Multidisciplinary POTS & Dysautonomia Clinic
Comprehensive Assessment and Care for POTS and other types of Dysautonomia
Comprehensive Assessment and Care for POTS and Other Types of Dysautonomia
At Integral Healthcare, we provide comprehensive, evidence-informed assessment and management for people living with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and other forms of dysautonomia (dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system).
Dysautonomia is an umbrella term used to describe disorders of the autonomic nervous system - the system responsible for regulating many automatic body functions including heart rate, blood pressure, temperature regulation, digestion and sweating. These conditions can significantly impact quality of life and often involve complex, multi-system symptoms.
POTS is the most common form of dysautonomia. It is characterised by an abnormal increase in heart rate upon standing and may be associated with symptoms including dizziness, palpitations, fatigue, exercise intolerance, brain fog, nausea, headaches and feeling faint or fainting.
At Integral Healthcare, we understand that POTS and dysautonomia require a holistic and multidisciplinary approach. Our clinic has been designed to provide patients with coordinated care pathways, comprehensive autonomic assessment and personalised management strategies.

Our Multidisciplinary Care Pathway
➜ Diagnostic Testing
Your journey with Integral Healthcare begins with our experienced cardiac and autonomic technicians, who undertake a comprehensive suite of autonomic and cardiovascular investigations tailored to your symptoms and clinical needs.
Testing includes:
Active Stand Testing or Head Up Tilt Table Testing
Sweat Function Testing
Holter Monitoring
Echocardiography
Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring
These investigations assist in identifying autonomic dysfunction types and help guide appropriate management pathways.
➜ Nursing Assessment
Following testing, patients are reviewed by our expert nursing team for a comprehensive clinical assessment, education and initial management planning. Our nurses work closely with patients to better understand symptom burden, functional impact and lifestyle factors contributing to autonomic nervous system function.
➜ Medical Specialist Review
Patients are then supported through appropriate medical review pathways with our experienced General Practitioner or Cardiologists with expertise in autonomic disorders and complex chronic conditions.
➜ Allied Health Support
Where appropriate, referrals can also be made to our team’s allied health care professionals including:
Dietitian
Exercise Physiologists
➜ Coordinated Care
This collaborative model ensures patients receive coordinated, individualised care that addresses the broad impacts of POTS and dysautonomia on daily life, physical function and wellbeing.
We recognise that living with POTS and dysautonomia can be challenging, particularly when symptoms are invisible, fluctuating or difficult to diagnose. Our team is committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care in a supportive environment that empowers patients through education, validation and practical management strategies.
Our goal is to help patients improve function, build confidence in symptom management and optimise quality of life through a structured and holistic model of care.
