Change Your Brain, Change Your Life Foundation

"I am grateful to have been the recipient of a spect scan. At the age of 13, I experienced a severe concussion while playing softball. When I woke up at the hospital I had my jaw braced and extensive dental work. If the accident had done that to my teeth, I wondered what it had done to my brain. Years later, when I began to work as a marriage and family therapist it became important to me to know how that accident had affected me. I also wanted to understand the process so I could help others who struggle with trauma and refer them." #brainhealthmatters https://greatnonprofits.org//change-your-brain-chan/495397

"Exceptional service! The first visit, I was with a group No Vet Alone and was treated with utmost respect. The testing was thouroughly explained and I felt comfortable getting the test ran. After the testing, I was given a brief about the parts of my brain that weren't receiving blood flow and was diagnosed with PTSD. This was huge! I have been fighting with the VA for over 10 years about my symptoms of PTSD and there it was on a piece of paper. I finally have proof that my disorder is real! Thank you Amen clinic for providing me with proof." #brainhealthmatters https://greatnonprofits.org//change-your-brain-chan/496479
