Brainstem Healing: How Long after CCI surgery? Fraser Henderson, M.D.

How long does it take to heal from craniocervical surgery? The answer goes far beyond bone fusion. In this clip, Dr. Centeno and a fellow physician explain the years-long process of neurological recovery following brainstem and spinal cord injury due to CCI. They discuss how the adult brain retains neuroplasticity—its ability to form new connections and repair injured neurons over time. While bones may heal quickly, recovery of the brainstem, spinal cord, and neurological pathways often takes three or more years. You'll also learn how prolonged brainstem reflexes during surgery may signal deeper neurological damage, and why patience, stability, and gradual return to normal activities are key to a successful recovery. Dr. Centeno is a pioneer in interventional orthobiologics and practices at the Centeno-Schultz Clinic, specializing in non-surgical care for patients with CCI and complex neurological symptoms. 🔔 If you find this content helpful, please like, comment, and subscribe to stay informed.    / @centenohome   To schedule a telemedicine or in-person visit, call +1-303-429-6448 or email us at [email protected].
