SYMPTOMS
dysautonomiais a state in which the balance of the autonomic nervous system, which regulates heartbeat, breathing, digestion, and body temperature, is disrupted. If palpitations, dizziness, anxiety, insomnia, and chronic fatigue recur for no reason, check the balance of your autonomic nervous system first.
My heart is pounding even when I am at rest.
I often feel like I'm spinning when I stand up.
Even when I sleep, I don't feel refreshed.
I have trouble falling asleep or I wake up often.
I have recurring headaches with no known cause.
I feel anxious and frustrated for no reason.
I have symptoms of cold and numb hands and feet.
I feel bloated and uncomfortable after eating.
I feel dizzy and can't concentrate.
I feel short of breath and have difficulty taking deep breaths.
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
The autonomic nervous system regulates functions without you being conscious of it, such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, body temperature, and sleep.It's not that one is better than the other, but the ability to switch between the two functions to suit the situation is important.
SYMPATHETIC
ACTIVITY MODE
The moment when activity, concentration, and crisis response are needed,Get ready to move quickly by increasing your heart rate and breathing.
PARASYMPATHETIC
RECOVERY MODE
As soon as you can rest, slow down your body,Helps digestion, sleep, and energy recovery.
SELF CHECK
Within the last 3 months, please check all of the following items that apply.
The items you check will be delivered together when you apply for consultation, so you can receive customized guidance right from the first call.
CAUSES
It is rare for there to be only one cause, and it is often caused by multiple causes overlapping.
The more the factors below overlap, the more likely it is that your autonomic nervous system will be shaken.
Long-lasting stress overloads the sympathetic nervous system and reduces the recovery capacity of the parasympathetic nervous system.
When you sleep, your parasympathetic nerves turn on and your body recovers. Lack of sleep can upset your autonomic balance.
Spinal problems such as turtle neck and cervical deformity can irritate the autonomic nerve pathways that run along the cervical spine.
Hormonal fluctuations such as menopause, menstrual cycle, and changes in thyroid function can also affect the autonomic nervous system.
After a car accident, fall, or major psychological trauma, the autonomic nervous system becomes hypersensitive and symptoms may linger for a long time.
Shallow and rapid breathing without realizing it can cause dizziness, numbness, and anxiety to worsen.
Tension/arousal mode lasts for a long time
Delayed transition to rest/recovery mode

DIAGNOSIS
Autonomic abnormalities are not easily revealed through general tests alone.
Osang Neurosurgery operates six tests that measure quantitatively.
01Autonomic Nervous System Tests
02Autonomic Nervous System Tests
03Autonomic Nervous System Tests
04brain function test
05body temperature analysis
06blood analysis
Test items may only be partially selected depending on symptoms and medical history. After consultation with a specialist, the tests required for the patient will be determined, and the cost for each item will be announced during the consultation.
TREATMENT
Rather than determining dysautonomia in one way,
An approach is needed to identify both structural causes and functional imbalances.
OSANG Neurosurgery Neurosurgeons, neurologists, and anesthesiology and pain medicine specialists provide care togetherI do. Structural causes, such as the cervical and thoracic spine, and functional causes, such as autonomic nervous imbalance, are both examined, and treatment direction is determined based on the test results.
This is a treatment protocol aimed at stabilizing the overly elevated sympathetic nervous system and restoring the function of the parasympathetic nervous system (vagus nerve).

It also checks daily factors such as sleep, breathing, exercise, and posture. Response to treatment is greatly influenced by lifestyle patterns.
BEST DOCTORS
Since 2015, Osang Neurosurgery Clinic has provided the best service to patients based on data from approximately 50,000 autonomic nerve & regenerative medicine clinical and treatment cases. We will be a strong support for you to return to your precious daily life.
The duration of treatment depends on the type of symptom, degree of chronicity, and cause. We check the progress through accurate diagnosis, systematic treatment, and improvement of lifestyle habits.

FAQ
Dysautonomia is a condition in which the autonomic nervous system, which is responsible for the body's automatic functions such as heartbeat, breathing, digestion, and temperature regulation, malfunctions. As the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems is disrupted, unexplained palpitations, dizziness, anxiety, insomnia, and chronic fatigue may occur repeatedly.
It's not the same. Panic disorder is a type of anxiety disorder characterized by acute attacks accompanied by extreme fear, and dysautonomia is a condition in which the overall balance of the autonomic nervous system is lost. However, differential diagnosis is important because autonomic imbalance can feel like panic symptoms.
General blood tests, electrocardiograms, and endoscopy are tests that check for structural abnormalities in organs. Functional abnormalities of the autonomic nervous system may not be detected by these tests. An imbalance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves can be confirmed through autonomic function tests such as HRV testing.
Dysautonomia can be treated in neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry. At Osang Neurosurgery, neurosurgeons and neurologists work together to examine structural causes such as the cervical and thoracic spine as well as autonomic nerve dysfunction.
Dysautonomia treatment first identifies the cause of the symptoms and accompanying diseases, and then combines lifestyle adjustments such as sleep, hydration, and exercise, as well as necessary medications or non-surgical treatments, according to the patient's condition. The same treatment is not applied to all patients, and treatment plans vary depending on examination and test results.
It depends on the type of symptom, degree of chronicity, and cause. In general, observation and treatment over a certain period of time may be necessary, and responses are confirmed through accurate diagnosis, systematic treatment, and lifestyle improvement.
Basic tests and consultations required for diagnosis may be covered by health insurance. Some programs and test items may be non-covered, so detailed costs can be checked through the non-covered information page or through consultation.
