Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is a complex and often misunderstood condition that affects the autonomic nervous system, leading to symptoms like dizziness, rapid heartbeat, fatigue, and brain fog—especially when standing. While many patients are prescribed multiple medications to manage these symptoms, these drugs often serve as temporary band-aids. At The POTS Treatment Center, we focus on empowering patients to reduce or even eliminate their symptoms by addressing the root dysfunction, not just masking it.
Medications for POTS—such as beta blockers, fludrocortisone, or SSRIs—can offer short-term symptom relief, but they rarely correct the underlying autonomic imbalance. In many cases, patients are placed on several medications simultaneously to control individual symptoms, which can lead to unintended side effects and worsening of others. Instead of improving quality of life, this often leads to a frustrating cycle of symptom shifting and increased dependence on pharmaceutical solutions.
Our approach at The POTS Treatment Center is different. We believe in teaching patients how to restore balance to their nervous system through a personalized, drug-free protocol that includes biofeedback training, targeted breathing exercises, nutrition guidance, and physical reconditioning. These therapies work together to strengthen the body’s natural regulation mechanisms—helping reduce symptoms at their source, rather than covering them up. Patients leave with practical tools they can use for long-term management and recovery, not just momentary relief.
Ultimately, true healing from POTS involves more than just managing symptoms—it means understanding and correcting the system that’s malfunctioning. By helping patients reduce reliance on medications and focus on whole-body self-regulation, The POTS Treatment Center offers a path toward lasting stability and restored health. Many of our patients have successfully transitioned off medications and now live fuller, more active lives—without the fog of pharmaceuticals.
