Concussion

Suggested steps to speed concussion recovery time:

1
If you think you may be concussed, get evaluated as soon as possible. A complimentary phone consult one on one with the Doctor is alway available, ask your questions with no obligation.  We will fit you in same day whenever possible for a functional evaluation of movement, tension and scope of concussion.  We utilize state of the art imaging technology (sEMG, Thermography and Heart Rate Variability) to evaluate and track your recovery progress. 
 
Our very unique and specialized non-invasive, no twisting or popping upper neck and cranial work care is a great asset in the successful treatment of concussion.  This hands on whole body care is very relaxing and comfortable. We have helped many elite athletes return to competition faster and safer.
 
Experience has taught us that a proactive approach to concussion speeds recovery. Don’t wait, if you’re concerned, act today.

Limit screen time and exposure to bright lights and loud sounds.

3

Avoid jarring or bouncing movements of head, neck or body.

4

Stay hydrated, I personally love coconut water as a source of hydration.

5

Take it easy, rest, sleep is a time your brain can reset and heal itself.

6

Eat clean protein, some research indicates that higher amino acid (building blocks of cells) intake may speed recovery.

7

Increase Omega-3s intake, especially DHA (I recommend Nordic Naturals brand and suggest 2 grams with each meal for best outcomes, watch gut tolerance, if you have issue, reduce intake util gut tolerance increases.

8

Eat foods high in antioxidants, think lots of bright varied colors in your foods

9

Trust your body to heal, listen to your body, it will help you know what’s working and what’s too much.
