ROCKAWAY, N.J., April 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- electroCore, Inc. (Nasdaq: ECOR), a commercial-stage bioelectronic medicine and wellness company, today announced its participation in Hacking the Vagus Nerve, a documentary from the Healing Journeys series produced by The Root Cause Project and The Vagus Nerve Society. The film explores the role of the vagus nerve in regulating stress, mood, and immune function and features expert commentary from Peter S. Staats, MD, MBA, Chief Medical Officer of electroCore, and founder of the Vagus Nerve Society, alongside other leading physicians in the field.
Interest in the vagus nerve as a regulator of overall health has been gaining broader attention. Hacking the Vagus Nerve brings that conversation to a broader audience, combining patient experiences with clinical perspective to show how non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) is being used to support nervous system regulation across a range of conditions.
The film features several of electroCore’s technologies, including prescription gammaCore for the treatment of migraine, Truvaga Plus for stress management, and TAC-STIM for human performance. Together, these platforms show how vagus nerve stimulation is being applied across prescription medical and consumer wellness settings, specifically within electroCore’s portfolio of products.
electroCore has been focused on developing these technologies for over 20 years. Through continued innovation, clinical research, and commercialization, the Company has helped move vagus nerve stimulation from theory into practical use, with ongoing work in areas such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Long COVID, and other stress-related conditions.
“We are seeing increasing recognition of the vagus nerve as a key regulator of multiple physiological systems,” said Dr. Staats. “Non-invasive stimulation offers a practical way to influence these systems, and the evidence supporting its role continues to build.”
electroCore’s inclusion in Hacking the Vagus Nerve underscores how quickly this category is advancing. As awareness grows, the Company remains focused on developing and delivering therapies that harness the therapeutic potential of the vagus nerve.
Hacking the Vagus Nerve is part of the Healing Journeys documentary series and is available for viewing at https://www.healingjourneysfilm.com.
