GyroStim therapy for persistent symptoms after concussion
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether GyroStim—a specialized rotating chair therapy—can help reduce dizziness, balance problems, and thinking difficulties that last more than 4 weeks after a head injury. GyroStim is designed to retrain how your brain and inner ear work together.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether personalized brain stimulation can help people who have ongoing symptoms more than 20 on a standard concussion scale, such as headaches, dizziness, or trouble concentrating, after a mild head injury in the past year.
This study tests whether adding special balance and eye exercises to standard physical therapy helps athletes recover from post-concussion syndrome. If you've had a concussion recently and still have symptoms like dizziness or headaches, this treatment might help you get back to normal faster.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that some people have after a mild concussion. tDCS uses a small electrical current from scalp electrodes to gently activate parts of the brain.
This trial tests if a portable electric stimulation device can help improve balance and reduce dizziness in people recovering from a concussion. If you have had ongoing imbalance for at least 4-6 weeks, this study may help you feel steadier.
This study tests a new treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain while you wear a special headset showing virtual reality scenes. It aims to help people who feel dizzy for a long time after a concussion.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called TMS can help people with ongoing symptoms after a mild concussion. If you have had concussion symptoms for at least a month but less than a year, you may be able to join.
