Dysautonomia often appears invisible, but it has a significant impact on daily life. < Back October is Dysautonomia Awareness Month 8 Oct 2025 Dysautonomia often appears invisible, but it has a significant impact on daily life. October is Dysautonomia Awareness Month. Many people with ME/CFS also live with Dysautonomia.  Dysautonomia is an umbrella term for a number of conditions that affect the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS controls functions our bodies should regulate automatically, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion. Some of the Dysautonomia conditions are: Orthostatic Intolerance (OI), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia (IST), Neurocardiogenic Syncope (NCS) / Vasovagal Syncope, Orthostatic Hypotension, Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), Familial Dysautonomia and Pure Autonomic Failure (PAF). This can mean: Rapid heart rate when standing  Problems with temperature regulation Needing to sit or lie down to avoid fainting, headaches, nausea and other symptoms Feeling worse in the heat Needing to pace carefully to avoid crashes Dysautonomia often appears invisible, but it has a significant impact on daily life. Raising awareness is the first step to better recognition, care, and support. MANAGEMENT APPROACHES: OI symptoms are one of the most treatable symptoms associated with ME/CFS and it is usually possible to increase functional capacity through the following management approaches: Increase blood volume by drinking water and consuming more sodium (if safe for you to do so). Provide mechanical support by using compression garments and postural counter manoeuvres (movement that moves the blood up the legs to the heart). Make lifestyle adjustments such as avoiding overheating, alcohol, large meals. Introduce movement or gentle exercise done in a lying down or recumbent position first. #DysautonomiaAwareness #MECFS #InvisibleIllness #POTS ___________________________ FURTHER READING: To find out more, we recommend: https://www.dysautonomiainternational.org Recording of our OI Presentation https://youtu.be/HSj8zcK7XK0?si=dgvFt_RuzUHcYhRI https://www.cdc.gov/me-cfs/media/pdfs/2025/06/CDC-Dysauto-MECFS-Dec-4-2024-Alt-Text-Final.pdf https://healthify.nz/health-a-z/p/postural-orthostatic-tachycardia-syndrome-pots ME/CFS Canterbury West Coast Disclaimer Previous Next

The main management approach for ME/CFS is reducing your activity to a level that can be sustained and that avoids triggering Post-Exertional Malaise (PEM). We provide some guidance on activity management and pacing here. Activity Management The main management approach for ME/CFS is reducing your activity to a level that can be sustained and that avoids triggering Post-Exertional Malaise (PEM). Post-exertional Malaise (PEM) is a core symptom of ME/CFS and it is an abnormal response to normal activity. It is a disproportionate and prolonged increase in symptoms. PEM makes us sicker and makes it harder to function and participate in our daily life. PEM can be triggered by various kinds of activity - physical, mental, emotional, orthostatic (moving to an upright position), sensory overload, multi-tasking, and physiological processes (temperature regulation, digestion). PEM often occurs hours or days after the triggering activity. Activity management is key to minimising PEM and to stabilising symptom severity. Adopt the ‘Stop, Rest, Pace.’ approach and practice pacing as your commitments allow. We provide more detailed information below. Pacing Pacing helps us avoid triggering PEM. Pacing means adjusting your life to stay within your 'Energy Envelope' as much as possible. Pacing involves: Prioritising what to spend energy on - and choosing which activities to reduce or drop altogether (this may include making life-changing decisions such as reducing employment, retiring, or dropping out of education). Changing the way chosen activities are done so they require less energy (this may include use of mobility aids). Breaking activities down into short bursts. Interspersing activity with rest (physical, cognitive & sensory rest - including rest from screens). Aiming for a balance of necessary activities and pleasurable activities. Creating (usually) safe and energy-efficient routines for regular necessary tasks (this helps reduce cognitive load). Stopping before symptoms increase and taking pre-emptive rest (some patients experience subtle cues when getting close to exceeding their Energy Envelope but many don't so they need to be proactive). Pacing sounds simple but it is not easy to put into practice, and it is individual to you. Be kind to yourself as you cope with daily demands and as you learn about your energy envelope. When exploring what you can manage, it can be useful to keep an 'activity and symptom diary' for a few weeks to see if you can identify any patterns, early warning signs and triggers which could help to reduce PEM episodes. You might find our diary template useful to do this. Wearable Biometric Devices: Some people find using a wearable activity tracker helpful for completing their activity diary, and for keeping steps or heart rate under a certain level. Although a tracker does not measure cognitive or emotional activity, it can help you recognise activities and tasks where your heart is elevated (meaning you are using more energy or under more stress). A good basic activity tracker is the Xiaomi Smart Band and we have some of these available for loan. The Polar H10 HR strap is recommended if you wish to monitor Heart Rate Variability. Further reading: To find out more about pacing, we recommend these resources from Emerge Australia : Introduction to the 'Stop.Rest.Pace ' approach. Two-page Pacing handout which provides a 4-step approach. Five-page handout on Pacing with a Heart Rate Monitor to help determine your anaerobic threshold and energy envelope. ME Support - NZ also has an eight-page Basics of Pacing handout in their Long Covid Support Tool . We also recommend these resources from M.E. Awareness NZ: An Explanation of PEM for people with ME article The Art and Science of Pacing for ME article Articles about Heart Rate Variability: One-page HRV handout from Bateman Horne Centre What is Heart Rate Variability? , Elite HRV Lifehacks for ME/CFS Visit our Lifehacks section for some tips and tricks for managing your daily activities. Practical Supports Visit our Practical Supports section for some other ideas for finding easier ways to do things, so that you can more often live within your energy envelope. Suggestions include using mobility aids and energy saving approaches. Safely exploring exercise When you live with a broken energy system, you need to a pproach exercise as ‘movement’ for your health and wellbeing, rather than ‘exercise’ to improve fitness. We have a few presentations on this topic that you may wish to watch: Safely exploring 'exercise' or movement when you have ME/CFS Rachel Sullivan, Clinical Exercise Physiologist, covers the dangers and recommendations. Analeptic restorative activity in ME/CFS Catherine George, Physiotherapist, explains how to improve functional strength and flexibility. The following organisations provide guidance for safe exercise: Physios for ME (UK-based) Workwell Foundation ( USA)

We are delighted to announce that physiotherapists who have access to the Allied Healthways website provided by the CDHB now have appropriate advice available in the PhysioFITT guidance for ME/CFS. < Back New guidance from CDHB for physiotherapists 25 Jun 2021 We are delighted to announce that physiotherapists who have access to the Allied Healthways website provided by the CDHB now have appropriate advice available in the PhysioFITT guidance for ME/CFS. We are grateful to the clinical editors from the Canterbury District Health Board who have worked with us recently to provide up-to-date guidance about ME/CFS for physiotherapists working with the PhysioFITT programme. This new guidance is available on the CDHB's Allied Healthways online platform, and will help health professionals to be aware of current understanding of this debilitating illness, and the need to move away from prior advice that is no longer recommended. Under the PhysioFITT program, physiotherapists assess the clinical context of the patient and deliver a tailored assessment and activity plan appropriate to their health condition(s). Key points made for ME/CFS clients: Avoid exercise tests that may trigger post-exertional malaise (PEM). Check for Orthostatic Intolerance. Graded Exercise Therapy (GET) is not recommended for ME/CFS. Exercise should be used for physical maintenance (core strength, bone density and enjoyment) and be at a level to avoid post-exertional malaise (PEM). If PEM is experienced frequently, consider reducing rather than increasing activity in order to improve overall wellbeing. It may be more helpful to focus on daily activities than formal exercise.
