In short: A short test that measures heart-rate variability and autonomic balance to assess stress, fatigue and dizziness linked to chronic pain.
What is Autonomic Nervous System and Stress Test?
Chronic pain and stress affect the autonomic nervous system, which controls heart rate, sleep and digestion. This test measures heart-rate variability to show the balance between the sympathetic ('fight or flight') and parasympathetic ('rest and digest') systems, helping explain fatigue, poor sleep, palpitations or dizziness.
