[Review] 创伤导向催眠治疗,改善自律神经失调反应 - Miss SY

Review from Miss SY:

曾经以为自己很坚强,控制情绪能力好。原来一直以来的控制只是在压抑在忍,没有好好管理,没有让情绪适当流动。情绪本来就不是像湖面那样平静,更没有一帆风顺;情绪就像海浪,有起有伏,要学会乘风破浪,做自己情绪的主人。 


去年发生了一些我很不希望发生的事情。事情虽然过了但接下来的我还是面临睡眠问题,睡醒来也是很紧张的状态,几乎每天都无缘无故泪流满面,紧张的状态也一直持续,对事对人都很敏感,有时觉得心跳很快,有时甚至觉得呼吸困难。我开始察觉我控制不了自己的情绪,这也大大影响了我的日常生活对很多事情都不感兴趣对亲密关系没有安全感。我也开始担心未来会不会还有更多不如意的事情会又让我陷入更深焦虑。因此我好奇想寻找我的行为背后的根源。 


我上网查询找到New Mind决定试试脑电波和催眠疗法。催眠不是什么魔法,是古老又先进的心理治疗或调节模式。最深刻的是老师引导我去寻找过去的自己,未治愈的自己。让我察觉到自己内在的声音需要被聆听,也学会安抚内在的小孩。在老师的引导下渐渐发现自己的抗压视窗变大了,懂得怎么管理情绪允许它们的流动,更懂得怎么正视内心的声音,拥抱内在的小孩,让他重新长大。表达能力也提升了,也学会设定边界,亲密关系的质量也大大提升。 感谢生命中发生的一切让我有机会来到New Mind遇见Dr Hiro 开始了有趣的自我探索之旅。大脑真的很神奇,每一堂课后都像是一次又一次的醒悟,对自己有了更深层的了解,不断提升心灵上的成长。这种成长是言语表达不出来也摸不着的东西。每个人都可以拥有属于自己的力量和温柔,只是需要被启发,找到真我,活出自我。

*The Tree-Drawing Test: Left as Before treatment (February) and Right as After treatment (September)。
Dr Hiro的话:
个案其实已经忘了原来半年前(2月)曾经画过一颗树。潜意识的语言可以说是图像,从树木状态的变化,我们依稀可以窥探见她潜意识层面的蜕变。她觉察到今天(9月)所画的树,充满了生命力,也更稳固和开花结果了。树木也找到了中心点,不再被左右。这相呼应她在review中所提及的感觉与体验,即"渐渐发现自己的抗压视窗变大了,懂得怎么管理情绪允许它们的流动,更懂得怎么正视内心的声音,拥抱内在的小孩,让他重新长大。表达能力也提升了,也学会设定边界,亲密关系的质量也大大提升。"

[Review] Trauma-Informed Intervention for the Anxiety, Fear, Depression and Medically Unexplained Symptoms - Miss CT

 


感谢Hiro让我找到了自己!在还没有来到NEW MIND BRAIN HEALTH CENTRE的时候,我总是感到特别焦虑,忧郁,害怕,心里总会莫名感到害怕,脑子里总有千万个担心,也发现到自己对很多事情都越来越无感,似乎没有特别的感觉,感觉自己特别无能没用,也常觉得自己做的不够好,甚至觉得自己的存在很多余,有着轻生的念头,随着情绪的不稳定,身体也渐渐越来越多毛病,整天都感觉全身上下都不舒服,有一段时间又突然天天头晕,做什么都感到无力,只想睡觉,当然也去见了心理医生(精神科),但是服用药物之后,情况一直也没有好转。

直到通过朋友的介绍来做了脑电波检测(Brain Mapping Assessment)后就决定接受Hiro的治疗,很感谢缘分让我来到这里,找到了自己,通过整个疗程让我更清楚了,了解自己情绪的根源,也知道自己活着的意义,不像以前那样总是感到焦虑恐惧了,当然最重要的是学会了当情绪来临时该怎么处理好,从中也学会了人与人之间的底线,自我的权力,觉知,真正的爱自己,聆听自己的内心声音,保护好自己的内心

其实治疗不可怕,情绪有问题也不可怕,只要勇于面对自己,会发现原来自己也能够活得很通透。还能通过这样的疗程,让人们更了解自己的内心,真的太棒了。

【Review】成功改善情绪不稳定和身体上的痛 - Case 菁Jing


记得2年多前的MCO反反复复的开关, 这导致了我患有情绪压抑。在今年一月的机缘巧合底下在电台(988)听到Hiro Koo博士的访谈。于是便登门接受治疗和了解创伤的伤害性。

【原创】自律神经的基础运作原理 | 你可以做什么?

