Healing the Brain

From one of the world’s leading concussion researchers, a revolutionary evidence-based guide to healing from a traumatic brain injury

Revelations include:Sleep: why you simply can’t get enough of it (think 14+ hours a day)Diet: the science behind why protein is so important in concussion recovery, and the most effective ways to get more of itExercise: what type, how much, and when it’s safe to reintroduce it back into your lifeMindfulness: the hidden benefits of meditation, acupuncture, and other tools for healingAnd much more… Healing the Brain offers a hopeful path forward, helping concussion sufferers return to the full person they were before.
