Concussion
In the world of sports, few injuries draw as much attention these days as concussions. Science and research are showing us just how powerful these injuries are, and we have exponentially increased our knowledge in the past decade about what this injury is, how to measure it and how to prevent it. However, what hasn’t been as thoroughly explored is how to provide care post-concussion. We at the NeuroLIFE Institute deal with patients who suffer from the effects of concussions regularly. We strongly recommend every person receive a baseline test; at the NeuroLIFE Institute, it’s a 15-20 minute battery of tests that allows us to give you a virtual start-and-finish line. We utilize C3 Logix, a state-of-the-art program designed by researchers affiliated with the Cleveland Concussion Center, a world-renowned facility in the concussion arena. We also boast a comprehensive (and drug/surgery free) care protocol that involves everything that influences your brain and nerve system. Whether it’s our daily NeuroLIFE Brain Smoothie, our customized EyeCare programs or balance training on the GyroStimTM, we strive to minimize the injury and maximize the recovery process in each person’s brain. If you have not yet had a baseline test that assesses your balance, vision and cognition or you suffer from one or more concussions, please contact us to learn how we can help.
Risk Reduction
From the average individual to the high level athlete, concussion is always a risk. However, here at the NLI, our approach is to identify primary areas of neurological dysfunction and to tailor a specific program for that individual or athlete. Under the guidance of our team of experts, athletes will train to react faster and be at optimum physical condition in all areas from strength to balance and stability. Just like putting the hours in at practice, reducing the risk of concussion or traumatic brain injuries prepares an athlete to step out onto the field with confidence.
