Horse back rider who has experienced many falls

A young woman who is an experienced horse back rider came to us with headaches (not relieved with over the counter medication), extreme fatigue, and dizziness when driving or riding. She had severe Lyme’s disease last year and was on IV antibiotics for one week. She also had a history of concussions, two of which she lost consciousness from horseback riding and was stunned many times from falls. She was looking forward to concentrating better. She received seven neurotherapy treatments, and her headaches cleared, as well as facial tics and dizziness. She was referred to a Lyme’s disease specialists, to review if there was lingering lyme’s disease. It was determined there was no lingering disease and she proceeds to live a much improved life. Because of the extreme effect of the TBI on her life she decided to reduce the extent of riding and introduced other activities into her life. She decided that the risk of being unable to function normally was not balanced by the pleasure of riding.
