Default Has anybody sought treatment at P.A.S.T in NJ/NY

I just watched a video clip about retired football players getting concussion treatment at P.A.S.T. in New Jersey. Has anybody been treated there ?

Here is a link. http://www.eternitynynj.com/programs...ssion-program/

Mark, do you know the reason why they would do blood based genetic testing?

I think that there are conditions that perhaps predispose some of us to a longer recovery period with PCS but I don't know exactly what they can actually test for these days and how that would affect treatment options.

Perhaps looking for MTHFR mutations? This failure to methylate leads to nerve damage. (and failure to heal injuries).

I read through what I could of the web site hours ago. I don't remember why they test for genetics but their focus is not concussions. It is the high fees market of life extension and peak performance like Amen Clinics. Concussions is a way they are helping retired pro athletes, often pro-bono with donated time and resources. Some of their protocol appears common. It is hard to tell what they do differently other than their expensive testing. .
