Thank you Mark for your reply. I accidentally left out the part where my daughter was diagnosed with TMJ and was referred to an osteopath by a neurologist for this condition. She and the DO discussed her medical situation and decided to try 5 sessions and then re-evaluate as along as she was benefitting from each session. Her TMJ pain decreased in addition to some of her PCS symptoms also decreasing.

It is my belief that some mTBI patients will experience an increase in anxiety, depression, fatigue, head pressure, etc and this will manifest itself in some way. With her it seems to be sleep related with an increase in teeth grinding.

The Integrative Clinic at Stanford is not even a clinic for mTBI. However her symptoms of PCS are clearly symptoms that the clinic focuses on.Yes this was a stretch..but she has stated the that there have been a decrease in her PCS symptoms.

The acupuncture done at the clinic has absolutely helped with her TMJ and the general anxiety regarding her medical and educational situation. I can ask her specifically about it but that is always fraught with peril

I really had read your replies over the year and took from it to focus on the symptoms that are bothering the patient the most.

I did look into the NCUUA and found a specialist in SF who has been doing this for years: Zabelin, Michael S, DC - Cow Hollow Chiropractic, but one medical treatment at a time. If we go this route then definitely icing afterward will be
done.

Thank you for you general diligence in responding to people who are reaching out for answers.
