Concussions & Recovery

Concussions are frequently induced by a blow to the head via sports, falls, car accident, domestic abuse, and even shaken baby syndrome. Most people who suffer a concussion either don't believe they had a concussion or ignore the signs because there was no loss of consciousness.

Some concussion signs and symptoms appear immediately while others may take a day or even a lifetime to surface. Seek medical attention immediately if you suspect a concussion, especially when symptoms worsen over a short amount of time.

Possible Concussion Signs and Symptoms

Headaches Sensitivity to light and noise
Loss of consciousness Ringing in the ears
Amnesia about the injury or in general Loss or distortion of taste and smell
Seizures Decreased balance and/or coordination
Neck pain Poor concentration
Trouble sleeping Memory problems
Drowsiness or fatigue Confusion and slow thought processes
Dizziness Personality changes
Nausea or vomiting  Irritability, extreme rage
Slurred speech Apathy, lack of interest or motivation
Blurred vision Depression and/or anxiety

At ProNeuro Health, our multifaceted care will fully assess, manage, and properly support concussion related injury resulting in fewer symptoms while decreasing long-term effects. We provide help that goes far beyond simply rest. We use a combination of physical therapies, brain-based protocols and nutritional supplements* to reestablish brain chemistry to address symptoms and to support the brain. Our process also increases internal protection before a concussion takes place to minimize the damage of a concussive event.

We recommend resting as much as possible after a concussion as well as temporarily avoiding physical and cognitive activities. Decrease activities including sports or any activity that raises heart rate. Also, decrease activities that require heavy concentration or attention like working on a computer or playing video games. However, we will provide much more than rest for concussion recovery.

You are worth more than minimal care. We can significantly reduce symptoms of concussions and restore brain function.

Testimonials

  • "I was having headaches everyday due to concussions. My moods were unpredictable and I always felt like I was in a fog. I would have migraines at least once a week. I just didn't feel right and no one was able to tell me what was wrong. The neurologists I went to see would simply say I needed time to rest my brain after a concussion. They didn't tell me what part of my brain was affected or offer any form of treatment. I was frustrated and looking for anything to make me feel better. I went to Dr. Ruben as a last hope. Little did I know he was exactly what I needed. Dr. Ruben took his time to find out exactly what was wrong with me, bringing me not only piece of mind but also a solution. Today, I am feeling more like myself again. I haven't had a migraine in over two months and I can't remember the last time I had a headache. It was the first time in a long time that I felt like a doctor really cared. Thank you Dr. Ruben for giving me my life back!"

  • "I have been to other chiropractors, but none have provided the care or knowledge I received from Dr. St. Laurent. He was able to find the root causes to improve my brain chemistry. His understanding of neurology and adjusting techniques had me back on my feet in a few days with less visits."
