Chris Garvin is a neuroscientist working at Neuronic, where he helps bridge the gap between emerging neurotechnology and real-world impact. With a background in neuroscience and experience in neurotech diagnostics, Chris is passionate about advancing brain health and recovery. Having grown up playing contact sports and experiencing concussions himself, he brings both personal and professional insight into the discussion of innovative recovery tools.Description/Summary: In this episode of the Concussion Coach Podcast, host Bethany Lewis chats with Chris Garvin about Neuronic, a photobiomodulation device that uses specific wavelengths of light to support brain healing. Chris explains the science behind how light therapy can reduce inflammation, boost cellular energy, and improve symptoms like brain fog, sleep issues, and emotional regulation following a concussion. He shares his own experience with concussion recovery, the development of the Neuronic helmet, and the promising results he’s seen in both clinical and at-home settings. Whether you’re exploring new recovery modalities or curious about the future of neurotech, this conversation sheds light on a non-invasive, accessible option for brain health and concussion rehabilitation.
