Brain Injury Treatments

- Every brain in different, as is every brain injury. Treatments that work for some may not work as well for you
- Your healthcare provider may prescribe more than one treatment at a time
- Time is your friend. It may take some time to see improvements. Be consistent, persistent, and patient