将近一个月以来,都不时收到个案告诉我他们不时出现一些身体不适和情绪不安症状。其实,在这时期是颇正常的反应。在居家隔离期间,Hiro我有时也会出现这些症状。出现症状并无大碍,最重要你懂得如何调整它。
我相信透过潜意识再教育,你们了解了背后的因缘,当不再一味的被未知的疑虑影响,面对自律神经失调症状的你,当读完这篇,或许心也会安心下来。接下来啊我会以跷跷板作为比喻,让你了解该做些什么安稳你的大脑自律神经系统。


注意以下4大要点,了解自律神经的基础运作原理:
A:要了解我们的自律神经一整天的反应就跟跷跷板一样。有起有落。

B:当跷跷板平衡时,自律神经也处在一个最平衡(这时身体状况最放松又健康),最有社交连接和安全状态(副交感神经之Ventral Vagal激活)。想一想,跷跷板要怎样平衡呢?就是跷跷板左右两端都要有人坐着。有质量的社交连接(Social connection)、有同理心的陪伴与深谈,可以让我们的大脑处于平衡状态。居家隔离期间,善用你的网路媒介,减少肺炎相关新闻追踪,多多和亲朋戚友透过社交软体”面谈“。

C:当跷跷板失衡,你突然被”顶“到至高点,感觉是害怕的对吗?这就像是每天我们生活里突如其来的一些负面新闻、一些压力、一些烦恼和人事问题影响而变得紧张、害怕或不安,我们就会产生交感神经反应(Sympathetic response)。这时候我们开启了”战斗模式“,身体开始响起了警报器Alarm。这时最容易出现身体不适如心悸,肠胃不舒服,对声音敏感甚至生气急躁等等情绪反应。然而这个反应是可以平衡回来的,最重要你要建立”第2要点“的资源(懂得陪伴的亲朋戚友或治疗师所教导的自助技术),让你渐渐回复平衡点。

D:当跷跷板失衡,你跌倒了后,你的大脑潜意识感觉到反抗也无效,从而陷入了无助无可奈何的状况里(副交感神经的Dorsal Vagal激活起来)。这时人很容易陷入抑与,无精打采,无法专注,非常疲累的状态。大脑记忆力开始变差,常常不在状况,人变得抽离恍惚,这时也容易出现低血压,肠胃问题和体重问题。同样的,你也需要建立起”第B要点“这个资源,你才可以让你的跷跷板容易回到平衡点。
所以,重点是这个跷跷板不是一直处于平衡状态的。一整天都会起起伏伏。最基础的是,我们要先建立第B要点所提及的条件。这也是我们现在可以在仅有的资源里做到的。
当然C和D的状况,也可以透过学自我催眠法或治疗去改善它们。记得,自律神经失调不是你的错!家人们不要怪面对身体不适问题却找不出病因的人好吗?这是发生在潜意识状态的一种大脑防御机制,不是他们故意的。
其实这只是大脑失衡了,我们可以透过调整把它改善回来的。
Hiro我希望这篇长篇大论可以帮助面对疫情所带来的自律神经失调的你得到一丝安慰。

祝福大家!

《AiFM爱生活》何为自律神经失调?如何治疗? By 马来西亚Hiro Koo



到底什麼是「自律神經」?
人體內不受大腦意識直接控制的神經系統,由交感神經與副交感神經所組成。交感神經負責興奮、代謝、戰鬥,而副交感神經負責抑制、儲存、修養等功能,交感神經與副交感神經會不斷地自主調控,以維持適當的平衡。平常不為意識所知覺的自律神經系統調節控制我們的器官,包括分泌腺、心、肺、胃、腸等等,其運作除非經過特殊訓練,當然也不受我們控制。當自律神經的活性下降,無法調節時,便稱之為自律神經失調,受自律神經調控的各個器官也會開始出現症狀。失調的自律神經就如同失去平衡的翹翹板,有可能是交感神經過度興奮,也有可能是副交感神經功能衰退。

