Improving Symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) with BrainCore Neurofeedback Therapy -- Dr. Keri Chiappino Explains

March is Brain Injury Awareness Month.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been in the spotlight over the past several months with recent speculation that over 90% of football players are believed to suffer from chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a progressive neurodegenerative disease found in those who've sustained repetitive concussions.

While TBI is often associated with sports, slips and falls are actually the most common cause of brain injury. In the elderly, statistics show that falling once doubles the chance of falling again, increasing the risk for repetitive brain injuries. Symptoms of TBI can last a lifetime if not properly addressed and can potentially lead to neurodegenerative disease like dementia and Alzheimer's.

Those who sustain a TBI often face long-term cognitive and motor function challenges due to the injured brain's production of slow delta brain waves. Neurofeedback training works on areas of the brain that show dysregulation, encouraging the production of higher brain-wave patterns that help process information more clearly and improve memory and motor functions.
