Concussion Boost Program

What others say about the Boost Program:

For me, the biggest difference is that I’m no longer constantly stuck in fight-or-flight mode, my headaches have lessened, and I have more energy.

Lieve van Laar

It’s my sixth day in the Concussion Boost Program, and I already feel much better! Two days ago, for the first time since the accident, I felt like listening to music again. Today I woke up with almost no headache... I feel less pressure in my head when my heart rate goes up... Less fatigue, more energy 😍

Corina

Thanks to your program, I feel like I’m at 80% recovery. It’s amazing because I was probably around 40% before. It has helped me tremendously with my headaches, migraines, nausea, and more!

"I finally feel better than ever since the accident."

These intervals are the only training that gives me energy and does not cause symptoms. I have only been doing it for three weeks and I notice improvements: less overwhelmed by the senses, fewer triggers for panic/anxiety, I sleep through the night, less fatigue/headache.

Mai Wang

A bubble feeling in my head is reducing my fatigue

At first, I was a bit sceptical and thought it wouldn't make a difference compared with normal exercise, but what a difference!

After doing the intervals, I feel so energized and I get a bubble feeling in my head (feels great!), which reduces my fatigue. So glad I gave it a try, thank you!

Joan Martinez

"I no longer suffer from dizziness and headaches."

Hi Silvie, I just want to thank you for the advice to reduce the intensity of my training a bit. This week I had my best week so far. This week I will train twice and then three times the week after, and maybe I will stay at that level. I have adjusted my social routine with the intervals and neck exercises in breaks throughout the day. All my dizziness and headaches have disappeared, and I fall asleep much later in the day now, around the time I eat with the family.

On impulse, I bought Silvie’s program, mostly just to read and watch it. I couldn’t imagine that I would actually do it! But I decided to give it a try anyway. From the very beginning, it helped me SO much. After 5 days, I felt SO much better! My mind feels clear, it’s like magic! This program has truly been a gamechanger for me!

Patrick

Hi Silvie! I’ve been doing your Concussion Boost program for about 4 months now, and it’s almost the only thing that has really helped me! I’m very grateful for it!

Mia Schmidt

I have less headache and can hardly believe it! Twice I felt a deep calm, and I feel like I’m slowly coming out of the fight-flight mode. That’s new for me! I really feel like things are going to change. So thankful that you developed this program!

Nina

I followed the program for about a month and found it very valuable. It gave me more insight into the brain and nervous system, and how you can train the brain out of the “fight or flight” response using breathing exercises.

I also really liked the cognitive exercises and noticed that they truly helped me..

Kerstin Weijdegard

After a short month of interval training, really?! After all the programs I followed, I didn’t expect this. But if this is the result, there is definitely progress to be made. I was surprised by what I was actually able to do.

Masjenka

I thought I was stuck because I had a serious setback. But then I started doing the cognitive exercises and that helped my brain come back to baseline, allowing me to continue with my recovery process. I really felt the wheels turning in my head with every exercise, and I still regularly go back to them. Your exercises really saved me.

My headaches have decreased, I can handle stimuli better, and my energy is increasing. I slowly feel like I’m becoming more and more myself again

I’ve been doing both the interval and cognitive exercises for about three weeks now, and I’m slowly and carefully starting to notice improvements. It feels amazing, and I’m so happy about it.

My headaches have decreased, I can handle stimuli better, and my energy is increasing. I slowly feel like I’m becoming more and more myself again — and that’s such a relief.

I’m really surprised by the progress.

I recognize what you and others are describing — during the exercises, I feel a sense of clarity in my head, and I even recognize that sparkling feeling (like opening a bottle of sparkling water). It’s as if my brain is working hard to heal, but in a good way, rather than turning that effort into more headaches.

I’m really grateful that I can actively do something myself — and that it’s working.

Mentally, I’m also doing better. Instead of being stuck in a loop of fear and uncertainty, constantly worrying, I’m now able to see things more positively.

Kevin de Vries

After a few weeks, it felt like something clicked in my head!

I started the interval training and cognitive training at the same time. I know, I was stubborn because you advised me to start with the interval training first, but I couldn’t wait, haha! I’ve learned my lesson and am taking it a bit easier now, thanks for that!

After a few weeks, it felt like something clicked in my head. In the mornings, I feel more focused and alert (which is usually difficult for me). I notice more blood flowing to my head and my nervous system feels calmer.

I could only walk for a few minutes at first, but after two weeks things started to improve.

Personally, I found the program incredibly helpful in regaining my confidence in exercising, because before I started, it was almost impossible for me. I’m so happy I can work out again!

Before I began, I could only walk for a few minutes without experiencing symptoms. So, I was quite skeptical about whether this would work for me. But I saw no other option, and after reading many reviews, I decided to give it a try. It actually went better than I expected.

