ABSTRACT
Occupational therapy carries the potential to enhance health-related quality of life for individuals with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). This case report reflects on the benefits of occupational therapy for an individual with POTS and details the approaches to interventions. Restoring this client's ability to participate in valued activities and desired roles while learning mind-body practices through strategic interventions led to definitive results. Cultivating mind-body practices contributed to enhanced awareness, intentional changes, and thoughtful responses to symptoms. Developing these skills had a positive impact on occupational performance, satisfaction, enjoyment, perception of well-being, and health-related quality of life.
