Cleared by your doctor, and still not right.
Most concussion recovery advice ends at the point where the scans come back clean. For a lot of people, that's not where the problem ends.
If your head injury was recent, start with a doctor. Emergency care exists for a reason, and the first days after a head injury are not the time for anything else. Nothing here replaces that, and we'd tell you the same thing on the phone.
This page is for later. Weeks or months out. You've been checked, you've been cleared, and something still isn't back.
- The fog that lifts and returns
- Light and noise that wear on you in a way they didn't before
- Sleep that never fully recovered
- A shorter fuse than you used to have, and the sense that you're working harder to do the same things
That gap — medically cleared, functionally not yourself — is where most people are told to wait it out. Some do recover on their own. Others are still waiting a year later.
Why this looks like the rest of our neurofeedback work.
Post-concussion symptoms tend to cluster the same way attention, sleep, mood and mental fatigue cluster in everyone else: they're outputs of a nervous system struggling to regulate. That's why the person recovering from a car accident and the parent whose kid can't settle often describe surprisingly similar days.
LENS is a wellness service. It works alongside — never in place of — your doctor, therapist, or school supports.
Who we see.
Physicians in Middle Tennessee refer patients to us — we work from a standing referral list. We also see professional athletes, and people recovering from car accidents, months and sometimes years after the injury.
What a first visit involves.
A 21-point recording and a written plan you keep. We walk you through what we see, alongside what you tell us about how your days actually go.
