TBI recovery website about alternative therapies
I came across this website about parents of a TBI victim and the alternative therapies they have discovered in trying to help their daughter through her recovery. The first one listed is of course Healing Touch, which is widely used in hospitals now and nurses are being trained to deliver this nurturing, relaxing, energy therapy. It gives a general understanding of what each therapy is and what it helped with their daughter. Might be a good resource for those of you looking to supplement your recovery with alternative therapies.
I also started having Healing Touch done on myself and since ive been doing it to myself everyday as well....i've almost fully recovered. I barely experience any TBI symptoms. It was quite a drastic change from constant headaches everyday for 6 months to no headaches a week later and maybe a slight one once a week or every 2 weeks for the past 6 weeks.

Suffered a TBI with PCS on April 25th 2011 from multiple blows to the head from falling, unconscious for 12 hours with no memory of event. Hit the back of my head, and above right eye. MRI and CT negative. Symptoms included constant headaches (migraine, pressure, tension, icepicks), dizziness, tinnitus, visual changes, photophobia, fatigue, "spacing out", word finding difficulties, depression, and emotional lability.
Began Healing in November 2011 after starting acupuncture and Healing Touch (a nurturing energy therapy that promotes relaxation and pain relief). I went back to work in February 2012. Ive been symptom free since July 2012. Very happy, positive, energetic and working out every day, doing yoga, and living a normal life again!
I also began taking Healing Touch classes in November 2011 and completed 5 Levels of Healing Touch Certificate Program that included a 1 year mentorship to become a Healing Touch International Practitioner in June 2013. I am so pleased to offer this wonderful healing therapy to my patients, friends, and clients.
