About
Concussions are complex neurological events that can disrupt multiple systems in the brain and body. In this comprehensive course from the Virtual Lab at Carolina Functional Neurology Center, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how concussions affect brain function, why symptoms vary so widely, and what true recovery looks like. Led by a board-certified chiropractic neurologist, this course breaks down the science of concussion (mild traumatic brain injury) in a way that is both accessible and clinically relevant. You’ll explore how concussions impact areas like balance, vision, autonomic function, cognition, and even the gut, often without showing up on traditional imaging. This course goes beyond traditional “rest and wait” approaches, introducing a functional neurological perspective that focuses on identifying and rehabilitating specific areas of dysfunction in the brain. Through real case studies and practical insights, you’ll learn how targeted neurological rehabilitation can support recovery and restore optimal brain function. What you’ll learn: • What a concussion is and what actually happens in the brain • Why symptoms can affect mood, sleep, cognition, and more • The connection between concussion and systems like the autonomic nervous system and HPA axis • How concussions are properly evaluated beyond basic imaging • Why individualized, brain-based rehabilitation is key to recovery • A real patient case study demonstrating the recovery process Whether you’re a patient or provider, this course equips you with the knowledge to better understand concussion, advocate for proper care, and take the next step toward recovery.
