Is Gravity Pulling YOU Down? If you have P.O.T.S it could be doing just that!!

P.O.T.S stands for Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. The simple act of standing up can be a challenge for some people. P.O.T.S. affects the body's ability to appropriately adjust to the pull of gravity. When the body cannot effectively adjust to upright posture, a person is said to have orthostatic intolerance. The symptoms of P.O.T.S. are life altering and debilitating at times. P.O.T.S. patients use about three times more energy to stand than a healthy person.
