Feel like junk?!? Take a look at the last Google review and the symptoms a patient was struggling with before finding Premier Brain & Body.
When your autonomic nervous system starts struggling, the range of symptoms can be vast and confusing. Here is a quick look at the top ten symptoms of Dysautonomia/POTS.
1. Lightheadedness/dizziness when standing — often the hallmark symptom.
2. Tachycardia/palpitations — heart racing, pounding or skipping after standing.
3. Fatigue/exhaustion — often disproportionate to activity.
4. Brain fog — difficulty concentrating, thinking, remembering or processing.
5. Exercise intolerance — symptoms worsen with exertion or prolonged recovery afterward.
6. Near-fainting or fainting (presyncope/syncope).
7. Headaches/migraines.
8. GI symptoms — especially nausea, bloating, abdominal discomfort, constipation or diarrhea.
9. Tremor/shakiness and sweating abnormalities — particularly prominent in some hyperadrenergic patients.
10. Temperature/vascular symptoms — heat intolerance, feeling unusually hot/cold, and blood pooling/color changes in the hands and feet.
During our initial 2 hour Neuro examination, a deep look into the autonomic and visual system is performed. Along with a tilt table examination, these visual systems are examined bedside.
- Gaze fixation: holding your eyes still on a stationary target without drift
- Smooth pursuits: tracking a moving object smoothly and accurately
- Saccades: shifting visual attention quickly and precisely from one point to another
-Anti-saccade: a reflexive saccade toward the target indicates failure to adequately inhibit the automatic response.
- Optokinetic response: stabilizing vision in a moving or visually stimulating environment
- Convergence: adjusting eye position as objects move closer or farther away
When you combine these findings with the findings of the rest of the exam findings, we are able to better target our therapies, getting nerves to fire together, allowing them to rewire together, resulting in new brain connections via Neuroplasticity.
A lot of professionals are trained/specialized in one specific area of rehab:
👂vestibular
💪🏼 musculoskeletal
🧠 cognitive
👀 oculomotor
At Premier Brain and Body, Dr. Adam uses “Brain Based Therapies” using all of the above rehab strategies best suited for the patients needs. There is no cookie cutter approach as each patients treatment plan is created from their specific findings.
If you are struggling with POTS/Dysautonomia, we are here for you.
