About this course

Our nervous system autonomically controls most of our physiology and the vagus nerve is our central superhighway of neural regulation. We have two vagus nerves, running down each side of our bodies with about 100,000 nerve fibres in each.

This remarkable nerve is responsible for a wide array of bodily functions including regulating cardiovascular function, digestive processes, modulating the immune system, mood and emotional states and controlling involuntary breathing patterns
Because of its very wide range of effects, any vagus nerve dysfunction can produce a large number of signs and symptoms. Many of these are not associated with a specific condition so are frequently not diagnosed correctly.

To give us a clear perspective of vagus nerve function and how it presents, Emrys Goldsworthy has created a 3-part series of presentations that goes into detail on hypovagal and hypervagal tone and their various presentations.

Part one details vagal function and diagnosis of vagal dysfunction. Part two explores the various causes of vagal distraction and part three covers treatment options.

Emrys Goldsworthy

Emrys has been an educator and clinician for more than 16 years. He held the position of Senior Lecturer over the Myotherapy and Musculoskeletal Therapy program at the Endeavour College of Natural Health for 9 years on therapeutics and rehabilitation. He has also presented on the topic of low level laser and shockwave therapy. His particular focus is on the treatment of the nervous system with a special interest in the Vagus nerve.

Emrys is a pioneer in holistic healthcare, having developed a distinctive method of treatment known as the Functional Neuroarticular System (FNAS). This innovative approach places the nervous system at the forefront, offering relief for various pain states and addressing numerous health conditions. Alongside FNAS, Emrys has also introduced the Goldsworthy Method of Vagus Nerve Treatment. Emrys' approach offers groundbreaking solutions to chronic diseases.

Emrys has been at the forefront of a transformative movement in healthcare known as The Terrain Paradigm which seeks not only to reevaluate the origins of disease but also to rethink the foundational sciences, including human biology and biochemistry, that form the bedrock of modern medicine. Key tenets of The Terrain Paradigm encompass a recognition of the nervous system's overarching control of bodily functions, the body's intrinsic use of light for communication and energy, and a reimagining of toxins as primary culprits behind conditions previously attributed to infection, neurodegeneration, cardiovascular issues, or autoimmunity.

Beyond his healthcare pursuits, Emrys boasts a rich tapestry of interests. A connoisseur of both classical and contemporary ballet, he holds the esteemed position of Artistic Director and Choreographer for the Brisbane-based Ballet Infinity. Emrys emphasises the significance of clean air, water, and food. He is a fervent believer in the age-old adage: let food be thy medicine.
