Concussion Clinic Christchurch NZ: The Hidden Cost of Doing Nothing

Nasal RX Advanced Concussion Treatment

Introduction: Why Concussion Cannot Be Ignored

Every year in Christchurch, thousands of people experience concussions — from rugby and netball players to tradespeople, drivers, and children in playground accidents. While most people recover within weeks, a significant number continue to suffer chronic headaches, migraines, brain fog, jaw pain, sinus congestion, mouth breathing, dizziness, and fatigue long after their initial injury.

Mainstream advice usually revolves around rest, medication, and waiting. But for many, this wait never ends. Symptoms linger, become part of daily life, and slowly erode health and quality of living.

The cost of doing nothing — or doing only symptom-based care — can be profound, both physically and financially.

This is why Musculoskeletal Solutions Concussion Clinic Christchurch and Silverstream offers a different approach the revolutionary treatment - NasalRX (Cranial Facial Release), a structural treatment protocol designed to realign cranial and facial bones, restore breathing pathways, and reduce or eliminate the ongoing cascade of concussion-related problems.

The True Cost of Untreated Concussion

Ignoring concussion symptoms is not a neutral choice. When cranial bones remain locked and misaligned, the following can occur:

• Headaches and migraines that become chronic, often requiring ongoing medication.

• Brain fog and poor concentration that limit academic and work performance.

• Sinus congestion and mouth breathing leading to poor oxygenation and sleep apnea risk.

• TMJ dysfunction with jaw pain, clenching, or even tinnitus.

• Mood changes, anxiety, and fatigue driven by disrupted nervous system balance.

On top of this, untreated concussion increases the long-term risk of neurodegenerative conditions, as poor cerebrospinal fluid flow and reduced venous drainage impair the brain’s natural cleansing systems.

From a financial perspective, the costs of ongoing GP visits, prescriptions, and lost workdays quickly surpass the investment in a direct, structural solution.

Why Conventional Concussion Care Falls Short

Traditional concussion clinics in New Zealand often focus on:

• Symptom monitoring (tracking headaches, dizziness, etc.).

• Medication (painkillers, anti-inflammatories, sleep aids).

• Rest and reduced activity guidelines.

While these steps can help in the short term, they don’t resolve the mechanical distortions inside the head and face caused by concussion impacts. The skull bones, jaw joints, and sinus structures can shift subtly but significantly, leading to ongoing dysfunction even when the brain itself looks “normal” on scans.

This is why so many people are told “your tests are fine” but continue to suffer years later.

NasalRX (Cranial Facial Release): The Structural Solution

NasalRX (Cranial Facial Release) is offered exclusively at Musculoskeletal Solutions Concussion Clinic Christchurch NZ - Clinics in Christchurch & Silverstream.

It is a non-surgical, hands-on technique using small medical balloons briefly inserted into the nasal passage. These are inflated for 1–2 seconds to gently mobilise the cranial bones, restore motion to sutures, and re-establish cranial rhythm.

The treatment is:

• Drug-free and non-surgical

• Performed in-clinic (≈30–40 minutes per session)

• Delivered as a 4-treatment series across 8 - 10 days

The cost is from $295 per session.

Compare this to ENT Balloon Sinuplasty - up to $20,000 per treatment in private care, with less favourable long-term outcomes and no correction of cranial mechanics.

How NasalRX Works for Concussion

By restoring structural motion inside the cranial vault and face, NasalRX directly improves:

• Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow → reduces brain fog and pressure headaches.

• Venous drainage → lowers inflammation and swelling.

• Airway patency → improves breathing, reduces mouth breathing, supports sleep.

• TMJ balance → eases jaw tension and migraine triggers.

• Neurological clarity → patients often report improved focus, memory, and mood.

It is a true mechanical solution for a mechanical injury.

The Downside of Waiting

Leaving concussion untreated can:

• Lead to permanent airway dysfunction, encouraging chronic mouth breathing.

• Contribute to progressive TMJ damage and bite misalignment.

• Lock patients into a cycle of chronic medication use with side effects.

• Increase the risk of long-term cognitive decline.

Every month spent “waiting to recover” is a month cranial misalignments may worsen.

Conclusion: The Real Cost of Concussion

The greatest cost of concussion isn’t medical bills — it’s the toll on daily life when symptoms don’t resolve. Headaches, fog, poor sleep, and sinus blockages drain energy and potential.

But the solution does exist. With NasalRX (Cranial Facial Release), Musculoskeletal Solutions offers an affordable, structural, and exclusive treatment that restores cranial alignment and gives patients their lives back.

At approx $295 per session the investment is a fraction of surgical alternatives and delivers results that no pill or other current protocol can match.
