Concussion Care is the only clinic in New Zealand that guarantees recovery

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.

Concussion recovery can feel isolating, especially when others don’t get it.
But you’re not alone. There’s a whole community walking this path with you.

💬 Drop a 💛 if you’re on this journey too.
Let’s remind each other that connection is medicine.

"Concussions don’t always heal with rest. If your brain isn’t recovering, it’s time to look deeper."

During deep sleep, your brain cleans out waste and repairs connections (a process called glymphatic drainage).

Poor sleep = slower recovery.
Try:
🌙 Consistent bedtime
📵 No screens 1 hr before sleep
😌 Slow breathing or a calming podcast

💭 Comment “SLEEP” if you want a bedtime routine that supports your brain.

You Don’t Need to “Push Through” to Heal
You’ve been taught to push through the pain — but that strategy doesn’t work for your brain.

Pushing harder can set you back.
Listening to your body builds trust with your nervous system and creates real progress.

💬 Comment “LISTEN” if you’re ready to heal with kindness, not pressure.

You Haven’t Failed Just Because You’re Not “Better Yet.
Healing isn’t linear. Some days you win, some days you rest.
That’s not failure – it’s your brain doing its job.

💛 Be gentle with yourself today.
Double-tap if you needed this reminder and save it for when progress feels slow.

Concussions can disrupt your breathing patterns, keeping you in shallow “stress breath.”
That keeps your nervous system stuck in alert mode.

💨 Try this right now: Inhale 4 – Hold 2 – Exhale 6.
Repeat for 5 breaths and feel the shift.

✨ Save this as your daily breathing reminder and share it with someone who needs a calm moment too.

If It’s Been Months, You Should Be Better by Now.” — Nope.
There’s no expiry date on healing.
Some brains take weeks, others years – but progress always happens with the right support.

💛 Your timeline isn’t a measure of failure – it’s proof you haven’t given up.

💬 Drop a 💛 below if you’re still in the process of healing.
Let’s remind each other that slow progress is still progress.

That dizzy rush when you move your head isn’t “just in your mind.”
After a concussion, your vestibular system — the part that controls balance and spatial awareness — can become confused.

The good news?
🎯 It can be retrained through vestibular rehabilitation — a key part of what we do at Concussion Care to help you feel steady again.

💛 Don’t push through dizziness — you can retrain it.
➡️ Save this post as a reminder to book your vestibular rehab with us.

Your brain and gut talk constantly through the vagus nerve.
When one’s inflamed, the other struggles too — which means mood swings, brain fog and slow recovery.

🥦 Add fibre, probiotics, and hydration to help both heal.
A healthy gut = a calmer brain.

💬 Comment “GUT” if you’ve noticed your digestive symptoms after a concussion.
