Manage episode 407147383 series 3558255
Welcome to episode seven of The Brain Game Changer podcast. I am your host, Melissa Gough. In this week's episode, we headed to the Netherlands where I had the online pleasure of speaking with Founder of The Concussion Community Silvie van de Ree.
Silvie shares how a ride home on a scooter one evening changed her life journey and the continual actions to get the proper and informed diagnosis of concussion and whiplash. We discuss her rehabilitation at Cognitive FX in Utah, one of the world's leading centres for concussion treatment and how this process steered her in the direction of creating an online platform called The Concussion Community.
In speaking with Silvie, it was obvious that she wants to provide as many resources and support to as many people as possible who have experienced concussion, or a similar adversity to make sure they do not feel alone.