自律神經失調有什麼症狀?
自律神經遍佈身體各個器官,因此自律神經失調的症狀千變萬化。頭暈、頭痛、口乾舌燥、心悸、容易冒汗、胸悶、噁心、肌肉緊繃、肩頸痠痛、呼吸困難、喉嚨異物感、手抖、四肢麻痺、胃脹、打嗝、便秘或腹瀉、失眠、頻尿等等,只要身體檢查沒有發現具體的病因(例如心電圖及心臟超音波檢查正常),都可能是自律神經失調所造成的。自律神經失調不僅僅是疾病的症狀,也是許多潛藏疾病的徵兆。研究顯示,自律神經失調與未來發生心血管疾病的機率及死亡率息息相關。



Newmindcentre.com治疗团队所能提供的治疗方法包括:
1.脑波反馈催眠疗法啟動副交感神經,安定身心 
副交感神經的作用在于它使心跳變慢、呼吸平穩緩慢、腸胃蠕動變快、血壓下降等,使身體主要的器官系統活動力降低,達到身體休息與睡眠的狀態。

2.Newmindcentre.com咨询师将教导您使用食物保養神經的作用穩定 
大腦中有許多神經細胞,靠神經傳導物質當「傳令兵」,幫忙傳達指令,身體各部位一收到訊息,就會有所反應。 
神經傳導物質有上百種,其中和情緒、壓力有關的包括多巴胺、正腎上腺素、血清素等。好消息是,一些食物可以增加神經傳導物質的濃度,維持神經的作用穩定,不妨適量攝取。 


3. 教导您个人化的自我催眠,从而改善睡眠质感
熬夜、睡眠不足也是自律神經的大敵。「不論一個人的自律神經原本多平衡,單單睡眠不足這一擊就足以讓他的自律神經失衡,」小林弘幸指出。 
長庚醫院腦神經外科教授張承能說,夜間本來是副交感神經發揮的時間,人自然想休息,硬是熬夜不睡、保持清醒,等於刺激交感神經繼續運作,副交感神經無從發揮,久而久之不但自律神經失調,其他的健康紅燈也一一亮起。「熬夜的人容易高血壓。」 

4.到戶外曬太陽、流汗,恢復自律神經調節體溫的能力 
流汗也是由自律神經控制,吳立偉指出,現代人長期依賴空調,身體調節體溫的功能愈來愈弱,這也是自律神經失調的原因之一。建議不要過於依賴冷暖氣,走到戶外曬曬太陽、呼吸新鮮空氣、流點汗,對調節自律神經是好事。 

5. Newmindcentre.com临床催眠师
透过观察你的五感反应来推荐适当保健品,让您可利用五感舒緩神經 
諮商心理師邱永林說,視覺、聽覺、嗅覺、味覺、觸覺等五感,都會影響自律神經,比如某人心跳的速度大約每分鐘90~100下,若想放鬆,便可聽速度比心跳慢的音樂。他解釋,這是「帶走」現象,也就是身心會受到外在環境的影響,聽了節奏慢的音樂,心跳會隨之慢下來。
氣味也有效果。 比如薄荷、洋蔥、辣椒可刺激自律神經,如果希望自己有精神,不妨聞這些味道;反之如果想放鬆,就用薰衣草等柔和的香氣,讓副交感神經活躍一些。 

6. Newmindcentre.com咨询师将教导您如何正确的发泄情緒,不讓起伏的心情打亂自律神經的節奏 
心情起伏過大,會打亂自律神經的節律。吳立偉說,情緒過於高亢(緊張、不安、興奮等)或過於低落(悲傷、沮喪、失望、鬱悶等),都會阻礙交感與副交感神經正常運作,引發失調。

【马来西亚自律神经失调调理工作坊Dealing with Dysautonomia Workshop】参加者回馈Testimonial




几年前我就对自律神经失调这个症状有深厚兴趣。有自律神经失调症状的个案确确实实感觉得到辛苦与不适感,然而却探访了许多西医后,无法查出病因;最常见的自律神经失调症状就是:
#心悸#肠胃问题#头晕头疼#呼吸困难#不知名疼痛#失眠等等

