    Episode 134 - Concussion Recovery Stories

    My colleagues and I started the Concussion Fix program when the pandemic first hit as a way of offering an extremely low-cost virtual concussion care service that would be accessible to people all around the world. After 2 years we have helped more than 2000 patients with long-standing post-concussion syndrome - sometimes as long as 7+ years - to fully recover from their concussions and get their lives back. In this episode, we asked a handful of former Concussion Fix members to join us to talk about their injury, their recovery, and their experience with the Concussion Fix program and how it helped them to get back to work, family, friends, sports, and life. If you are struggling with long-standing concussion symptoms that are just not getting better, consider joining the Concussion Fix program and hundreds of other concussion survivors who are recovering every day with this program! https://concussiondoc.io/offer/the-concussion-fix/ For previous podcast episodes, visit: https://completeconcussions.com/resources/ask-concussion-doc/ CONCUSSION EDUCATION PROGRAMS: Healthcare Practitioners: https://completeconcussions.com/services-courses/healthcare-practitioners/become-a-clinic/ Coaches/Trainers/Teachers: https://completeconcussions.com/services-courses/sports-schools/ Follow us! www.completeconcussions.com
