Are you looking to solve Dyautonomias and don’t know where to start? Curious about the Functional Neurology approach to those conditions? Let the Dysautonomia Bootcamp serve as your jumpstart into that journey!
Often misunderstood and misdiagnosed, Dysautonomia has historically been a challenging set of conditions for clinicians and their patients… until now! Dysautonomia Bootcamp serves to quickly get you up to speed and demystify those set of conditions, along with a special focus on postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Learn diagnosis, pathophysiology, examination skills and a novel treatment approach to solving what once was a challenging set of conditions.
