Meet your Speakers:

Dr.Michelle Eisenmann


Why should your patient care about eye movements, autonomics and vestibular components? How to make it relevant for the patient

Eye movements, autonomics and vestibular function develop together from birth onward. As a practitioner it is important for your patient to truly understand these systems. How they function together and how it practically affects your patient's day to day life. The better informed the patient. The better the therapy plan and success of treatment.

Hope Survives: The Lasting Effects of Chronic TBI & Multiple Concussions

Cristabelle Braden is a 16 year survivor of TBI and multiple concussions who is now an award-winning singer/songwriter, podcast host of "Hope Survives | Brain Injury Podcast", founder of the online support community "Hope After Head Injury", and member of the board of directors for the Brain Injury Association of Pennsylvania. Her journey has been a long one of trying to uncover the root cause of her symptoms. In this presentation she will share about the chronic journey, inspired both by her own lived experience and her decade of working with other survivors. Her mother will also join for part of the presentation to help to give insight into what patients and families go through. This presentation will address how chronic symptoms affect not only medical struggles but social, relationships, schooling, family dynamics, and more, with the hope that clinicians will walk away with a deeper empathy and understanding for patients.

Unlocking the link between Mold and your Hormones

 

In this day and age, we have an average of 50% of homes being water damaged. This is only of those reported. The rate of infertility, miscarriage, and hormonal imbalance is also on the rise. From my own experience, I lost my testosterone and health due to mold toxicity and have dedicated the last decade into understanding the intricacies between mold and your hormones.

 Limits? Yes Please! Before lifting your limits comes loving your limits

 

With getting a concussion, you also get new limits to deal with. Unfortunately. And of course you want to expand on those new ‘crappy’ limits as fast as possible. I get it all too well from experience. Often, everywhere you look people are pushing you to push through your current limits in order to expand on them. However… that is not how is works with concussions! That will just make you crash, over and over again. Sounds familiar? It's key to first learn to steward the limits you have now and create room within those limits. Then you’ll have room to breathe and start living instead of just surviving (Doesn’t that sound nice?). From there your brain will be ready to expand your limits and heal more. So… want to learn more about this? come and see my talk: Limits? Yes please! - Before lifting your limits comes loving your limits.

The Brain-Inflammation Connection: Heal Faster with Food

 

After a concussion, the brain experiences inflammation that can disrupt cognition, mood, energy, and healing. While rest is important, nutrition plays a powerful and often overlooked role in supporting recovery. In this presentation, Functional Nutrition Coach Danielle Blasko (me!) explores how specific foods and nutrients can help reduce inflammation, stabilize the nervous system, and accelerate the healing process. Attendees will learn what to eat (and what to avoid), how the gut-brain connection impacts recovery, and practical strategies to use food as medicine for optimal brain health.

Dr. Becca Timko


A Clinical Approach to Chronic Pain After Concussion: Moving Beyond Symptom Management

 

Concussion and chronic pain often coexist in the same patients, but are frequently treated in isolation. This presentation explores their overlap and highlights why traditional musculoskeletal symptom management may fall short. It will cover common clinical pitfalls and introduce a brain-based framework for assessing and managing persistent symptoms.

Meet your Summit Host

I’m Natasha Wilch - concussion mentor, clinician, clinic owner, entrepreneur and all around passionate leader.

 

With over a decade of experience as a Registered Physical Therapist and seven years dedicated to working with concussion clients, I have honed my expertise to the point where clients travel from all over the world to seek my specialized concussion rehabilitation services at Symphony Brain Performance, the clinic I founded in 2015.

My life was forever changed the day my first concussion client walked into my clinic. Since that time I’ve made it my mission to elevate and transform the conversation and culture of concussion on a global scale.

And I am not your average mentor. Yes, I will impart neuroscience, guide you through evidence-based practices, and keep you up to date with the latest research. But it goes beyond that.

I lead with both mind and compassionate heart, blending science with spirit, and logic with intuition. This holistic approach may challenge some because it transcends the confines of black-and-white thinking. But it is precisely this blend that makes me exceptional in what I do. And it is precisely this blend that will catapult you to become a trusted authority in concussion management in your area.

Together, we will shape the future of concussion management, empower others, and leave an indelible mark on the world.
