ADVERTISING: Advertorial — The role of acupuncture in brain injury recovery
The brain is a remarkable organ. 50 years ago we hardly had a clue how well the brain was capable of recovering after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Because the brain heals slower than any other organ that we have, it was originally assumed that once damaged, you were stuck with it. We now know better. We now have tools and understanding that, when applied, have the potential to restore that which was damaged.
In my early years of practice, I specialized in treating traumatic brain injury with acupuncture and nutrition. I taught seminars on it. That was 40 years ago and what we understand today about the role of acupuncture in restoring function is amazing! I was privileged to help wake people out of comas and watch individuals who were unable to walk, get up and walk, with just a few treatments. Most, however, don’t have such dramatic results, so quickly, and can take months and even years to get to that place.
