What is a Concussion?
A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) caused by a blow, jolt, or sudden head movement that forces the brain to shift inside the skull. Even without a loss of consciousness, a concussion can affect your cognitive, emotional, and physical health—and symptoms may last for days, weeks, or longer without proper care.
Chiropractic care offers a holistic approach to post-concussion recovery by addressing spinal and nervous system imbalances that often follow head trauma. Our goal is to help restore clarity, reduce lingering symptoms, and support your return to full function—naturally and safely.
Concussion Symptoms
Symptoms of a concussion may show up immediately or develop gradually. You may experience:
- Headaches or pressure in the head
- Neck pain or stiffness
- Dizziness or balance issues
- Fatigue or brain fog
- Sensitivity to light or sound
- Difficulty concentrating or remembering
- Irritability or mood changes
- Sleep disturbances
- Visual disturbances or nausea
If symptoms persist beyond a few days, or if you’ve had multiple concussions, it’s important to pursue care that addresses both the brain and body.
How Chiropractic Care Helps Concussions
While many Chiropractors don’t treat the brain injury itself, BeWell Chiropractic does. We play a key role in post-concussion recovery by providing the appropriate amount and type of brain stimulation through vibration, light, sound, eye movements, active brain based rehabilitation and specific targeted adjustments. This supports the body’s natural healing processes and helps ease secondary symptoms often related to:
Whiplash or cervical spine misalignment
TMJ dysfunction
Vestibular imbalance (dizziness, nausea)
Muscular tension and restricted blood flow
With the appropriate input and system support, Chiropractic care helps reduce the intensity and duration of post-concussion symptoms.
How Chiropractic Care Supports Concussion Recovery
Your care plan may include a combination of the following therapies, depending on your symptoms and exam findings:
Chiropractic massage
to ease muscle tension in the neck, shoulders, and jaw
Spinal adjustments
to restore cervical alignment and relieve pressure from the nervous system
Each care plan is customized based on your symptoms, lifestyle, and long-term health goals.

We work collaboratively with neurologists, physical therapists, and primary care physicians as needed for integrative concussion care.
