Concussion Treatment Physiotherapy

A clear path back after a concussion. Concussion treatment physiotherapy combines monitored rest with active, symptom-led rehabilitation to help you return to normal activity safely.

What it is

What is Concussion Treatment Physiotherapy?

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a strong impact to the head or neck. Recovery isn't just rest — targeted physiotherapy addresses the specific systems a concussion disrupts: the neck, the inner ear's balance system, vision, and your tolerance for physical exertion.

Your first visit includes a full history and physical assessment — balance, gait, range of motion, heart rate and inner-ear testing — which shapes an individualized recovery program built around your specific symptoms.

Treatment may include vestibular retraining, visual tracking exercises, hands-on neck therapy, and gradually increasing cardiovascular conditioning — all paced to what your symptoms allow.
