The Neurological Revolution: Innovative Approaches to POTS & Complex Health Challenges

In this reunion episode, chiropractic classmates Dr. Joseph Schneider and Dr. Mark Sanna reflect on their educational journey before diving into the complex world of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) treatment. Dr. Schneider explains how patients with POTS face cascading symptoms affecting multiple body systems, leaving them frustrated after visiting major medical institutions with six-month waiting lists and limited treatment approaches. The conversation highlights how functional neurology and brain scanning technologies can identify inflammation patterns in the brain, especially common in post-COVID patients. They discuss the importance of patient education and the value of giving patients all-inclusive information about their condition rather than oversimplifying. Dr. Schneider also shares his personal health journey that led him to open the Hope Regenerative Medicine Center, which integrates various disciplines including peptide therapies to address complex neurological conditions from POTS to cerebral palsy.

Two Patients, Two Impossible Recoveries: What 37 Years of Practice Taught Me About Hope

Dr. Joseph Schneider reflects on attending the wedding of a former patient who suffered a devastating hockey concussion in eighth grade, losing 18 months of his life to chronic migraines, fatigue, and medical disbelief. This celebration triggered memories of another remarkable case: a college ROTC student with severe amnesia who couldn't remember his own brothers after a car accident. Both patients were written off by conventional medicine, yet both went on to build successful lives through comprehensive functional neurology treatment. Dr. Schneider explains why segmented care approaches fail in complex brain injury cases and how his integrated functional neurology and functional medicine protocols address the full spectrum of neurological dysfunction. He discusses the critical role of autonomic nervous system rehabilitation in treating Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and dysautonomia, and why addressing both neuroinflammation and neuroplasticity simultaneously produces lasting results. Drawing from decades of experience treating thousands of complex cases, Dr. Schneider explores the difference between surviving and thriving after brain injury, offering hope to patients currently struggling with conditions that mainstream medicine considers permanent. This episode provides insight into the comprehensive approach needed for true neurological recovery and the life-changing potential of functional medicine.

Why POTS Misdiagnosis as Functional Neurological Disorder is Destroying Lives

In this episode of the My POTS Podcast, Two veteran functional neurologists expose the dangerous trend of POTS misdiagnosis as functional neurological disorder (FND) that's leaving patients without proper treatment. Medical research on Frontiers, confirms that many patients with autonomic disorders are frequently misdiagnosed with FND, making it difficult to obtain further diagnostic and therapeutic care. Dr. Joseph Schneider and Dr. Adam Klotzek reveals why POTS patients are being labeled with psychological disorders when they actually have measurable neurological dysfunction from brain injuries. They discuss shocking cases, including a 26-year-old pilot whose hands leak water like faucets after car accidents, yet doctors diagnosed him with functional neurological disorder instead of treating his obvious brain trauma. The conversation exposes why traditional cardiology approaches miss the central nervous system dysfunction driving POTS symptoms and demonstrates how targeted cerebellar therapy can reduce severe autonomic symptoms by 50% in a single session. This episode challenges the psychiatric labeling of POTS patients and reveals the real neurological causes behind heat intolerance, exercise intolerance, and autonomic dysfunction.

Chicken and Broccoli: How the Keto Diet Healed My Brain After 4 Traumas

After surviving four traumatic brain injuries including a windshield impact, drunk driver collision, tubing accident, and hemorrhagic stroke with an aneurysm rupture, Dr. Joseph Schneider discovered the ketogenic diet protocol that triggered autophagy and cleared the hemorrhagic scab from his brain in just four months. In this deeply personal episode of the My POTS Podcast, Dr. Schneider reveals how the Zone diet's 40-30-30 macro-nutrient balance at a 2005 Barry Sears seminar in Boston became his roadmap to neurological recovery after years of severe sleep apnea, dysautonomia, and dangerous blood pressure spikes following his 2004 accident. Dr. Schneider explains why pasture-raised meats provide optimal omega-3 fatty acid balance, how autophagy cleared brain debris conventional medicine said was permanent, and why Wharton's jelly stem cell therapy finally enabled daily exercise eight years post-stroke. He shares the comprehensive approach combining ketogenic nutrition, interactive metronome therapy, CPAP for sleep apnea management, and faith-based daily commitment that transformed him from barely functioning to running one of the world's premier brain injury recovery centers. This New Year episode challenges the glucose-dependent model of brain metabolism and offers hope for anyone told their brain damage is irreversible. To learn more about ketogenic diet protocols for brain injury recovery and comprehensive neurological rehabilitation, listen to the full episode on My POTS Podcast and visit HopeBrainCenter.com. Understanding how macro-nutrient balance and ketone metabolism support brain healing changes everything about recovery from traumatic brain injury and stroke.

The Muscle Brain Connection Missing From Most POTS Treatment

Back-to-school season brings a surge of students struggling with concussions, POTS, and chronic fatigue that's keeping them out of classrooms and off sports fields. In this episode of My POTS Podcast, host Dr. Schneider reveals why muscle weakness isn't just a symptom but the key to understanding why recovery stalls for so many patients with dysautonomia and brain injuries. Your musculoskeletal system is actually your body's largest organ system, producing powerful signaling molecules called myokines that communicate directly with your brain, immune system, and every major organ. When muscles stop working properly due to chronic fatigue or injury, this entire communication network breaks down, creating a cascade of dysfunction affecting memory, metabolism, and healing capacity. Students and athletes who maintain even basic exercise routines recover faster and more completely than those who become sedentary. This episode explains how targeted movement therapy can double the size of your hippocampus, stimulate brain-derived neurotrophic factors, and restart the natural healing processes that medications alone cannot achieve.