首先,这个失调症状其实并不是主流疾病,所以是没有确诊的法门的,不需要在寻寻觅觅了。

如果你有这个症状,或许更恰当的想法是把它当成为你潜意识的呼救声(在脑波检测报告中可以发现,患者Alpha波通常特别强;Alpha脑波是沟通身与心的主要桥梁)

虽然它不是病,但是延误治疗却会慢慢形成真的疾病如抑郁症与焦虑症等等。我有听闻过不少因为查无病因,身边的人又不理解(他们最常被批判的就是“心理作用”),因无法忍受痛苦而失去工作,渐渐失去生命热忱,甚至选择轻生的个案。

今次,开办的 #工作坊 环绕的主题便是【自律神经】,为大家解析相关的点滴,也会教导实践性的技巧去调节自己的状态。

有兴趣参与下一场【自律神经失调调理工作坊】的话,欢迎联络我们: 0167154419 (Whatsapp)



来听听一些出席过这个工作坊的参与者有什么话想跟大家分享:


SK:
This workshop has benefited me greatly. I experienced my emotional ups and downs and I have learnt pay more attention to my emotional management. Through the workshop I realize how emotion can affect one’s personality and behavior. It also taught me the appropriate way to release my inner feelings and emotion. As for hypnotherapy, the therapeutic voice recording (by Hiro Koo) and music has helped my mind to stay calm; I was also able to relax and fall asleep. I am very grateful toward New Mind Brain Health Centre for the workshop. I sincerely thank them.

TBK:
这个工作坊让我发现小时候的创伤而形成今天的我。是一个很好的内在探讨,深入了解自己的工作坊。我看到自己的内在小孩需要得到的父爱,陪伴,及拥抱。在催眠中也圆满了这个功课。了解到大脑对我们情绪的影响,也学到如何掌握自己的情绪。深心感觉到这工作坊是目前这动荡的社会所需要的。感谢,祝福。

Yuki:
            记得去年开始,恐慌越来越严重,已到了每天都会发作的性质。身心已开始不能再承受了。终于踏出了我的第一步去寻求治疗。感恩上天让我遇见催眠治疗师和脑电波反馈治疗法。通过这些治疗,让我感到越来越良好。也学习到如何面对恐慌症的发生,也能找到了我创伤的根源。更高兴的是,我能感觉到已遗失很久的愉快的情绪,我的笑容是真心发自内心的。
            当我出席这个“新思方程式之内在疗愈”的工作坊,很惊讶的发现原来我们大脑里的潜意识如此的奥妙,会引导我们去做出选择而面对自己当下的情绪。工作坊让我再一次看清楚自己的内心,指引着我应该走的路。
            老师的讲解与细心的教导,让我学习到如何加强自己的coping skill。当严重的恐慌发作时,我一次比一次的应对到。

Ann L:

            I had serious insomnia for years. As a result, I could not perform well in my daily life, especially at my work. At first, I tried sleeping pills. Then I relied on alcohol. Gradually, I became dependent on them which negatively affected my health. I had also tried other alternative ways to improve my sleep condition but to no avail, until I stumbled upon hypnotherapy. After a few sessions of hypnotherapy, I began to realize that I am able to sleep easier. It is truly amazing! I could not believe that hypnotherapy resolved my sleep problems which I had been suffering from for years. I can live a normal life now; I can get into sleep at night easily and wake up fresh in the morning. My energy level increased as the quality of sleep improved. Hypnotherapy is truly effective for me. I am glad that it is a natural and safe method that was able to address my condition without resorting to any medication. Even after most of my symptoms were treated, I strongly believe that hypnotherapy can also help me maintain a healthy lifestyle.

[Review] Dysautonomia Treatment in Malaysia - R.T Case


Client Name: R.T



Before starting my hypnotherapy session with Hiro, I was emotionally unstable like a time bomb that can go off anytime. I have all the symptoms of dysautonomia that Hiro showed us on a slide in a workshop.

Dysautonomia (or autonomic dysfunction) is a condition in which the autonomic nervous system (ANS) does not work properly.. My Stress Anxiety and Depression(DASS) test score was all in the SEVERE category.  I am tired all the time and no amount of sleep and nap seems to help.This has severely affected my work and family life, which both were very dear to me.

