Understanding mild traumatic brain injury

A mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) or concussion is a head injury that can result from a sudden blow to the head or a forceful shaking of the head and upper body. While concussions are considered mild brain injuries, their effects can be significant and may require proper care and management for optimal recovery. Chiropractic care combined with functional neurology can offer a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free approach to addressing the physical symptoms and long-term effects of a concussion.

Symptoms of mTBI / Concussion

Concussions can manifest with a wide range of symptoms, which may include:

Headache
Dizziness
Nausea or vomiting
Fatigue
Sensitivity to light or noise
Difficulty concentrating or remembering
Emotional changes, such as irritability or anxiety
Sleep disturbances

It is important to seek medical attention if you suspect a concussion or mTBI, as prompt diagnosis and treatment can help prevent further complications.
