard to do without support and guidance.