At first, I did experience some symptoms (which Silvie said was normal), but after two weeks it started to get better. Then I also began doing the cognitive exercises, which greatly improved my concentration.

The chiropractor and his receptionist said I was more lively and alert during this session than they’ve ever seen me before.

Tara Smit

My overall wins: all symptoms have decreased and I recover faster from a setback than before.

Audrey Brown

Breathing took time to master and get used to, but I truly believe it makes a huge difference – I no longer get setbacks from movement like I used to.

Nina H.

My biggest win is that my symptoms are now much less than even a week ago. I feel like things are finally turning around. As long as I don’t push myself too hard, I feel almost normal – that definitely wasn’t the case before.

Faisal Willems

Since I started interval training, my concussion symptoms have decreased. I have more energy. The day before yesterday, I even felt normal all day.

Leon Peeters

I feel better than ever since the accident. I also slowly notice other improvements, such as less sensory overload triggering panic or anxiety, and I usually sleep through the night.

Josh Smith

I’ve been doing your Boost program for over two months now and it helps me a lot – I’m starting to feel more like myself again! I just had a major setback, but recovered very quickly thanks to the interval training. The improvements from the past few months are really noticeable.

Lieke Mulder

I started the cognitive training and I really want to recommend it to everyone. It feels great, even though it’s challenging. I tried number 1, 2, 3, and 4 and then I was able to relax deeply; I felt a bubbling sensation in my head, as if I could tell that new synapses were being formed. I’m definitely continuing with this Boost program!

Nina

The most important thing is that I find medical information here that I’ve been asking my doctors for 9 years (!) – but they couldn’t help me.

Dylan D.

I just finished day four of the first week of the exercises from your cognitive program. Today it felt like something clicked.

Niko Larsen

I completed both your interval training and cognitive course, and they helped me a lot with my recovery.

Anna Hansen

My clinical director said he hasn’t seen me this well in 25 months – lively and natural.

Annette Hagen

I also started doing Silvie’s cognitive exercises. While doing them, it feels like something is being activated in my brain. It seems like I’ll be back to my old level soon.

Mark Mulder

When I started, I felt very dizzy and had a lot of headaches. It’s amazing how much easier it is now. I also feel like I’m back to my old fitness a bit. It’s nice to experience that energetic feeling in my body again.

Carolyn J.

On Wednesday, I finished my 12-week interval training! 💜 It really helped me. Thank you, Silvie. I’m currently on a small retreat and I felt normal for almost two days straight! 🌸

Necla H.

I’m celebrating two weeks of interval training and it’s making me fitter and happier! My breathing also helps a lot to manage my dizziness and hyperventilation moments.

Remco Kristiansen

I started cycling on a stationary bike and also use a trampoline. This really changed my energy level and reduced my symptoms.

Monique Vos

Interval training, breathing exercises, and cognitive exercises were crucial for my improvements. From that moment on, I started to feel better. I now do them 4x per week and I feel much clearer.

Gregg D.

I’ve done the interval and cognitive exercises twice for 12 weeks. The first time was amazing; it really helped me out of a severe setback. The second time I did it after a second concussion, and it supported my recovery during this very stressful period. I still do the exercises three times a week and notice they improve my mood, keep my mind sharp, and make my body happy.

Carolyn Jean

In July and August, I did interval training 3 to 4 times a week, every morning. It really helped me; my head felt much clearer afterwards. Thanks, Silvie!

Now, in September, I can even do a 45-minute HIIT class in the park once a week or every two weeks. I definitely couldn’t do that before!

Chris Livia

I finally started interval and cognitive training this week. The biggest improvement so far is that I notice more stable mood and emotions (which was quite a challenge since the concussion). It’s truly a boost for my confidence!

Claire Molenaar

My visual memory has definitely improved. I can now also use speech-to-text and edit, which I couldn’t do before I started!

Wendy Havekamp

Recently, I added cognitive training to my interval training and I’m noticing new improvements I didn’t expect: less anxiety, better sleep, and fewer headaches. I started about a month ago.

George Baker

Hi Silvie! I just did my first round of interval training on the bike at the gym. I feel more energetic after my workout than usual! That’s awesome to notice! A great first experience!

Fransje

It’s really amazing! The training is going so well. I’m already telling all my friends about it. I finally feel a shift (after years!!). So thank you!

Jessa Mae

I completed all fifteen cognitive exercises. I see improvements in my speed and really notice the difference on the days I do them compared to the days I don’t do interval training.

Gabriella Santos

I quickly saw lots of improvements. It allowed me to start strength training again. I also notice that I recover much more easily now. Truly encouraging!

Sofia Reyes

I’m so used to flare-ups, crashes, and who knows what else, that it’s very strange to feel like a normal person for once. My calendar is now full of interval training for the rest of the year. Today, I picked up a package and the conversation didn’t even drain me like it normally does!

