Understand The Symptoms Of A Concussion
Get Connected With Equinox Integrative Wellness Center For The Details
The major symptoms of a Concussion are due to the disturbance in brain’s metabolic function that occurs following either a blow to the head or as a result of the violent shaking of the head. Equinox Integrative Wellness Center is providing a unique Neuroscientific receptor-based Concussion management services in West Vancouver. Signs Indicating A Concussion:
● Fatigue.
● Nausea.
● Vomiting.
● Slurred speech.
● Appearing dazed.
● Ringing in the ears.
● Dizziness or “seeing stars”.
● Delayed response to questions.
● Confusion or feeling as if in a fog.
● Temporary loss of consciousness.
● Amnesia surrounding the traumatic event.
● A headache or a feeling of pressure in the head.
Because concussion management is currently thought to be primarily a metabolic rather than structural injury, traditional neurodiagnostic techniques are often normal following the concussive insult. After a full neurological evaluation, the patient may need to go through our Computerized Neurocognitive Baseline Test and/or Video Nystagmography test (VORTEQ).
After interpretation the result then we offer a Functional approach to activate the compromised brain pathways that involve Vestibulo-Ocular system, Cerebellum, Frontal-Basilar and Mesencephalic areas through specific visual-sensory-motor neural integration using brainstem cranial nerve stimulation and balance work.
