Description

​​Are you or your patients still struggling with lingering pain long after a concussion or injury?

Too often, people are told their symptoms are “just in their head” or that they’ll have to live with chronic pain forever. Clinicians may treat the obvious issues but miss what’s really fueling the pain—and patients are left frustrated, exhausted, and stuck in survival mode.

But what if the missing link isn’t just about the body, but the brain? In this episode, Dr. Becca Timko shares how she built her clinic, Clarity Brain and Body, around functional neurology and a patient experience that truly works. Together, we dive into how chronic pain and concussion recovery intersect—and why addressing both is essential for real healing.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

  • Why chronic pain often shows up alongside persistent concussion symptoms

  • How to recognize when pain is brain-based versus tissue-based

  • The signs that pain is shifting into something chronic (hint: it’s not just about a 3-month cutoff)

  • Practical ways clinicians can shift their approach to better support patients in pain

This conversation will leave you with fresh insights, practical strategies, and hope—whether you’re a clinician helping patients heal or someone on your own recovery journey.
