Post-concussion fatigue is more than feeling tired. It can feel like the brain runs out of energy too quickly. In this episode, Bhakti Brain Health Clinic explores why concussion recovery can be confusing, invisible, and different for every person. The conversation looks at why standard scans can appear normal while symptoms continue, how the brain can become less efficient after injury, and why fatigue, brain fog, headaches, visual overload, dizziness, sleep issues, and the “still not me” feeling deserve to be taken seriously. This episode also explains how vision, vestibular balance, neck input, autonomic regulation, functional testing, QEEG brain mapping, neurofeedback, neurostimulation, photobiomodulation, pacing, and at-home nervous system tools can support a more individualized recovery path. Topics include: Why concussion is more than a head injuryPost-concussion fatigue and the “battery capacity” problemWhy symptoms can worsen later in the dayBrain fog, headaches, and mental exhaustionVision, vestibular, and neck systems after concussionWhy screens, reading, and busy environments can feel drainingFunctional testing and QEEG brain mappingAutonomic dysregulation and low HRVNeurofeedback, neurostimulation, and photobiomodulationAt-home regulation tools like HRV breathing, humming, pacing, and gentle cold cuesEducational content only.
