Traumatic Brain Injury & Concussions

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and concussions can lead to a range of debilitating symptoms, including

• memory loss

• persistent headaches

• dizziness

• visual disturbances

• emotional instability.

These injuries often result in cognitive impairments that can affect problem-solving abilities, disrupt sleep, and lead to episodes of depression and anxiety.

Individuals suffering from TBI may find it challenging to return to their daily routines and professional lives due to these complications .

Profiles and Severity: 

The effects of TBI vary greatly depending on the severity and location of the injury. While some may experience residual cognitive decline, others might struggle with emotional regulation and social interaction difficulties.

Various profiles encompass mild concussions to severe injuries, each requiring personalized care and attention.

Our Neurostimulation Approach

At Neurofield Neurotherapy, we utilize advanced transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to facilitate neural recovery and brain plasticity. This non-invasive treatment can significantly improve cognitive function by targeting specific neural pathways, aiding in faster recovery and a return to normal life activities.

Our patients have reported marked improvements in focus, memory, and mood after undergoing our tailored neurostimulation sessions.
