We’re back for another episode of Positive Reaction, this week in the show we get into concussions. What are concussions and what are the protocols for getting back into excising? Essentially, a concussion is a traumatic brain injury, and just like any injury, there are protocols in place to get you acclimated back to working order. We also debunk the long-known myths revolving treatment of concussions and share the correct procedure for treating concussions.
