Post-Concussion symptoms
Post-Concussion Information
- Post-Concussion symptoms can occur from compensatory changes in brain function after an injury.
- Concussion doesn't always involve hitting our head. A fall or whiplash can cause impact between the brain and skull.
- Post-concussion symptoms are often caused by compensatory changes that occur instead of recovering to the pre-injury state.
- These compensatory changes in brain function can impair cognitive function as well as contribute to anxiety, insomnia, headaches & more.
- EEG brain mapping can identify the compensatory changes and guide neurofeedback protocols to train the brain back to the pre-injury state.
Neurofeedback and Post-Concussion Research:
"Quantitative EEG has been shown to be highly sensitive (96%) in identifying post-concussion syndrome, and neurofeedback has been shown in a number of studies to be effective in significantly improving the symptoms of post-concussion syndrome".