Isabella

I’m surprised at how well I handled the fluctuations in my heart rate and blood pressure. I thought this would be much harder for me with dysautonomia. I definitely see improvement since starting interval training; I was even able to start the paperwork for disability benefits!

Laura Stutze

I started interval training on November 15 and cognitive exercises on January 9. My recovery was completely stuck. In August, I struggled to hold conversations and thought recovery was no longer possible. But since the scan in January, I’ve made the most progress! Super exciting!

Monique

Last week, I drove a car again for the first time since the accident, and it went well. Things are going so much better! I could hardly believe it was possible again. It means the world to me. And the best part: I didn’t get a headache afterwards. It’s quite amazing how little effort those short interval workouts take.

Amara Clark

This week, I did three workouts and it took less time to recover. I’m also listening to more music and notice that my headaches and migraines are decreasing. My head feels less foggy. I really missed that feeling!

Melanie Mijnheer

In the past two weeks, I feel more energy and less fatigue. It’s also getting easier to sit in front of a screen and talk with other people. I enjoy the little bubbles in my head – the feeling that something good is happening!

Lieve van Laar

I’d like to start by saying how thankful I am for you and your program. I’ve been struggling with so many symptoms for years. Since I started interval training on a stationary bike, I’ve slowly built up my stamina and noticed massive improvements. Less brain fog, less dizziness, less seasick feeling, lower heart rate, etc. I’m so grateful!

Amanda

So many improvements! One of the unusual symptoms I experienced daily was numbness in my face. This has significantly decreased. I have more energy and haven’t had any “couch days” for nearly four weeks – that’s amazing! I can now work behind my computer for longer and plan multiple activities in a day instead of limiting myself to just one.

Bonnie

I had a 3-hour Zoom call without nausea or headaches. I can hardly believe it! Yesterday, I had a three-hour meeting with my son’s teachers and had to drive 6 km back afterwards – and it went just fine! A year ago this was really impossible. The light also seems less bright now; for once I didn’t have to ask if they could dim it. And the best part: I didn’t get a migraine or any backlash afterwards. I can hardly believe what’s happening! So happy!

Nina Meijer

Eric G.

A clear moment I haven’t felt in 7 years!

First of all, I want to say how happy I am that I started the program.

Today is day 3 of my interval training. I was already exercising, but I applied the adjustments from the program — with success! I immediately felt changes from the start. For the first time, I wasn’t tired after visual exercises, and my stomach didn’t feel restless like it usually does.

On day 2, I had a clear moment after interval training — something I haven’t felt in 7 years! I was able to walk faster without getting symptoms. I’ve struggled with that for years. Now I know that my autonomic nervous system couldn’t properly deal with increasing speed.

Oh, and it was also the first day in 4 years that I felt energetic all day. That’s something new!

Today, on day 3, I had only half the symptoms after the intervals.

Wendy Mclean

Wendy went from feeling demotivated and always experiencing symptoms after exercise, to doing intervals three times a week without any symptoms.

I started a few months ago and it has helped me a lot. I felt stuck, and exercising was a big struggle. That made me feel demotivated quickly, and I would have a setback every time I tried.

I slowly started interval training by walking briskly, and now I can do it three times a week (on the bike, without symptoms!).

What I’ve noticed: less headache, less fatigue, more energy, and less sensory overload.

Hana Park

"To my surprise, I started feeling better very quickly."

To my surprise, I started feeling better very quickly. Since I always tend to overdo it when I feel good 😅, I went on to do a fairly intense strength workout. I felt strong and really good. At home, I was even able to do the cognitive exercises. After that, I rested well. What progress! I also slept great!

Tom Nilsen

"My migraines have improved. I can actually stop a migraine attack with interval training now."

I started Silvie’s interval program and my migraines have improved. I can actually stop a migraine attack with the interval training now. I could hardly believe it. 😆

This morning, for example, I felt a migraine coming on again, so I put on my workout clothes and did my training. Now I don’t have a migraine anymore, just a “small” headache. 🙂

Amy S.

Amy went from daily headaches and brain fog to waking up with a clear mind.

Amy struggled with the most ‘normal’ things and tasks: having conversations, going to the supermarket, making phone calls, driving, controlling her emotions, doing more than one task a day — and on top of all that, she suffered daily from headaches, fatigue, and migraines.

In short, Amy no longer enjoyed her life; she was just surviving.

Doctors told her she had to accept her situation and learn to cope. But after starting the program, she transformed from someone who was always at home into someone who enjoys her social life again.

She no longer has daily headaches, her migraines have decreased, and she has just started driving again. She now wakes up every day with a clear mind instead of brain fog.

Jessica

I've been following your Boost program since the end of May. It's hard to make time three times a week with two kids, but after a few weeks, I suddenly noticed that I wanted to listen to music in the car again, and I can now play music at home for the kids too. I'm also going to bed later in the evening and feel less extremely tired!

Recovery is possible.
