Ask A Medic: Fighter Brain Recovery

Dr. David Wang (USA) is a Sports Medicine physician with 30 years of experience working with athletes, including kickboxers and MMA competitors. He is the medical director of a concussion clinic, a member of the medical committee of IMMAF, and a contributing doctor to Safe MMA.

MMA is a high-contact sport involving strikes to the head. Recovery is essential in training, not just recovery of the body but also that of the brain.

In Safe MMA’s new monthly column for Fighters Only magazine, Dr Wang advises on brain recovery during training for athletes (in the absence of injury or injury concern).
