I am a striptease dancer. Together with my friend I started to prepare a dance where I am to shake my head all the time very energetically. The movements themselves are jerky and abrupt, but look perfect. I am a bit worried that by doing them so often I may do some harm to my health. May be you know better and can help me to understand the fact? Please HELP!!!
Thanxxx

Continually shaking your head violently could eventually cause brain injuries. It is just like being in a car and hitting something, however fast your car is traveling when you impact your organs are also traveling at that speed when they impact against your body.

I have no medical knowledge but if a baby can suffer shaken baby syndrome that swells the brain from the brain being hit against the child's skull I would assume it would be possible in an adult with a great force. I don't know - maybe baby's have more room in their heads, with some of the adults I know that isn't a viable argument though. lol

a concussion is a temporary disturbance in brain activity due to the brain being shaken, so if you are energetically moving your head you might but if u get symptoms like slowness in answering questions or unawareness of where u r or slurred speech go see a doctor asap... hope this helps...

You wont get a concussion just by shaking yourhead. If hit it on something while shaking your haed you might but it's not likely. You might get dizzy but thats all. Nothing serious. Beleive me I've had 4 concussions before.

No, you cannot concuss your head without striking it. It takes considerable force to damage what's inside a very tough skull. You can mess with your equilibrium and become dizzy because shaking like that messess with your inner ear which is very sensitive to that sort of thing, but concussion? no.

Possible??.. think, a boxer is knocked out because his head is quickly twisted to one side (maybe several times during the fight) and the head turns quicker than the brain.. don't know if you could do that by shaking your own head, but it is something to think about.

I don't know about brain concussion, but I do know it could cause strong pain on your neck! So, try doing it less abruptly and take care of yourself.

Yeah it is kind of like headbang I suppose. Don't do it all the time.