My whole family was in the wellness business but TCM , organic foods and nutrition supplements did not helped much. I started my self-help/ spiritual journey around the age 18(i'm now 35), but none of the things I learned in the past seems to help, instead they worked as a weapon as a high(almost impossible to meet) standard to judge against myself.

After struggling for about 2 months, my family members finally suggested that I seek for external help, just like a doctor cannot do operation on himself, maybe I too, have reached a point where self-helping doesn't work anymore.

Hiro created a safe environment which I was able to start sharing my situation without feeling judged and criticised. This helped tremendously because I felt like finally being understood, and that there are others that has gone through similar paths that I have, I'm not alone and I have hope to recover.

Everything I received in the sessions was personalized and customized to meet the person that I am at the moment, never did I felt I was pushed too hard or being offered something that I don't actually need. Hiro really does have a deep understanding of my situation, and has multiple ways to handle things that came up in the sessions.

I was noticing significant improved sleep quality after the 2nd week of my session. Which lead to improved emotional stability. My family members seemed to be more at ease around me instead of fearing that I would burst anytime like a bomb. Things just kept getting better and better after each session. I was getting less and less triggered by events that used to make my goes BOOOM. Every session there was something deeper that was being discovered and dealt with, each session was purposeful and meaningful, and I received clear concise action plan that I can work on before the next session. Never did I felt that time or energy was wasted during the whole 2~3 months working with Hiro and his team of well trained staff.

Today I am about 80~90% free of all the symptoms that I have prior to working with Hiro. I feel so lucky and grateful to have found Hiro and hypnotherapy, many people that did not make it in their journey and took their own life, and many more that are still struggling with guilt,grief,pain and hopelessness. Without the support of Hiro and his team, my recovery could take probably 2 years to a lifetime instead of 2~3 months.
Recovery can be speedy when we find the tools that works, Hiro and his team certainly knows how to make them not only work, but work on a personal and customized way for people like us.

I hope that my story can give you some courage and motivation to seek help from a trusted professional(such as Hiro).

什么是自律神经失调?在马来西亚如何治疗?




几年前我就对自律神经失调这个症状有深厚兴趣。有自律神
经失调症状的个案确确实实感觉得到辛苦与不适感,然而却探访了许多西医后,无法查出病因;最常见的自律神经失调症状就是:心悸、肠胃问题、头晕头疼、呼吸困难、不知名疼痛和失眠等等。

首先,这个失调症状其实并不是主流疾病,所以是没有确诊的法门的,不需要在寻寻觅觅了。如果你有这个症状,或许更恰当的想法是把它当成为你潜意识的呼救声(在脑波检测报告中可以发现,患者Alpha波通常特别强;Alpha脑波是沟通身与心的主要桥梁)。虽然它不是病,但是延误治疗却会慢慢形成真的疾病如抑郁症与焦虑症等等。我有听闻过不少因为查无病因,身边的人又不理解(他们最常被批判的就是“心理作用”),因无法忍受痛苦而失去工作,渐渐失去生命热忱,甚至选择轻生的个案。

至于检测方式;首先客户来见我前,我都会让他们先到诊所做身体检查,确认没有疾病状况。然而主流医学是无法检测出自律神经失调的(99%来见我的客户都看完了所有市面上可以进行的身体检查,99%全都查无病因才来见我的)。国外最被广泛推广来探测自律神经失调症状的就是心率检测仪。我也接触过这个检测仪器,但是给于我用以制订治疗方案的讯息是有限的。在多年探索与研究下,我发现运用脑波科技可以让我更深入了解个案的自律神经失调症状之外,也可以透过检测窥探大脑功能性问题探索出个案自律神经失调的主要疑似根源(创伤、对于疾病的过度关注、抽离现实状态、气急、失眠、压力、与其他等等因素)。

而在我临床经验中发现,不是所有自律神经失调的人都有理层面问题的。有的可以是体质问题(营养失调与重金属),有的是生活失去重心(哀伤状态),还有一类型就是个性使然(生气问题,急性子和生活不规律)。

至于疗法方案;副交感神经复健方案就是:临床催眠疗法,表达艺术治疗与创伤治疗法门。而提升交感神经的方法除了等待其自行康复外,营养咨询师进行食疗与脑波反馈疗法都可以起到事半功倍的效果。目前来说,只有客户愿意配合,成功率是非常高的,九成的客户都有非常显著的改善。

如果你在看见身边有人遇到这个查无病因的问题,不要再告诉他们:“想开点,放下,不要心理作用,要坚强点”这些话了。也不要给他们太多建议,你只会把他们越推越远而已。因为,你给的建议他们早已知道,就是做不到才痛苦的嘛

Autonomic Dysfunction Treatment Malaysia

What is the autonomic nervous system?


