VeRelief 101
- Go from spiraling in stress to calm under control in as little as 30 seconds
- Retrain your nervous system to be more calm more often.
- Designed for the on-the-go use to reclaim your independence.
Why We Made VeRelief
I lost $40,000 in golf scholarships because panic hit me out of nowhere for a year straight. I spent 8 years studying biomedical engineering and created VeRelief because I know that desperate moment when nothing calms you down. If you're ready to reclaim control over your biology, your performance, and your future, I invite you to try VeRelief.
Take control, reset, and feel the relief
Feel it work, fast.
You shouldn't have to wonder if it's doing something. Real, adjustable pulses you can feel, calm in seconds, small enough to carry anywhere.

Gel Paste vs. Gel Tips
Clinical Contact. Zero Mess. Ready in Seconds.
Gel tips deliver the same clinical-grade contact as conductive gel, without a single step of the mess.
No gel. No prep. Just contact.
Conductive gel paste
Cold, goopy, and tacky. A sticky film to wipe off after every use.

Pre-hydrated and dry. Clean contact the second it touches skin.

Strong enough to feel. Gentle enough to start.
You set the intensity. Every level is designed to bring you to a calmer state. Higher settings get you there faster, lower ones more gently. With a setting for every sensitivity, you decide exactly how strong each session feels.

"I'm a combat veteran with PTSD and I've bought a lot of devices to help me with anxiety and panic attacks. They all have been somewhat helpful BUT my VeRelief Pro is BY FAR the BEST at relieving my symptoms the fastest. Its easy to put on the headphones, turn on the stimulator, and increase the power to a tolerable level, and sit back and relax as the anxiety melts away. I very strongly recommend the VeRelief Pro to anyone needing help with anxiety, panic attacks, or PTSD."

"I've been using the mini daily since I got it, I take it with me everywhere. It was recommended to my family member by her doctor. I had been struggling with anxiety , sleeping issues and PTSD and had tried yoga, CBD, breathing exercises etc so I thought I'd give this a try. It has significantly lowered my anxiety during the day, my heart is not racing like it normally does. I sleep better, I have a sense of calm during the day that I haven't felt for years and I'm so thankful this product is available."

"I purchased this device in total desperation, having suffered from the effects of a souped-up sympathetic nervous system for years... the pounding was GONE... That’s generally the effect from a good 15 minutes of box breathing. All done in less than 5, and no effort by me."

"So handy! The VeRelief is the easiest de-stressor and mind calming experience. Normally I have to go running or escape into nature to lower my stress and anxiety , which a lot of times that is not possible but using this allows me to take a step away from my desk and laptop, close my eyes and calm myself!"

"The Hoolest Mini is amazing… I found using it for 3 minutes per side before bed allows me to simply go to sleep, without the thought drumbeat running through my head. Using it before a stressing situation works brilliantly also, dropping away the immediate anxiety I've often experienced without this device."

The Vagus Nerve
Your Built-In Panic Reset
The vagus nerve — your body’s ultimate power line — connects your brain to nearly every major organ, earning its name from the Latin word for “wandering” as it weaves through your entire system.
Your body's vagus nerve is the vital switch that calms your system, releasing serotonin and acetylcholine to soothe panic and restore natural balance — the way your body was designed to heal.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can VeRelief help me?
VeRelief was built for people who can’t wait around to feel better. Whether you're stuck in a stress spiral, on the verge of panic, or just mentally drained from the day—VeRelief gives you instant control without pills, alcohol, or hours of deep breathing.
If traditional techniques like meditation or breathwork haven’t worked for you—or you simply don’t have time—VeRelief offers a stronger, faster way to reset your nervous system in seconds.
There’s no app to connect, no wires to untangle, and no messy gels to apply. Just grab it, press a button, and feel the shift.
It was designed to integrate seamlessly into your busy lifestyle. There are no wires, no app connections, and no messy gel or long setup times, so you can get a quick hit of calm at any time.
What does VeRelief feel like? Does it hurt?
Most people describe the sensation as a gentle buzzing, tingling, or vibration in the ear—like a focused energy pulsing through your nervous system.
In clinical studies with over 1,000 participants, these were the top sensations reported. It’s strong enough to feel something working, but pleasant enough to use daily.
The truth? It doesn’t feel like anything you’ve ever tried—because nothing else works quite like it.
Who Should Not Use VeRelief?
VeRelief is designed for mentally and physically healthy individuals dealing with high levels of daily stress, overwhelm, or occasional panic.
It is not intended for people living with chronic nervous system conditions, including but not limited to:
Long COVID
Chronic fatigue
Brain fog
Vertigo
Dysautonomia or POTS
Tinnitus
Any condition that causes nervous system hypersensitivity
If you’re managing stress related to a chronic illness, we strongly recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before using VeRelief. While it can be a powerful tool for stress relief, it hasn’t been clinically tested on individuals with these conditions and may feel too intense for sensitive users.
VeRelief is not recommended for:
People with metal implants in the head or neck
People with extremely sensitive skin
Individuals extremely reactive to external stimuli
Anyone with a diagnosed chronic neurological condition
How often should I use it?
For fast relief:
Use VeRelief anytime you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or on the edge of a panic attack. Just 1-5 minutes per side (2-10 minutes total) can reset your nervous system and bring you back to center.
For daily resilience:
To build a stronger, more stress-resilient nervous system, we recommend using VeRelief twice a day—once in the morning and once before bed—for 2–3 weeks. Then you can taper to once daily or a few times a week to maintain results.
Short on time?
Use the built-in slow-breathing pacer mode for quick, on-the-go calm. It’s designed to slow your exhale and enhance vagus nerve activation in just a few minutes.
You’ll find a full guide with suggested protocols in your VeRelief manual. For best results, turn up the intensity as high as you can comfortably tolerate.
What are the Gel Tips?
VeRelief uses patented gel tips—a major upgrade from the outdated gel paste used in other devices.
Our gel tips are made from soft, cosmetic-grade, non-toxic material that’s gentle on sensitive skin and ready the moment you need relief.
Unlike other vagus nerve stimulators that require messy gel application, long setup times, and frustrating cleanup, VeRelief’s gel tips are always attached, always clean, and instantly ready to go.
Just press a button—and get immediate stimulation with no prep.
This is what makes VeRelief the only truly panic-ready vagus nerve device.
No delays. No mess. No barriers.
How Long Does One Pair Last?
Each pair of Hoolest Activator gel tips lasts up to 1 week or 20 uses, whichever comes first.
After that, performance drops and you’ll want to replace them with a fresh pair for best results.
Can Multiple People Use the Same Gel Tips?
Yes—our gel tips can be safely shared between users if needed.
how does VeRelief compared to other vagus nerve devices?
Most vagus nerve stimulators on the market were designed for relaxation, not rapid relief. They often require:
Bluetooth connections
App setup
Messy gel pastes
Wires
And long wait times to feel anything
VeRelief was built differently—for people who don’t have time to wait.
It’s the only vagus nerve stimulator designed to stop panic and spiraling stress in seconds.
If you need a device you can trust in the moment—when breathing fails and your nervous system is in overdrive—VeRelief is the only option that delivers fast, powerful results without friction.
