Notas del episodio

For two years, Hannah struggled with debilitating dizziness, headaches, weakness, anxiety, breathing difficulties, and symptoms that made everyday life nearly impossible.

After giving birth to her second child, this former college athlete and physical therapist found herself searching for answers. She underwent numerous medical evaluations, received several possible diagnoses, and was eventually diagnosed with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome).

At her first consultation with Dr. Caleb Slater, she couldn't even sit upright for 30 minutes without needing to lie down.

Three and a half months later, her life looked dramatically different.

In this episode of The Spinal Truth Show, Hannah and her husband share their experience navigating the medical system, the treatments they tried, and how a different approach focused on spinal movement and rehabilitation became part of her recovery.

We discuss:

  • The unusual symptoms that began after childbirth

  • Her POTS diagnosis and the search for answers

  • Why previous treatments weren't providing lasting improvement

  • The role of the neck and thoracic spine in Dr. Slater's assessment

  • How Hannah approached movement, exercise, and rebuilding strength

  • The physical and emotional challenges of living with unexplained symptoms

  • What changed during three months of treatment

If you've been struggling with symptoms that don't seem to fit together, this conversation offers a different perspective on the importance of a thorough evaluation and finding treatment that produces meaningful improvement.
