While most healthcare providers measure blood pressure only in a sitting position, changes in body posture are also important. Based on research, it appears that a change in posture causes physiological changes in the human body. These changes are also reflected in brain function. Through autonomic testing, we also measure these changes.<\/p>\n

How does autonomic feature testing work?<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Open Sans|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”2em” header_3_font=”PT Serif|700|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_3_font_size=”27px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” header_4_font=”Open Sans|700|||||||” header_4_text_color=”#4a3ec5″ header_4_font_size=”17px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The autonomic nervous system, is traditionally divided into the sympathetic (SNS) and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). Both are responsible for regulating and integrating the functions of internal organs. In particular, the SNS plays a key factor in the control of blood pressure via specialised receptors. These receptors are called baroreceptors and chemoreceptors.<\/p>\n

During postural changes, such as from a supine to a sitting or standing position, feedback loops increase ‘firing’ to sympathetic nerves. This changes blood pressure. With autonomic testing, we measure this.<\/p>\n

Even more specifically, we can associate various body positions and blood pressure regulation with the vestibular system. The vestibular system is located in the inner ear and is mainly associated with balance, equilibrium, orientation and navigation. All this is done through the vestibulo-Sympathetic Reflex (VSR) .<\/p>\n

The VSR reflex is especially important in preventing a drop in blood pressure by allowing the organs of the vestibular system (otoliths and semicircular canals) to perceive movement in the area of gravity within milliseconds. This activates the VSR for the cardiovascular system, with the ultimate goal of maintaining stable blood pressure during position change.<\/p>\n

The Vestibular System – because of its influence on balance and navigation – also has connections to brain regions such as frontal lobes (executive planning\/motor planning), cerebellum (fine\/coordinated movements) and the posterior parietal cortex (spatial orientation).<\/p>\n

Therefore, it makes sense that dysfunction in these reflex, feedback loop or association\/integration areas could have a significant difference in blood pressure. This may result in symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, fainting, or lead to cognitive difficulties and impaired concentration.<\/p>\n
