Overview
Concussion is a complex and multifaceted injury that requires a comprehensive approach to rehabilitation. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in helping patients recover from concussion by assessing and treating the physical symptoms, such as dizziness, headaches, fatigue, vision changes, balance disturbances, or musculoskeletal impairments.
Treatment for concussion may involve using techniques such as vestibular rehabilitation, exercise prescription, manual therapy, and/or modalities to address the underlying issues. Additionally, educating patients on proper sleep habits, diet, stress management, and gradual return to work or sport protocols can help mitigate the risk of long term complications and promote optimal recovery.
