What It Is
Concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that can occur after a blow or jolt to the head. While symptoms often improve within a few weeks, recovery can vary from person to person and sometimes takes longer. At Courtyard Clinic, our physiotherapists provide specialist concussion management, supporting safe recovery and a gradual return to normal activity, work, or sport.
Common reasons for choosing concussion management
Concussion management can help with:
- Headaches or pressure in the head
- Dizziness or balance problems
- Sensitivity to light or noise
- Fatigue or difficulty concentrating
- Memory or processing problems
- Delayed return to work, study, or sport after a head injury
What to expect
Your physiotherapist will carry out a thorough assessment of your symptoms, balance, coordination, and activity tolerance. You will receive a clear explanation of what is happening and a treatment plan tailored to your needs. This may include education about pacing and recovery, exercises to support balance and eye movements, and guidance on gradually returning to daily activities, sport, or work. Progress will be reviewed regularly to ensure your recovery stays on track.
