Are outdated myths about concussion recovery holding you back?

If you've ever been told that bed rest is the best way to heal from a concussion, you're not alone. Many people dealing with concussions still struggle under old advice that doesn't align with current science, keeping them from experiencing real recovery.

Today, Dr. Annie Howard joins us to share groundbreaking insights on concussion recovery, as well as the practical, integrative approaches she uses to help patients reclaim their lives. From her own journey with a serious concussion to innovative tools like adaptive contrast oxygen therapy, Annie's expertise challenges common misconceptions and brings fresh solutions for managing concussion symptoms.

In this episode, you'll learn:

👉 Why the "rest for two weeks" advice may not work for your recovery—and what to do instead

👉 The power of an integrative, whole-system approach versus the outdated "silo" method

👉 How adaptive contrast oxygen therapy can improve blood flow, reduce brain fog, and enhance mood

👉 Simple, effective ways to support concussion recovery, even for persistent symptoms

Ready to leave outdated advice behind and take charge of your recovery? This episode with Dr. Annie Howard will give you the tools to get started.