The autonomic nervous system (ANS) controls several basic functions, including:
  • heart rate
  • body temperature
  • breathing rate
  • digestion
  • sensation
You don’t have to think consciously about these systems for them to work. The ANS provides the connection between your brain and certain body parts, including internal organs. For instance, it connects to your heart, liver, sweat glands, skin, and even the interior muscles of your eye.
The ANS includes the sympathetic autonomic nervous system (SANS) and the parasympathetic autonomic nervous system (PANS). Most organs have nerves from both the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
The SANS usually stimulates organs. For example, it increases heart rate and blood pressure when necessary. The PANS usually slows down bodily processes. For example, it reduces heart rate and blood pressure. However, the PANS stimulates digestion and the urinary system, and the SANS slows them down.
The main responsibility of the SANS is to trigger emergency responses when necessary. These fight-or-flight responses get you ready to respond to stressful situations. The PANS conserves your energy and restores tissues for ordinary functions.

Symptoms of autonomic dysfunction

Autonomic dysfunction can affect a small part of the ANS or the entire ANS. Some symptoms that may indicate the presence of an autonomic nerve disorder include:
  • dizziness and fainting upon standing up, or orthostatic hypotension
  • an inability to alter heart rate with exercise, or exercise intolerance
  • sweating abnormalities, which could alternate between sweating too much and not sweating enough
  • digestive difficulties, such as a loss of appetite, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, or difficulty swallowing
  • urinary problems, such as difficulty starting urination, incontinence, and incomplete emptying of the bladder
  • sexual problems in men, such as difficulty with ejaculation or maintaining an erection
  • sexual problems in women, such as vaginal dryness or difficulty having an orgasm
  • vision problems, such as blurry vision or an inability of the pupils to react to light quickly
You can experience any or all of these symptoms depending on the cause, and the effects may be mild to severe. Symptoms such as tremor and muscle weakness may occur due to certain types of autonomic dysfunction.

Coping and support

Finding support to help you cope with autonomic dysfunction can be just as important for improving quality of life as managing physical symptoms.
Methods for coping and improving quality of life include the following:
  • Depression can occur with autonomic dysfunction. Therapy with a qualified counselor, therapist, or psychologist can help you cope.
  • Ask your doctor or therapist about support groups in your area. They’re available for different conditions.
  • You may find that you have more limitations than before your diagnosis. Set priorities to help you make sure you’re doing the things that are important to you.
  • Accept help and support from family and friends if you need it.
  • Ask for help if you need it.

What is Neurofeedback/EEG Biofeedback?
Neuro = brain & Feedback = information given back to you
Neurofeedback treats a variety of conditions in a safe and effective manner because it works at the subconscious level. It creates changes in the brain by creating new electrical activity through a process of measurement and reinforcement.* Quite simply, one is reinforced for changing their brain waves at a subconscious level through the use of computers. The brain learns to self-regulate, which calms the nervous system, reducing or eliminating symptoms. Without self-regulation, many problems of the central nervous system can result – Lack of Focus, Anxiety, Depression and Physical Symptoms, to name a few.* Neurofeedback is successfully used to treat ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Stress, Emotional Distress, Behavioral Issues, Mood Issues, Pain, Lyme, PANS/PANDAS, Headaches, Concussion, TBI and a variety of other issues. Almost any brain, regardless of its level of function (or dysfunction), can be trained to function better. These changes are lasting.

Therapy for Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (PoTS) in Malaysia

What is PoTS?

