HOW WE CAN HELP
After a concussion, the head and neck often take the impact together, and the nervous system can stay on high alert. Frank's care focuses on what can be helped with gentle hands-on work and guided activity.
• Craniosacral therapy: very light techniques for the head, neck and jaw that many people find calming.
• Graded return to activity: a paced plan for getting back to screens, work, school and exercise.
• Self-management tools: simple strategies for headaches, sleep and energy that you can use at home.
• Part of your wider recovery: osteopathy is a separate modality that often works well in conjunction with other approaches to concussion recovery.
