Your Heart Rate Variability and Chiropractic Care
The Nervous System Papers. What HRV really measures, the hidden signs your recovery is broken, and the morning habits that move it.
Research
The research chiropractic has been missing.
Once a practice member left the table, no one could measure what happened next. A ring on the hand can.
The Nervous System Papers
Issue 01 out now
Our own plain-language series on the nervous system and chiropractic care. Written to read yourself, then hand to a practice member.
The validation study
Underway
A validation study is underway with the New Zealand College of Chiropractic. Its findings will be shared here once they are published.
The dataset
Collecting, with consent
A consented, longitudinal nervous-system dataset built around the timestamped adjustment. Research consent is a separate opt-in in the app: anonymised, never sold, and yours to withdraw at any time.

Your Heart Rate Variability and Chiropractic Care.
What HRV really measures, the hidden signs your recovery is broken, and the morning habits that move it.
Our papers, and what we are reading.
Our own Nervous System Papers, beside published, peer-reviewed work on the nervous system, HRV and ring sensing. None of the outside work tested the ChiroRing. It is the ground the study and the dataset stand on.
PLOS ONE, 2025
A sham-controlled trial that measured blood biomarkers across twelve weeks of chiropractic care.
The effects of 12 weeks of chiropractic spinal adjustments on physiological biomarkers in adults: A pragmatic randomized controlled trial
Sensors, 2024
How closely overnight heart rate and HRV from a smart ring track an ECG, and what signal quality that takes.
Europace, 2013
A meta-analysis of heart rate variability and the risk of a first cardiovascular event in people without known heart disease.
