摘要
Auricular nerve stimulation techniques for modulating brain function of a person and/or improving the person's wellness, and associated systems and methods, are provided. A representative system includes a signal generator having instructions to generate an electrical signal, at least a portion of the electrical signal having a frequency at or above the person's auditory frequency limit, an amplitude in an amplitude range from about 0.1 mA to about 10 mA, and a pulse width in a pulse width range from 5 microseconds to 30 microseconds. The system further includes at least one earpiece having a contoured outer surface shaped to fit against the skin of the person's external ear, external ear canal, or both, the at least one earpiece carrying at least two transcutaneous electrodes positioned to be in electrical communication with the auricular innervation of the person, e.g., the auricular vagal nerve.
