Concussion diagnosis is based on symptoms. The Post Concussion Symptom Scale (PCSS) is the gold standard for recognizing and monitoring symptoms.

What we consume directly affects how our brains function. In addition to proper nutrition, there is evidence that vitamins can assist with brain health and concussion recovery. Here is a guide to supplements that have been shown to be beneficial in mitigating post concussion symptoms.

Post-trauma vision syndrome (PTVS) after concussion is common and can manifest as blurred vision, double vision (diplopia), difficulty visually processing, headaches, and dizziness.

Post-trauma vision syndrome (PTVS) may affect your ability to read, focus, and maintain attention. It can also cause symptoms that are indirectly related to vision, such as dizziness and headaches. PTVD results from a constellation of long-term effects from trauma, including dysfunctional brain signaling and autonomic dysfunction. As vision therapy can and will improve your symptoms, it is just one part of the solution.

Concussion Baseline Testing is used as a way to assess balance, vestibular ocular function, and brain function when the brain is in a healthy state Results from baseline tests can be used and compared to a similar exam conducted if a person has a suspected injury. Baseline testing can help identify concussion symptoms early which will lead to more efficient and effective treatment.
