Post-Concussion Syndrome Treatment in Edina, MN
You were told your MRI is normal. You were told to rest and wait. But weeks — or months, or years — later, you still aren’t right. The headaches, brain fog, light sensitivity, and dizziness haven’t gone away. You’re not imagining it. Post-concussion syndrome is real, and it has measurable neurological causes.
Before recommending any treatment, we conduct a comprehensive objective evaluation specific to concussion. Every test is chosen because it measures something relevant to your symptoms.
Standard medical care is excellent at ruling out catastrophic disease. But it often misses the functional neurological causes of persistent symptoms. Here’s what we find that others don’t:
Dr. Maesaka with The Neural Connection has restored my faith in the idea that just because you feel crazy, doesn’t mean you are! Highly recommend for anyone who has experienced a concussion recently or in the past, or anyone in general who wonders why their brain doesn’t feel like it’s working on all cylinders.
Our approach to post-concussion syndrome begins with a comprehensive objective evaluation. We measure vestibular function, oculomotor performance, autonomic stability, and cervical structure — then correlate every finding to your specific symptoms. Treatment is built entirely around what we find, not a generic protocol. We use targeted vestibular rehabilitation, oculomotor therapy, cervical treatment, and autonomic regulation to address the root causes driving your symptoms.
Take the free concussion recovery quiz. It takes about 2 minutes. Bring your results to your free consultation and we’ll go over them with you.
Not a diagnosis. This self-assessment is educational and helps identify patterns worth discussing with our team. It does not replace a clinical evaluation.

Post-concussion syndrome can persist for months or even years after the initial injury. If symptoms last beyond 4 weeks, it’s a sign that the underlying neurological dysfunction hasn’t resolved and needs targeted treatment.
Standard MRI detects structural damage — bleeding, fractures, tumors. It does not measure how well the brain’s functional systems are working. Vestibular dysfunction, oculomotor deficits, and autonomic instability are functional problems that don’t appear on MRI.
Research now shows that prolonged rest after concussion can actually delay recovery. Active, targeted neurological rehabilitation — guided by objective testing — produces significantly better outcomes than waiting.
Yes. The nervous system retains neuroplasticity throughout life. Many of our most successful patients come to us years after their initial injury. The key is identifying the specific neurological deficits that are still present and treating them directly.
Yes. We have extensive experience treating concussions in children and adolescents. Pediatric brains require specialized approaches, and we tailor our evaluation and treatment accordingly.
