My experience with VILPA exercise
Hi, all - Several months ago I posted in this sub about VILPA (https://www.reddit.com/r/dysautonomia/s/sqtmoDvJNd).
I continue to be surprised by how well I tolerate these brief “exercise snacks.” These days I’m also recovering more easily. When I first started, 30 seconds of moderate to high intensity movement would incapacitate me afterwards - couldn’t do much until my blood pressure stabilized. After doing this for about six months, I’ve gotten to the point where (on a good day) I can do 1 to 2 minutes and still be functional afterward.
Anyone else doing VILPA? Or have suggestions for other exercises that are tolerable by people with severe dysautonomia?
