Measurement Notes: HRV, Impedance, Elastography
A guide to the objective proxies used in VEA assessment.
Condition Cluster
Autonomic Dysregulation
Conditions involving imbalance in sympathetic and parasympathetic control systems.
Autonomic dysregulation reflects imbalance between sympathetic and parasympathetic control. VEA seeks to stabilize baseline regulation and improve adaptive capacity.
We target regulation nodes that influence vagal tone and systemic coherence.
Common examples
- • Dysautonomia
- • POTS
- • Vagal tone imbalance
Common signals
- • Orthostatic intolerance or POTS-like patterns
- • Temperature or HRV swings
- • Non-restorative sleep
Measurement focus
- • HRV baseline and recovery
- • Resting heart rate stability
- • Symptom variability across days
Stability first
We focus on reducing systemic noise and supporting baseline regulation so the body can maintain homeostasis under stress.
Coherence across systems
Treatments target synchronized rhythms across autonomic, fascial, and neural systems to improve efficiency and recovery.
Signal transmission
We look for transmission loss and bottlenecks that degrade the body's ability to regulate and adapt.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as POTS?
POTS is one pattern; this cluster includes broader autonomic imbalance.
What changes indicate improvement?
More stable baselines and fewer extreme swings in daily regulation.
Can this be combined with medical care?
Yes, VEA is meant to complement standard care.
