Concussions (mTBI) and Chiropractic Treatment - Premier Pain Management
Concussions (mTBI) and Chiropractic Treatment

People who suffer a mild-traumatic brain injury (mTBI), known as a concussion, can recover within a few weeks, or can suffer ongoing issues, known as post-concussive syndrome. Proper, immediate treatment is the key to recovering from concussions, and chiropractic care has been proven to play a big role in promoting recovery from concussions.

A study in 2021 determined that the risk for developing post-concussive symptoms increases significantly if mTBI patients have neck pain during the acute stage, the beginning stage of the concussion. The use of cervical manual therapies by a Doctor of Chiropractic can reduce the symptoms and speed recovery. Another study in 2020 showed that whether the concussion was a result of a car accident, sports injury, or something else, and whether the concussion is in the acute, subacute, or chronic stage, that chiropractic treatment with a multi-modal treatment approach is proven to be effective in all cases.

Premier Pain Management uses a multi-modal treatment approach for concussions, a combination of manual therapies, exercise training, diet and nutritional counseling, physical therapy modality applications, and more. There has also been verified results for using anti-inflammatory nutritional supplementation and limiting intake of white sugar and processed meats, as well as proper nutrition and supplements to boost brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels to repair damaged neurons and reduce the risk of neurodegeneration. More information on this can be found in Nutritional Program to Treat Concussions.
