What if the key to brain injury recovery isn’t another prescription—but learning how to detoxify your brain and body naturally? In this episode of Better Health Bookshelf, Dr. Ayla Wolf, a leading expert in functional neurology and author of The Concussion Breakthrough, reveals what most doctors miss about post-concussion syndrome and how natural approaches can help the brain heal itself. 

For anyone still battling headaches, brain fog, or fatigue after a concussion, this episode offers practical hope and proven steps for natural concussion recovery.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Ayla Wolf, who specializes in functional neurology and Chinese medicine. We dig into how these fields come together to help people dealing with concussions, migraines, and chronic pain — and why traditional approaches often fall short. Dr. Wolf walks us through the science behind her methods, including how acupuncture, vestibular work, and eye movement assessments can reveal what’s really going on in the brain after an injury. We also talk about her new book, The Concussion Breakthrough, and how it’s helping patients who’ve been struggling with long-term symptoms finally find a path forward.
