According to Barbara from BrainLine.org: “A brain injury is a puzzle…all the pieces are there but in the wrong order,” so recovery from a brain injury can be considered the process of reorganizing and reconstructing the brain and neural networks in order to regain their functioning. This essay will discuss the processes involved in brain recovery by discussing what neural networks are and how neuronal firing action potentials as well as the importance of neuroplasticity in brain recovery. Other aspects that will be discussed include the importance of learning experience and therapy in the recovery or remission of a brain injury patient. The brain is the most complex and important organ in the human body because it controls the functioning of all other bodily organs and processes. , damage to the brain is therefore detrimental to overall health and ability to function. According to Coon & Mitters (2012; p. 58), the brain is made up of billions of neurons (individual nerve cells) that carry information from sensors to the brain where it is processed. Neurons also carry signals from the brain to instruct muscles and glands to respond to information processed by the brain. However, a single neuron cannot transmit or process the necessary information and therefore neurons must interconnect with each other in order to create information. a functional brain. A neuron consists of a cell body (also called a soma) that contains a nucleus and outwardly extending neuronal fibers that receive information, called dendrites, as well as an axon, which is a fiber that carries information from the cell body of a neuron. At the end of the axon are bulb-shaped structures called axon terminals that form synapses with the dendrites and somas of other neurons. This, the...... middle of paper ......d on their recovery because it will allow them to contribute to their own recovery because their brain will be more receptive to changes in experience. Because as Maya Angela once said, “I can be changed by what happens to me, but I refuse to be reduced by it.” » Positivity, family support, and regular therapy allow neuroplasticity to occur effectively and efficiently, as the brain is constantly stimulated by new experiences. and receptive to change. Therefore, neuroplasticity is more likely to occur and allow a person to recover from a brain injury or trauma as effectively as possible while taking into account the severity and type of injury or trauma. So, in conclusion, it has been clearly illustrated in the essay that in the brain recovering from injury or trauma, neuroplasticity plays an important role and therapy for brain injury largely focuses on encouraging neuroplasticity.
