Caroline had a Spinal Stroke in 2020 and was paralysed from the waist down. She suffered neuropathic pain – combination of pain occurring when our nervous system is damaged – including from the peripheral nerves, spinal cord, and brain.

She was unable to focus on anything other than the pain. Life became hard and she found herself staring blankly out the window, trying not to move. Daily activities became difficult and uncomfortable.

A glimmer of hope…

A friend introduced Caroline to The Brain Collective and she started a course of neurofeedback training. She was greatly encouraged when she noticed she started to feel happier and more like her usual self. The pain, while present was not at the forefront of her thoughts or life.

Her self -confidence improved and she is convinced the training has helped her be the best she can be. She has since taken control of her life and is now considering returning to work.

Looking beyond the Paralysis

Ellen’s testimonial in her own words –

‘The staff at the brain collective are wonderful, compassionate, and caring to each individual’s needs. They listened to my history and what I felt were the problems and then suggested treatment. I truly feel that without their help I would not have the positive outlook I have now.

Melanie and Maria genuinely care and have gone above and beyond with my treatment including consulting with contacts in America and trying equipment that may benefit.

The treatment has had a ripple effect. It has helped my husband, children, and the wider family and I cannot thank The Brain Collective enough for helping me see beyond the paralysis and pain and find myself again.’’
