The Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is an assessment tool that is utilized to accurately, and quantitatively, assess the present status of the autonomic nervous system, as well as the regulatory capacity of the client.  The HRV, is a computerized system with a heart rate monitor. It is a noninvasive procedure which measures the heart rate throughout the examination, evaluating Heart Rate Variability. Based on these findings, a quantitative assessment of the Autonomic Nervous System can be formed. 
​
The Autonomic Nervous System is the part of the nervous system and it controls functions such as respiration, blood circulation, temperature control and digestion,  There are two parts of the ANS:
​
1 - Sympathetic Autonomic Nervous System (SNS): Is responsible for triggering our reaction system to a stressful situation, controlling our “fight and / or flight” reaction, increasing our blood pressure, heart rate and blood flow in the muscles.
​
2 - Parasympathetic Autonomic Nervous System (PSNS): Is the system that heals, digest, rests and conserves our energy.

The Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Autonomic Nervous System must be balanced to improve health and performance.

As the Autonomic Nervous System is responsible, among other things, for the control and determination of the heart rate. Therefore, by quantifying it through HRV, we can assess the organism's ability to perform its usual functions.  From the quantitative findings of the HRV we can assess the following:​​
​
(1) Degree of Physical Fitness at the time of the examination; 
(2) The level of stress on the body and its ability to adapt; 

The great advantage of this method is the ability to detect early signs of functional changes associated to stress. In addition to being a non-invasive procedure, the test is completed in approximately 10 minutes.
​
The HRV acts as a faithful parameter of fitness, health and stress levels.

Hello everyone, I am from Wembley, Britain. I want to write this testimony to tell others and thank Dr. Odunga for what he has done for me. The first 12 years of my marriage I had 5 miscarriages and I was called all sorts of names by my mother-in-law and this made my marriage life very hectic and a burden of sorrow. I contacted Dr. Odunga for help and I will say that he is a very strong and honest man and he indeed helped me solve my problem. I saw his email in a testimony and I contacted him, little did I know it would be the end of all my problems. After 2 days of contact, I received a fertility herb and he told me to use it. The herb worked and my husband even loved me more and bought me expensive things. One afternoon, I went to a nearby hospital and came back home with the positive result of my pregnancy and after 9 months I gave birth to a baby boy. Ever since I contacted Dr. Odunga, my story has been different. I have 3 children at present and I am very happy in my marriage. Please, contact him at [email protected] OR Whats App him +2348167159012 to help you too
