Treatment of concussion and post concussion syndrome. New training and other methods for your rehabilitation. Start a 4-5 month course now.
Are you on sick leave with chronic concussion
and post concussion syndrome?
and post concussion syndrome?
Post concussion syndrome can affect anyone. Doctors typically recommend rest after a concussion but what if you still have symptoms 4-6 weeks later? You see a neurologist without findings? You have tension headaches and cannot focus on reading? Has your concentration got foggy?
Then you might have had a mild traumatic brain injury, mTBI, where some areas of the brain work more slowly due to impaired blood flow (1b).
Maybe your behavior has changed (1b) and your quality of life has got poorer (1c) after your injury.
All hope is not lost when you are suffering from concussion and post concussion syndrome.
A “broad treatment” of both body and brain may be the solution (1d).
Symptoms to watch out for are:
The symptoms of post concussion syndrome (PCS) and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are (2a, 2b, 2c):
- Dizziness, balance problems, fatigue (2d, 2k)
- Visual disturbance, photosensitivity, sensitivity to sound (2e, 2f)
- Fogginess and tinnitus, headache or migraine (2g) Cognitive disorders such as decreased concentration, memory and learning (2h)
- Rapid exhaustion, especially in social contexts (2i)
- Problems reading, especially on screens (2k)
- Worse sleep, either too much, too little or at the wrong times (2i, 2j)
- Anxiety or depression (2j)
REbrain Clinic will help you
You have probably tried different treatments after a concussion, but likely not simultaneously!
And not in an intensive course of treatment, using methods that have been studied but are not widely used.
You now have that opportunity
Certain studies and treatments for post concussion syndrome and mTBI can only be found abroad.
But there are several methods of rehabilitation available in Denmark.
Many methods are new
Your doctor might not necessarily have heard about them.
Although the methods originated in the universities, they are not widespread.
Some methods have 100% proof of effect (evidence). They have been thoroughly researched in several double-blind research studies.
Other methods of ours are being constantly examined by highly trained specialists and are in the pipeline.
These methods are being researched internationally, have been described in research articles but only practiced in a few places in Denmark /the EU.
Will you accept a smaller amount of evidence to prove the effectiveness of the treatment?
Get your “mild” traumatic brain injury, mTBI, detected.
Did you know that your concussion can cause mild traumatic brain injury, mTBI, without the injury necessarily being visible on a regular CT / MRI scan?
Since the brain is plastic, treatment can be a success, if the lesions are not visible on CT/MR but visible on a SPECT brain activity scan (4a). Read more…

Get all aspects checked with REbrain Clinic
As well as a thorough medical examination by specialists, we investigate whether your functional problems after a concussion are due to your eyes and examine how your brain activity has changed.
REbrain Clinic retrains eye and brain activity as part of your treatment for post concussion syndrome. We refer you to innovative treatments in PHYSICAL REHAB and help you with an individual plan and implementation of a comprehensive, intensive individually tailored course.
The intestine is connected to the brain and plays a major role in stopping inflammation (5a, 5b). You might also lack building blocks for essential brain processes. That is why we, at REbrain Clinic, specialize in CELL rehabilitation, which includes SELF HELP. You can help your cells through your lifestyle. Read more about SELF HELP

Do you also suffer from neck injury?
Many people get a neck injury together with a concussion (6a). A simultaneous whiplash neck injury results in a greater degree of nerve damage (6b).
Women have weaker necks than men, and weak necks produce more severe mTBI (6c).
Neck injury can also cause sudden lumbar pain (6d).
Neck injuries should be diagnosed separately. But treatment of the neck should be done at the same time as treating your concussion.
If in doubt, get your neck examined.
We send you to a new examination of your neck, by world-leading doctors, who produce scans, that will lead to more precise manual therapy. A good diagnosis is a prerequisite for a good result.
Let us help you
We offer an initial brain injury consultation, where we look at your specific challenges and you get an overview of an individually tailored course of treatment
You get help making decisions about:
- Further medical examinations using other scans (second opinion)
- a possible 6-week course to feel how it’s working or
- a complete individually tailored course over 18 weeks with diagnosis and treatment of your concussion.
