We also discuss the pillars of treatment for these conditions and we cover some basic strategies that you can take right now to start addressing some of these issues.

Agree with majority of things but cost and patient out of pocket cost really delay ones healing process. Very greatful for practicing treatment team who help with this especially when benefits run out quick. Blood diet critical…well actually all is for recovery. Physio,occupational, phycology. All take time but a ton of work at patient level. I have huge tool box for my continued recovery. Covid was the year I got bulk of my health back. Listen all great info. Cheers Dr Marshall.
Just did a concussion clinic webinar with Dr Cameron Marshall.
Invaluable information and a very holistic view and approach. Thank you so much 😃
I need to know how to stop head pressure. I've had it off and on 4 years. For Christ's sake please tell me what causes the head pressure and how to make it stop.
