Vagal Nerve Stimulation. Vagal nerve stimulation is a treatment used to reduce the frequency and intensity of seizures when medications aren't effective. The vagus nerve is one of many nerves that carry messages to and from the brain. It helps regulate internal organs such as the heart and stomach. Nerve fibers within the vagus nerve are connected to the part of the brain believed to be responsible for producing seizures. This procedure involves placing a small electric stimulator in the neck around the vagus nerve and a power source near the armpit or chest.
