Some days you’ll feel almost normal.
Other days feel like square one.

This is normal.
Healing isn’t straight.
It isn’t predictable.
And it isn’t your fault.

Your brain is doing deep, invisible work — even on the slow days.

💛 Drop a 💛 if you needed the reminder.
Save this for the days when recovery feels unfair.

Screens overload your visual system:
📱 constant movement
💡 bright light
🔁 rapid processing
🔊 sound + motion
👀 eye tracking strain

After a concussion, this is HARD on your brain — which is why screens can trigger:
⚡ headaches
⚡ dizziness
⚡ nausea
⚡ cognitive fatigue

Simple fixes help:
🌙 Night mode
📵 Time limits
😎 Tinted lenses
🧘 Screen breaks every 20 mins

➡️ Save this to remind yourself to protect your brain.
👇 Comment 💡 if screens make your symptoms flare.

There is NO expiration date on brain recovery.

People heal from concussions:
✔ 6 months later
✔ 2 years later
✔ 10 years later
✔ 20 years later

The brain is plastic — it can rewire at any age, on any timeline, when given the right input.

💛 Save this for hope on the days you feel stuck.
👇 Comment “HOPE” if you needed this today.

✨🧠 Happy New Year from Concussion Care 🧠✨

If 2025 was a year of symptoms, setbacks, appointments, or frustration…
please remember this:

A new year doesn’t require a new you.
Just a gentler, more supported version of the you who has already survived so much.

This year, we hope you experience:
💛 More calm moments than overwhelming ones
💛 More clarity than fog
💛 More energy than exhaustion
💛 More support than self-doubt
💛 More healing than fear

Your nervous system can change.
Your symptoms can improve.
And you don’t have to walk this path alone — we’re here with you in 2026.

✨ Here’s to a year of progress, hope, and healing.

👇 Comment “2026” if you’re ready for a calmer, stronger year.

After a concussion, your autonomic nervous system (ANS) can become dysregulated — this is called post-concussion dysautonomia.

Symptoms include:
💓 rapid heart rate
😮‍💨 shortness of breath
🧊 temperature swings
🌀 dizziness
😰 anxiety-like sensations
🛏 fatigue

This is not anxiety.
It’s a neurological response.

At Concussion Care, we help retrain this system so your body feels calm again.

👇 Comment “CALM” if these symptoms sound familiar.
💛 Save this to show your family or GP.

“You look great!”
“You seem better!”
“I thought you’d be back to normal by now.”

No one sees:
the dizziness
the headaches
the nausea
the brain fog
the noise sensitivity
the exhaustion

Invisible doesn’t mean imaginary.

💛 Drop a 💛 if you’re tired of explaining symptoms that no one else can see.
Save this for the days you feel misunderstood.

🎄✨ Wishing you calm, comfort, and gentle moments this Christmas. ✨🎄

If you’re navigating concussion symptoms this holiday season, please remember:
You don’t have to keep up.
You don’t have to “push through.”
You don’t have to pretend you’re okay.

Your nervous system needs safety, not pressure.
Your brain needs rest, not guilt.
Your recovery matters — even during the holidays.

From our Concussion Care team to you:
We’re wishing you a peaceful Christmas filled with small wins, soft light, and the space your brain needs to heal. 💛

If you need support heading into the new year, we’re here for you.

That dizzy, floaty, off-balance feeling?
It’s not “random.”

After a concussion, your vestibular system may stop syncing properly with your eyes and brain.

This mismatch causes:
🌀 dizziness
🌀 nausea
🌀 motion sensitivity
🌀 feeling “off”
🌀 balance issues

The good news?
Vestibular rehab can retrain this system — and it’s a core service at Concussion Care.

👉 Save this post to share with family who don’t understand dizziness.
👇 Comment 🌀 if this is one of your symptoms.

Rest helps in the first few days — but after that, rest alone can slow your recovery.

Your brain needs:
🧠 vestibular rehabilitation
👀 visual-ocular retraining
⚖️ autonomic nervous system regulation
💨 breathing + vagus nerve activation
🏃‍♀️ gentle, guided activity

This is exactly what we do at Concussion Care.
Recovery isn’t passive — it’s a process.

➡️ Save this if you’re tired of being told “just rest.”
👇 Comment “READY” if you’re ready for a structured plan.

Concussion recovery is lonely.
People don’t see the symptoms.
They don’t feel the dizziness.
They don’t understand the exhaustion.

But you don’t have to do this by yourself.

At Concussion Care, we specialise in guiding people through recovery — physically, emotionally, and neurologically.

💛 Drop a 💛 if you’re on this journey too.
Tag someone who supports you through it.

Brain fog isn’t laziness.
It’s not “being tired.”
And it’s not a lack of motivation.

After a concussion, the brain’s communication pathways slow down, making it harder to:

process information

remember words

multitask

stay focused

organise simple tasks

This is a physiological response, not a personality change.

💛 Save this post for the days when everything feels slower than usual.
👇 Comment with a 🧠 if you know this feeling too well.

You can have a completely normal MRI and still struggle every day with headaches, dizziness, fatigue and brain fog.

Why?
Because concussions affect function, not structure - and MRI scans only show structural changes.

So when someone says:
“But your scans were normal…”
Just remember:
➡️ Your symptoms are real.
➡️ Your brain is healing.
➡️ And it’s not all in your head - it’s in your nervous system.

💛 Save this to remind yourself (or someone else) that normal imaging doesn’t mean nothing’s wrong.
👇 Comment “REAL” if this has happened to you.
