The Real Reason You're Not Getting Better After Injury

Dr. Joseph Schneider reveals what actually happens inside your brain after trauma and why most people never fully recover. When your brain suffers injury, it triggers an inflammatory storm that rewires your entire nervous system, often leaving you with a "new normal" of chronic pain, cognitive issues, and fatigue. Most patients end up managing symptoms with bags of supplements or multiple medications instead of addressing the root cause. Dr. Schneider explains how brain trauma creates a cascade of dysfunction affecting everything from digestion to decision-making, and why traditional segmented care fails to restore proper function. He shares a case study of a patient who went from severe movement disorders to playing basketball again using targeted neurological rehabilitation. Instead of accepting diminished capacity, learn how precision diagnostics and brain-specific therapy can help you function at full capacity again. This episode challenges everything you think you know about brain injury recovery.

Healthy People Have Down-Regulated Vestibular Systems and Never Know It

Dr. Joseph Schneider and Jerome Rerucha discuss massive vestibular down-regulation in non-symptomatic populations who never realize their balance systems operate far below capability. In this conversation on My POTS Podcast, Jerome reveals how vestibular down-regulation affects even healthy people when comparing average populations against figure skaters, gymnasts, and divers demonstrating superhuman vestibular function through triple axels and complex rotations. The vestibular system develops at 5 weeks after conception, before eyes and ears exist, yet remains the greatest untested gap despite controlling cardiovascular health, mood, and immune function beyond basic balance. Dr. Schneider explains the four-grid assessment requiring visual, auditory, proprioceptive, and vestibular alignment since each grid independently affects autonomic function. Gyrostim reveals hidden dysfunction when cognitive tasks spike symptoms from zero dizziness to level six nausea. The conversation covers Dr. Schneider's 13-year POTS struggle after an auto accident and engineering background designing power plant simulators before discovering chiropractic. Discover four-grid neurological assessment and Gyrostim technology, listen to the full episode on My POTS Podcast, and visit HopeBrainCenter.com. Understanding that healthy people have massively down-regulated vestibular systems compared to the capability changes everything about preventing future dysfunction before symptoms force attention.

Finding Your “Do” Balance With POTS When Exercise Intolerance Limits Daily Function

Dr. Joseph Schneider delivers a New Year’s Eve solo episode on finding the precise activity balance people with POTS and dysautonomia need between under doing, which leads to atrophy, and overdoing, which triggers crashes. In this episode of My POTS Podcast, Dr. Schneider draws on his background in engineering physics and power plant control systems to explain how autonomic regulation depends on precise calibration. He explains why many POTS patients rely on rib breathing instead of diaphragmatic breathing controlled by the phrenic nerve at C2–C4, contributing to neck dystonia and joint hyper mobility, and how exercise combined with oxygen exposure can help retrain these patterns. Using a marathon training analogy, Dr. Schneider outlines why POTS rehabilitation often requires six months to two years of gradual stress increases so systems adapt without breaking down. He also discusses vital scan testing, which measures heart rate variability during rapid breathing to assess sympathetic and parasympathetic balance. The New Year message centers on finding your personal “Do” level, where metabolic function supports efficient energy production without excessive oxidative stress or reliance on supplements. To learn more about exercise progression, diaphragmatic breathing retraining, and comprehensive dysautonomia rehabilitation, listen to the full episode on My POTS Podcast and visit HopeBrainCenter.com. Understanding the need for autonomic balance can reshape how achievable recovery goals are set for POTS and orthostatic intolerance.
