A hiccup cure that really works The vagus nerve coordinates swallowing and breathing, and it even runs the vocal cords. The hiccup starts in the spinal cord in what seems to be a hiccup reflex control centre between the third and fifth cervical segments. The vagus nerve comes into this hiccup reflex control centre, and another nerve leaves it. Electrical impulses travel down this second nerve to the diaphragm and tell it to contract, making you breathe in. Other electrical impulses go to muscles that are involved in breathing out, and switch them off.
