Neurofeedback
for Concussion and TBI Recovery
(Traumatic Brain Injury)
Neurofeedback Can Support Recovery After Concussion & TBI
Each year, there are approximately 3 million emergency room visits related to traumatic brain injuries in the United States, yet many concussions and mild TBIs still go unrecognized or underreported.
After a brain injury, inflammation is part of the body’s natural healing response. In the short term, it helps protect and repair damaged tissue. However, in some cases, this inflammatory response does not fully resolve and can persist for months or even years. Ongoing inflammation can interfere with how the brain communicates and regulates activity, contributing to the long-term symptoms many people experience after a concussion or TBI.
Even mild TBIs can disrupt normal brain function, leading to symptoms such as:
Headaches
Difficulty concentrating
Brain fog
Irritability
Sleep disturbances
Increased sensitivity to stress or stimulation
Visual disturbances or impairment
In some cases, these symptoms can persist for months or even years after the initial injury, especially without targeted intervention, affecting daily functioning, work performance, and overall quality of life.
A key aspect of concussion recovery involves restoring healthy blood flow and activity in affected areas of the brain. After a concussion, blood flow is often reduced in regions that were impacted, which can contribute to many of the symptoms people experience.
Neurofeedback works to re-engage these underactive areas by training the brain toward more efficient patterns of activity. As these patterns improve, blood flow and communication between regions can improve as well, helping reduce symptoms and support recovery.
"Our pre-teen son was suffering from persistent anxiety that we believe came from a severe concussion. The anxiety was really impacting his school work and social relationships. Your team has helped him immensely. His anxiety is manageable now. We have our happy kid back."
