Dr. Nina Petrie uses a holistic protocol that may include a brain-recovery diet, targeted supplements, neck-focused and soft-tissue therapies, gut-health support, and a gradual return to activity.

Complete Concussion Management is a structured, evidence-informed approach to concussion care that combines multiple modalities to support recovery and help reduce the risk of lingering symptoms. Dr. Petrie is certified in Complete Concussion Management.

Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) is when concussion symptoms — such as headaches, brain fog, dizziness, or fatigue — persist beyond the typical recovery window. It's more likely when a concussion isn't assessed and managed promptly and properly, which is why timely care matters.

Many concussions resolve in about 30 days, but a portion become longer-lasting when not managed properly. Recovery timelines vary from person to person, which is why an individualized plan is important.

The TopSpin360 is a helmet-based device that helps train, stabilize, and strengthen the neck, which is an important part of recovery from whiplash and concussion. Dr. Petrie uses it as part of her concussion protocol, and it can also support balance, coordination, dizziness, and neck pain.

Yes. Neck dysfunction from whiplash is very common alongside concussion and can prolong symptoms, so restoring neck function is a core part of Dr. Petrie's approach, including TopSpin360 neck rehabilitation.

Yes, naturopathic care can help address the underlying drivers of chronic headaches and migraines rather than only managing the pain. Dr. Petrie looks at factors such as neck function, inflammation, hormones, sleep, stress, and nutrition to build a plan tailored to you.
