Robbie's Road to Recovery: Conquering Post Concussion Syndrome

I think a really fundamental thing for me was learning to have an appreciation of neuroplasticity- and that's a big word- but effectively it just means the brain's capacity and capability to heal and to grow, and you're a researcher in this field, so you, if I'm butchering, you know the description.
Ever wondered how someone can bounce back from a condition that leaves their world spinning? Robbie Frawley takes us on a heartfelt journey through his seven-year battle with post-concussion syndrome (PCS). In this episode of 'Stories of Recovery', Robbie opens up about the treatments that initially helped him, the management strategies he discovered, and the life-changing concept of neuroplasticity – the brain's incredible ability to heal and adapt.
Robbie believes that if he had known what he knows now, his recovery might have been much shorter, and he’s eager to share these insights to help others on similar paths. Guiding this conversation is Associate Professor Tasha Stanton, a leading pain neuroscientist and physiotherapist, who adds depth with her expertise in pain education and body representation. Together, they explore the ups and downs of living with PCS, offering practical advice and hope for anyone facing brain-related challenges.
Whether you’re dealing with PCS yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with wisdom and encouragement.
