Its interesting that you mention this, because last week i had a patient who was having cognitive/physical issues for quite some time after a fall in the bath tub and a concussion. His symptoms werent getting any better....this included some dizziness issues, walking imbalances, headaches, and numbness in arms and hands. An MRI showed bulging or herniated discs throughout his cervical spine and a neurosurgeon believed this was contributing to opted to do a laminectomy and discectomy on c3-c7 i think. Post-op, his headaches, dizziness, numbness and gait disturbance were all better. So in that case, they believed some of his PCS symptoms were directly caused by these herniations and nerve compression.

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.
