We had a college student present with symptoms of frequent passing out and a diagnosis of POTS. Over the course of her care plan, she has not had another episode since starting consistent chiropractic care! Read below to see the relationship between POTS & a regulated nervous system!
Chiropractic & POTS:
POTS involves dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (the system that controls heart rate, blood pressure, etc.). Chiropractic adjustments—especially in the upper cervical spine (neck)—may:
• Reduce irritation to nerves that influence autonomic balance
• Potentially improve communication between brain and body
• Help shift the body toward a more balanced “rest-and-digest” state.
