From what I understand about POTS, it seems to occur in conjunction 
with chronic fatigue syndrome. I have read a lot about CFS and the most 
effective treatments seem to involve a combination of nutritional, 
structural and other holistic therapies. If this is caused by medical 
intervention of other birth trauma, I would think the bodywork would be 
sufficient, but if this is an ongoing problem, I would absolutely 
include nutritional evaluation. I would encourage the mom to have 
cranial-sacral therapy, integrated manual therapy or similar bodywork, 
as well as seeing a nutritionist who is very competent in holistic 
practices if it also seems indicated. The best treatments I know for 
dysfunction of the nervous system, especially caused by injury are 
neuro-muscular, as I mentioned above, but I bet acupuncture would also 
be beneficial.

  As always, this is not a breastfeeding problem--it is a condition that 
a mother who happens to be breastfeeding happens to have.
