Concussion

A structured, supervised return to school, work and sport.

The short answer

A concussion is a brain injury caused by a blow or jolt to the head or body. Most people recover with a period of relative rest followed by a gradual, symptom-guided return to activity. Rehab can also address the neck and balance problems that often accompany it.

What is usually going on

Symptoms can include headache, dizziness, fogginess, sensitivity to light or noise, and trouble sleeping. They may appear hours after the injury. Returning to sport too early carries real risk.

How we treat it

We follow a stepwise, graded return-to-activity approach, assess the neck and balance systems, and coordinate with your physician on return-to-play decisions.

Common questions

What people ask us most about concussion.

When can I return to sport after a concussion?

Return is staged and individual. Early activity and unrestricted sport are different steps. Activities with risk of contact, collision or falling require appropriate medical clearance in the return-to-sport pathway; follow your treating clinician’s instructions.
