Breakthrough Treatment for Brain Injuries and Concussions

What is Concussion Recovery Therapy?

CRT yields superior therapeutic outcomes over current concussion treatment options.

MPS Concussion Recovery Therapy (CRT) is a non-invasive protocol specifically designed to treat the root causes of Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). While standard care often focuses on rest, CRT uses Microcurrent Point Stimulation to actively shift the brain from a state of "sympathetic stress" to a healing "parasympathetic" state. 

Concussion Recovery Therapy combines outside-the-box therapeutic thinking with evidenced based science to produce the world’s first successful brain therapy, ushering in a new era for human health and healing.

Key Components of Concussion Recovery Therapy

Goal

A concussion often causes the body to become stuck in "sympathetic up-regulation," more commonly known as chronic stress. The primary goal of CRT is to reduce the physical causes of stress that control post-concussion syndrome (PCS) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) symptoms. Clinical data shows that CRT can reduce cortisol levels by an average of 48%, which is critical for restoring cognitive function and brain health. 

Benefit

Persistent symptoms are often linked to an imbalance between the "fight or flight" (sympathetic) and "rest and recover" (parasympathetic) branches of the ANS. By stimulating specific neurological and acupuncture points, CRT improves vagal tone, which acts as the body's natural brake for the stress response. CRT is reported to increase HRV by an average of 39.2%, a key metric for measuring how well the nervous system is recovering.

Procedure

When a head injury occurs, the cranial sutures (the joints between skull bones) can become "jammed" or restricted, leading to increased pressure and symptoms. Practitioners typically use two MPS devices simultaneously on either side of the sutures. Releasing these sutures helps decrease intracranial pressure, which often results in immediate improvements in headaches, dizziness, and visual disturbances.

Address the Root Case with Concussion Recovery Therapy 

Concussion Recovery Therapy (CRT) is a powerful solution that supports long term brain health.

MPS Concussion Recovery Therapy (CRT) is a specialized protocol that uses trans-cranial Microcurrent Point Stimulation to address the physiological "lock" that occurs after a head injury.

Unlike traditional management which focuses on rest, CRT actively targets the autonomic nervous system to shift the brain from a state of chronic stress to one of healing. The therapy targets primary cranial sutures, specific scars, and calming acupuncture points to normalize neurological function. Unlike many cognitive therapies, CRT can produce measurable brain changes after a single session and is often used as an adjunct to standard physiotherapy and balance rehabilitation.

MPS Concussion Recovery Therapy (CRT) is specifically engineered to address the physiological stress and neurological imbalances caused by head injuries. While its primary focus is on brain healing, the underlying mechanism of reducing cortisol and balancing the autonomic nervous system makes it an effective adjunct for several related conditions.

Primary Conditions Treated

  • Concussions & Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI): CRT is designed to treat both acute injuries and lingering symptoms that affect quality of life.

  • Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS): It specifically targets the "sympathetic lock" (chronic stress) that prevents recovery in patients with symptoms lasting beyond four weeks.

  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): It addresses functional and cognitive impairments resulting from more severe mechanical force to the head or face.


Common Symptoms Resolved by CRT

People often seek CRT to resolve the following persistent issues: 

  • Headaches & Migraines: Reduces pressure by releasing jammed cranial sutures.

  • Dizziness & Vertigo: Helps restore balance by regulating the nervous system.

  • Cognitive Issues ("Brain Fog"): Improves mental clarity, concentration, and memory.

  • Sleep Disorders: Directly helps with insomnia and improves sleep duration.

  • Sensory Sensitivities: Reduces hypersensitivity to light (photophobia) and sound (phonophobia).

People often report improvements in symptoms that have persisted for months or even years: 

  • Physical: Reduction in chronic headaches, dizziness, and light/sound sensitivity.

  • Cognitive: Improved mental clarity, focus, and memory.

  • Emotional/Sleep: Better sleep duration and a reduction in post-injury anxiety or irritability


Research Study

In a study conducted by the Center for Pain and Stress Research, the results were astounding after a single session: 

  • Cortisol (stress hormone) was reduced by 47% 

  • Cognitive functioning improved by 47%

  • Brain fog was reduced by 41% 

  • Headaches were reduced by 33%  

  • Ringing in ears was reduced by 47%  

  • The King Devick Test (considered a gold standard in evaluating for concussions) reaction time reduced 6% (which means they could answer the questions quicker).  


Broader Neurological & Health Applications

Due to its ability to lower cortisol (by an average of 48%) and increase heart rate variability (HRV), the CRT protocol is often applied to:

  • Chronic Stress & Anxiety: Calms the "fight or flight" response and supports emotional regulation.

  • PTSD: Helps resolve the physical markers of trauma stored in the nervous system.

  • Alzheimer's & Cognitive Support: Used as a tool to support brain health and neuroplasticity.

  • Post-Stroke Recovery: Can be used to help re-innervate neural pathways and manage related pain.

  • Parkinson's Disease: May help with tremors and systemic nervous system regulation.

  • COVID-19 Brain Fog: Approved by Health Canada for treating lingering inflammatory symptoms related to COVID-19.


What to Know & Expect from the Session

  • The Session: The treatment is typically painless, with patients feeling only a mild tingling. A single session can last as little as 3–20 minutes, though a full protocol may involve 1 to 10 sessions depending on the severity of the injury.

  • Rapid Results: Unlike many cognitive therapies that take months, CRT is reported to produce measurable brain changes and symptom relief after just a single session in some cases. 

  • Potential Side Effects: Reported side effects are generally rare and transient, but may include headaches or sleep disturbances. Some patients may experience temporary changes in sleep patterns or mild headaches immediately following stimulation as the brain begins to "reset"

  • Post-Injury Timing: While early intervention can be beneficial, it's recommended to wait until the person is past the most acute phase (typically at least 48–72 hours post-injury) to begin active rehabilitation.

  • Treatment Clearance: It is highly recommended to consult with your current concussion team or primary care doctor before starting CRT to ensure it fits your specific recovery stage.

  • Contraindications: Microcurrent point stimulation (MPS) is not recommended for those with pacemakers, medical device implants, epilepsy, open wounds/infections or during pregnancy.
