Finding Relief from POTS
Living with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) can feel overwhelming. The rapid heart rate, dizziness, and fatigue make even simple tasks exhausting. Many people search for safe, supportive solutions for Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) to improve daily life. At Eastern Therapies Bondi Junction Sydney, we understand the impact of POTS and offer an integrative, personalised approach with acupuncture.
Recognising the Symptoms
POTS is commonly associated with:
- Fast heartbeat upon standing
- Lightheadedness or faintness
- Persistent fatigue and weakness
- Difficulty concentrating (“brain fog”)
- Reduced exercise tolerance
These symptoms can limit work, study, and social life, which is why many seek supportive therapies alongside medical care.
Why POTS Develops
Several factors may contribute to POTS, including:
- Autonomic nervous system imbalance – difficulties in regulating heart rate and blood pressure.
- Circulatory changes – reduced blood volume and poor circulation can restrict oxygen supply to the brain.
- Genetic tendencies – family history may play a role in susceptibility.
- Triggers – viral infections, surgery, or trauma may set off the condition.
Understanding these causes helps guide a tailored treatment plan.
Acupuncture Bondi Junction: A Supportive Option for POTS
In Chinese Medicine, POTS is often viewed as a sign of imbalance in circulation and nervous system regulation. Acupuncture may support the body by:
- Encouraging steadier blood flow to the brain and heart
- Calming the “fight or flight” stress response
- Supporting energy and reducing fatigue
Research highlights acupuncture’s potential role. A 2018 study in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine reported improvements in dizziness and fatigue for POTS patients after acupuncture, with no major side effects. Similarly, Acupuncture in Medicine (2019) noted enhanced heart rate variability, a marker of improved nervous system function.
