On The Wellness Driven Life Show, April Chavez welcomes Amy Gaston, VP of Strategic Growth at OhmBody (a Spark Biomedical company), to unpack how wearable neurostimulation is changing menstrual health from the inside out. OhmBody's discreet earpiece uses TANS (Transcutaneous Afferent Neurostimulation) to target the vagus and trigeminal nerves, balancing the autonomic nervous system for drug- and hormone-free relief—no pills, no patches, no overrides.​ With over a decade of scaling mission-driven brands, Amy brings operational smarts and user-centered insight to FemTech, helping women reclaim energy and ease during their cycles.​ In this episode, you'll discover: Why stress and emotional load amplify cramps, bloating, and flow—and how the body's \"fight or flight\" mode plays a bigger role than hormones alone.​ Clinical trial results: up to 55% reduction in pain, average 55% less blood loss (35% on day 1), plus gains in mood stability and sleep for 88% of users.​ How OhmBody works: low-frequency pulses shift you toward the \"rest and digest\" state, supporting everything from gastric upset to emotional resilience.​ Practical steps to advocate for yourself when pain gets dismissed—and why non-hormonal options are surging in demand. If periods have ever derailed your path, this offers science, hope, and a gentler way forward.
