I would like to share our experience with a concussion in hope that it would be of great benefit for others to read:
My daughter went on a group ski weekend with her friends. There was a ton of ice and the conditions were icy – not good for skiing. Although Jen was wearing a helmet she slipped on the ice and fell backward hitting the back of her head, then whipping forward landing face down on the ice. There was no way to prevent a concussion with such a serious wipe out. She had the immediate symptoms of being dazed and feeling out of it. Her head and neck hurt. The sounds around her were too loud, she was sensitive to light. She felt sick to her stomach and was very tired but couldn’t rest. She went to a room and text-ed me. I told her to get a buddy and have them watch her. I was very worried. The chaperon gave her some Tylenol. Two days later she return home from the accident. She looked ok but tiered and had a headache. These symptoms lasted for 8 weeks. School was getting to be a real problem. She was not able to concentrate. It was very hard to read and comprehend. Teachers were just making noise, nothing was sticking. The traditional medical community said to have her rest. No activity, no text-ing , no tv, no driving, no to everything, just rest. She couldn’t even rest peacefully. She would wake up every 3 or 4 hours. Never a full night sleep.
We call our friend in Florida who’s daughter had also had sustained a concussion on the icy slope. She had taken her daughter to Dr. Kitay. They had had immediate results with similar symptoms to Jen’s were gone. I thought it was worth a spring break vacation to see Dr. Kitay and the Atlantic ocean. Both were amazing.
After seeing the Doctor one time for the Neural Organization Technique, Jen’s demeanor was 90 times better! Seriously. Worth the air fare… Her symptoms were cut in half. There were two more treatments and she was symptom free. A few good nights of full sleep and she and I were back to having conversations and relief that this concussion was gone and behind us.
We are very grateful to our friend who was willing to share her experience with us and to tell us about Dr. Kitay and Neural Organization Technique. Dr. Kitay is professional, intuitive, kind and caring. She is a healer. Thank you again and again.
