When you see the words “Traumatic Brain Injury” (TBI) – what do they mean to you?
“Causes” can range from concussions to anything from sports injuries to battlefield trauma. They can have lasting or even fatal effects too.
The results of a severe concussion— for example, problems with thinking, memory, movement, emotions—are clear. The causes, or underlying pathological mechanisms, are less so.
- It normalises the systems.
- It aims towards the Health of the individual and the local tissues too.
- It improves the blood supply
- It brings the nervous system and nerves back to balance
- Each treatment is unique and individualized to the patient each time
- It requires no medication – only hands!
- It encourages the inherent healing mechanisms inside all of us to up their game
Amazingly it has been found that the nerves and central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) can re-wire themselves to some extent (for example after a traumatic limb amputation it reorganizes its neural map and reroutes the function to the remaining limb.)
This shows that our bodies are remarkably adaptable and “plastic” to changes in order to maintain or gain function – even if that is not at the same level as it was. This shows that it is important to never give up hope that something can be done. You just never know. In fact – it simply shows that finding the right therapy for the individual may be the answer, not that health cannot be attained.
If you, or a friend, have had a traumatic brain injury, it may be worthwhile seeking the advice of your local cranial Osteopath. This is especially helpful soon after an incident – when the most effects and benefits to healing take place, but even after some duration afterwards. Also age is not an issue – TBI’s can happen after a difficult birth, during the working life, after accidents etc.
