Our motto: "A Spoonful of Strength"
We offer specialized care for Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and other forms of Dysautonomia.
Work with specialty trained providers for POTS/Dysautonomia!
As a provider who also lives with POTS herself, Dr. Kendra brings an abundance of personal experience and helpful tips and tricks to each client. This comprehensive approach focuses on movement, education, nervous system regulation, and heart-rate variability (HRV) training to help you create sustainable lifestyle changes to optimize your daily function.
Is This a POTS Clinic or a Wellness Program?
While Mermaid Well® is not a traditional POTS clinic, our POTS/Dysautonomia Support Program offers a comprehensive, integrative approach to care. We focus on nervous system regulation, exercise training, and holistic wellness strategies.
Our licensed providers offer guidance with clinical insight and personal experience managing Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. Many clients come to us seeking an alternative or complement to traditional POTS specialists and appreciate our emphasis on sustainable lifestyle changes and education.
Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been managing symptoms for years, this program is designed to meet you where you are.
Can Occupational or Physical Therapy Help with POTS?
Yes, especially when it’s tailored to the unique needs of patients with POTS and dysautonomia. Our program incorporates elements of physical therapy and occupational therapy principles, including graded exercise, mobility support, and pacing strategies to help you rebuild tolerance safely.
Sessions may include guidance on:
- Safe aerobic and resistance training (recumbent bike)
- Pool-based movement (aquatic therapy)
- Orthostatic training and posture support
