    I’d like to clarify that there are many things that have contributed to my recovery, and I feel all of them fall under the category of nervous system regulation. But for POTS symptoms specifically, brain retraining has by far been the most helpful thing.
    Other healing tools that have contributed to my overall recovery include: animal-based diet, postural/neck curve correction, prolotherapy treatments, myofunctional therapy, optimizing circadian rhythm, connection with nature, cold therapy, etc. Not necessarily in that order. I truly believe the most important part of healing comes from within.
    Hope that all makes sense. ❤️

      I'd really like to know how brain retraining can stop a person's blood vessels from inappropriately expanding when they go in a hot shower or outside on a hot day and force blood to circulate back to their hearts, lungs and heads so they can get air and not pass out or the convulsions that come after that? How would brain retraining stop involuntary convulsive movements?

Thank you for sharing what has worked for you.

      I have had sleep dysregulation for my entire life and I recently found out I have a calcified pineal gland which could be potentially the reason I have non-restorative sleep. I feel this is at the root of a lot of my issues as my glymphatic system isn't able to get rid of brain waste. Do you know anything about what causes pineal gland calcification and how to fix it?

    Me tooo!!! I don’t have POTS anymore. Honestly what did it for me was the first adjustment by Dr Brian Hutchinson in Dr Ross Hausers office. I was waiting on the appointment laying down. I was their 97th percentile (very very very bad) pseudotumor cerebri aka intracranial hypertension, after a year and a half of bedridden propranolol life o was off the beta blockers in a WEEK after visiting Hausers office and implementing the advice. First was laying down every hour for 5 minutes and not turning my head to the right side for 3 months.. that was hard but understanding my physique it was great to recognize how I can recover. I’m going to live and raise my kids. I know this now. Regulating the nervous system starts with proper posture, proper alignment. I don’t believe in nervous system not functioning without a structural cause, that’s just unreasonable. There’s always vagus nerve constriction when this happens. Anyway, congratulations to us recovering !!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

    You are leaving out that you had a fusion and also did diet changes, prolotherapy injections and spine/posture realignments with weights. I've been following you for years and you started to get more functional after the weights and prolotherapy. I think you only mentioning brain retraining is doing a huge disservice to people that have pots and dysautonomia as I also have. Did you ever get a dmx? Before and after would be great. A dmx was the only thing that showed I have major ligament damage keeping my head over top of my head. I convulse with certain movements and it stops when I shift my jaw to the left. Where the dmx shows the most damage.

      @HealingWithRachael  9 місяців тому +8

      Thanks for your comment and I’m sorry that you feel that way. I’ve talked about all those things you mentioned in many of my videos. I am very clear that I don’t feel my surgeries contributed to my recovery, if anything they have made it more complicated. And for POTS symptoms specifically, brain retraining has been the most helpful thing by far. Carnivore & prolotherapy didn’t help my POTS symptoms nearly as much-though they did help with many of my other conditions/symptoms. And my diet and prolotherapy also fall under the umbrella of nervous system regulation. I’m sorry you feel I misrepresented the situation, but what I said is 100% true. Truly wishing you all the best.

    • @Sara-world
      @Sara-world 9 місяців тому

      @HealingWithRachael I also think it's important to mention that it isn't fully understood what brings on pots. Some say hormonal changes, viral exposures, vaccines, physical trauma, chemotherapy treatment and even ptsd. Depending upon what caused one person's pots may determine how they treat it. Also pots symptoms can vary substationally between cases involving wild blood pressure shifts within seconds and not moving, vertigo, vision loss, hearing loss, tachycardia, gastroparesis, respiratory issues, blood pooling, migraines, convulsions, temp disregulation and low iron storage. I'm against fusions and surgeries as well and you were clear that didn't help, but you started biking and being upright for longer periods of time in your videos after prolotherapy and your curve corrections, so it's just odd you don't mention that here. I remember you saying before carnivore diet was huge for you too. This video makes it sound like brain retraining was the main thing that helped you when your progress was years in the making with so many other variables. Can you say you saw progress without brain training?

    • @HealingWithRachael
      @HealingWithRachael  9 місяців тому +4

      Typically I say there are many things that have contributed to my recovery. They’re all related to regulating the nervous system. I may forget to add that in every once in a while, without intention. Yes, I had made progress before starting brain retraining. I’ve never claimed otherwise. Everything I said is 100% honest, brain retraining was by far the most helpful thing. My POTS was still severe after both carnivore & prolo and one of the conditions that I’d seen the least improvement from. I pinned a comment sharing some clarification for anyone that wants to read.
      Regardless of the trigger for POTS and dysautonomia, I believe the root of the issue is still nervous system dysfunction (that’s the definition of dysautonomia). Of course, brain retraining is only one method of regulation and I’ve talked about this in many of my videos.
      All the best.
