CONCUSSIONS
What are concussions?
Concussions are mild traumatic brain injuries (TBI) that affect the brain's ability to function correctly. The swelling and bruising of nerves and blood vessels produce chemical changes and temporary loss of normal cognitive and neurological functioning. Post-Concussive Syndrome can severely affect every aspect of your life when symptoms last longer than expected.
What causes concussions?
The brain is a complex soft tissue organ surrounded by cerebrospinal fluid inside the skull. Blunt force trauma, such as direct impacts, blast injuries, or intense head-shaking movements, causes the brain to shift violently within the cranium. The resulting damage causes traumatic brain injuries known as concussions. The symptoms produced by the sustained injuries affect cognitive and physical functioning.
What are the symptoms?
The symptoms of concussions range from mild to severe and may continue for days, months, or years depending on severity. The most common symptoms experienced are confusion, headache, and memory loss. Generally, amnesia refers to not remembering the cause of the concussion. Other symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, drowsiness, or vision impairment.
Post-Concussive Syndrome (PCS) is when symptoms last beyond the expected recovery timeframe. Under normal circumstances, most symptoms will disappear within two weeks. Those diagnosed with PCS may continue to experience symptoms years after the occurrence.
How are concussions treated?
Medical practitioners are essential for correctly diagnosing and treating symptoms of concussions. Concussions are identified through cognitive examinations, neurological testing, and observations. Treatment typically includes mental and physical rest and excludes activities that aggravate symptoms. Activities to exclude or reduce are excessive reading, television, loud music, screen time, and strenuous work.
Recovery depends on numerous factors such as age, health, and past brain trauma occurrences. Undiagnosed and poor treatment plans delay recovery and add risk to the well-being of those inflicted.
How can Brain Frequency™ help?
The Brain Frequency™ AI system is an innovative therapeutic approach to improving brain health and wellness. We use proprietary science-based technology to promote optimal brain functioning across mental, emotional, physical, and social domains. Our diagnostic technology and individualized treatment protocols help decrease or eliminate trauma-related symptoms and various mental health disorders.
The Brain Frequency™ 3 Step Treatment Process consists of; first, performing a Baseline EEG and completing Psychometric Assessments; second, conducting a Brain Frequency Consultation; and third, Initiating Treatment.
An Electroencephalogram (EEG) analyzes brain waves and produces a brain map identifying current and optimal frequencies in 19 areas of the brain. Based on the individualized brain map, Brain Frequency™ will determine possible diagnoses of various mental health disorders or brain trauma for the provider to consider during treatment. Brain Frequency™ AI software provides clinicians with an "Approval Ready" treatment plan using personalized protocols based on each patient's needs.
Those suffering from concussion related symptoms and PCS complications can efficiently and effectively treat their disorder using the Brain Frequency™ AI system. Our innovative system drastically reduces the time needed to properly diagnose and construct treatment plans leading to a faster recovery and greater quality of life.
