What We Treat

We Treat Mild TBI

Nearly 750,000 veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts have been affected by structural changes in the brain, TBI, or chemical changes in the brain, PTSD, as a result of their service to our nation. The cost of untreated TBI can be devastating. The benefit of self-directed rehabilitation is empowering and life affirming.
