Build Crash Recovery Strategies That Support POTS Self-Care

When a crash or flare does occur, you need more than rest; you need a recovery plan that fits your body and your life. We will create a gentle, personalized protocol that supports your nervous system without adding pressure. Whether you are dealing with syncope, heart palpitations, GI distress, temperature dysregulation, or complete physical exhaustion, you will have tools in place to help you stabilize and recover at your own pace.

From hydration and electrolyte balance to emotional grounding and practical adjustments to your schedule, these sessions give you a trusted path forward when everything feels out of sync.

Prevent Flares Through Better Pacing and Supportive Therapy

Pacing is not about doing less; it is about learning to move through your day in a way that protects your energy and builds resilience over time. Together, we will fine-tune your pacing strategy based on your activity tolerance, symptom triggers, and lifestyle goals.

This process may include identifying your green, yellow, and red days, understanding how to plan around variable energy levels, and building structure into your rest and recovery. These tools are part of a larger framework of supportive therapy that helps reduce the intensity and frequency of flares without restricting your life.

Her compassionate, evidence-informed coaching is tailored to your real-world needs.
