Concussion Rescue Protocol

 

  • Have injury reviewed by Medical Doctor for issues needing medical intervention like a brain bleed.
  • Concussive injuries are cumulative. Addressing today's NOW, minimizes the cumulative effect later. 
  • Healing past injuries minimizes their future impact .

 

When your concussive hit does not require medical treatment.

 

  • Rest for 48 - 72 hours (2-3 days)
  • Physical
  • Mental
  • Start First Aid Nutrition Protocol as soon as possible = immediately.
  • Start the Home Nutritional Protocol today.
  • Continue Home Nutritional Protocol for 1 month.
  • Sleep is really important. You may notice it is somewhat disrupted.
  • Plan for more sleep time to account for both healing and disruptions.
  • We are made to move. Begin Physical Activity as soon as you can.
  • Starting Level is individual - keep it below triggering symptoms.
  • Start with walking.
  • Stop if symptoms return.
  • When symptoms are not present, you can increase your activity in steps. When symptoms reappear, stop and return to activity level below triggering symptoms. Continue to slowly increase as you can.
  • Being active triggers the body to heal and recover faster. Being active at just below levels that trigger symptoms maximizes your recovery speed.
  • Mix your activities - as you go
  • walking
  • Running
  • Swimming
  • interval training
  • weight training
  • Mental activity
  • Start slowly
  • Words
  • Numbers
  • Shapes

We do not prescribe or suggest changing any medicines, herbs and/or supplements others prescribe. We do expect clients closely monitor with your prescriber all prescriptions during and for at least 6 months following your work at HOPE and adjust them appropriately. Symptomatic changes and diagnostic changes do not necessarily occur in unison and either can precede the other.  Both are observed following sessions. So work with your prescriber and track it.
