Welcome to FYZICAL Brevard's March Newsletter!

 

March is Brain Injury Awareness Month and Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month. Read more about our concussion management program, how physical therapy can help relieve Multiple Sclerosis symptoms, and some delicious Spring recipes! 

Physical Therapy Can Assist in Concussion Recovery

A concussion is a brain injury that is caused by a blow to the head or violent shaking of the head and body. The impact causes a biochemical imbalance within the brain cells, resulting in decreased blood flow and temporary energy deficits within the brain.

 

Concussion symptoms typically include loss of consciousness, headache, pressure in the head, neck pain, nausea or vomiting, dizziness, or balance problems. Physical therapy can help offer relief and reduce the symptoms of those suffering from a concussion. A personalized treatment plan consisting of exercises to promote healing can make all the difference during your recovery.

 

At FYZICAL Brevard, your physical therapist will help you safely return to activities following a concussion. The exercises designed to help you acclimate back to your routine normally consist of stretching, strengthening, and balance activities. Over time you may experience progress like decreased headache frequency, improved cognitive function, better sleep quality, and reduced risk of prolonged post-concussion syndrome symptoms. Without the proper care, you will be at an increased risk of re-injury or additional long-term complications. If you have experienced a concussion, FYZICAL can help you get on the road to recovery. With support from our team, you can take steps toward a successful and lasting recovery.

 

Physical Therapy Can Help Manage Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a nervous system disease, which injures the myelin sheath, the material that surrounds and protects your nerve cells. This affects your brain and spinal cord and can create damage that stops or slows down messages between your brain and the rest of your body. The symptoms can include visual impairment, muscle fatigue, imbalance, and cognitive decline.

 

If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis recently, physical therapy can help regain and maintain strength, flexibility, and general fitness. Physical therapy for Multiple Sclerosis will begin with a comprehensive assessment of your health history and current condition. Our physical therapists will create a custom-made program to assist you with managing your symptoms!