  • Postural          position of the body
  • Tachycardia   increased heart rate
  • Syndrome     a combination of symptoms

Postural tachycardia syndrome is an abnormality of the functioning of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system. To be diagnosed with PoTS, an individual must experience a group of symptoms in the upright position (usually standing) that are relieved by lying down. A persistent increase in heart rate of 30 beats per minute (40 bpm if under 19 years of age) should be recorded within ten minutes of standing. Blood pressure (BP) does not always drop in PoTS.
Patients can be very disabled by their symptoms.  Fortunately, for many patients, symptoms will improve with a combination of life style changes and medication.  However some will have problems over many years.
Many health care professionals do not know that PoTS exists and so may not think of the diagnosis.  If you think you may have this condition, it may help to take a printout of information from this website to your appointment.


The Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (PoTS) is an abnormality of the autonomic nervous system (sometimes called ‘dysautonomia’). The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is in charge of all bodily functions that we don’t have to think about, such as:
  • Heart rate and blood pressure regulation
  • Digestion
  • Bladder control
  • Sweating
  • Stress response
The sympathetic nervous system is part of the autonomic nervous system. It produces the ‘fight or flight’ or ‘stress’ response. When activated, a chemical called norepinephrine is released. Amongst other things, this causes an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.

The Autonomic Nervous System has two branches, the Sympathetic and the Parasympathetic, which regulate the involuntary processes of the body, the viscera, and sense organs, glands and blood vessels. In evolutionary terms it is older than the CNS and its anatomical circuitry is broadly dispersed, creating a general response, quite unlike the highly specific pathways and response of the CNS. This generalised, widely distributed structure enables it to mediate overall changes in state; it is part of the limbic system which has also been known as the mammalian or emotional brain.

When a person looks at the world, he or she is confronted with an overwhelming amount of sensory information—sights, sounds, smells, and so on. After being processed in the brain's sensory areas, the information is relayed to the amygdala, which acts as a portal to the emotion-regulating limbic system. Using input from the individual's stored knowledge, the amygdala determines how the person should respond emotionally—for example, with fear (at the sight of a burglar), lust (on seeing a lover) or indifference (when facing something trivial). Messages cascade from the amygdala to the rest of the limbic system and eventually reach the autonomic nervous system, which prepares the body for action. If the person is confronting a burglar, for example, his heart rate will rise and his body will sweat to dissipate the heat from muscular exertion. The autonomic arousal, in turn, feeds back into the brain, amplifying the emotional response. Over time, the amygdala creates a salience landscape, a map that details the emotional significance of everything in the individual's environment.

Recent brain research indicates that it is possible to talk to the amygdala, a key part of the brain that deals with certain emotions. The inner mind is concerned with emotion, imagination and memory as well as the autonomic nervous system which automatically controls our internal organs. By talking to the amygdala, an experienced clinical hypnotherapist can relax the autonomic nervous system shutting down, or curtailing the trigger that sets off secretion of the adrenal and pituitary glands. This gives the body an opportunity to rebuild its immune system in many chronic illnesses. 
By using the technique of neuro-hypnotherapy Malaysia, we can peek into the brain region which associated with the regulation of amygdala now. It is safe, painless, non-invasive and no side effect.


"The mind is like an onion. The outer layer, or conscious mind, deals with intelligence, reality, and logic. The inner mind is concerned with emotion, imagination, and memory, as well as the autonomic nervous system which automatically controls our internal organs (i.e., how we breathe, send oxygen to our blood cells, or walk without using the conscious mind.) The internal mind is on autopilot, reacting to the dictates of the pleasure principle. It seeks pleasure and avoids pain" (Warren, 2003, pp. 175-6).
It is these characteristics that make hypnosis a highly effective therapeutic tool in dealing with a wide spectrum of mental and physical disorders. When a clinical hypnotherapist is doing hypnosis, the amygdala is turned down. The clinical hypnotherapist can actually relax the autonomic nervous system, shutting down the usual "fight, flight, or freeze" response and curtailing the trigger that sets off secretion of the pituitary and adrenal glands. This gives the body a chance to build up its immune system and reduce trauma (Frank and Mooney, 2002) in many chronic illnesses (i.e., irritable syndrome, bulimia, cancer, high blood pressure, and Parkinson's disease.) Even the Wall Street Journal (Friedman, 2003) has documented how hypnosis has entered the mainstream and is using trance states for fractures, cancer, and burns and speeding recovery time.
