1. Understanding Concussions: What You Need to Know
Concussions are mild traumatic brain injuries caused by a blow or jolt to the head. At Coastal Sports and Wellness, we believe that understanding the nature of concussions is the first step toward proper care. Symptoms can include headaches, dizziness, sensitivity to light, nausea, and memory issues, and they vary in intensity and duration.
2. Why Physiotherapy Is Essential for Concussion Recovery
Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in concussion recovery by addressing both neurological and physical symptoms. Our physiotherapists use evidence-based techniques to help patients regain balance, reduce headaches, and manage cognitive fatigue, ensuring a smoother and safer return to normal activities.
3. Our Concussion Assessment Process
At Coastal Sports and Wellness, we conduct a comprehensive concussion assessment that includes a neurological exam, balance and coordination testing, visual tracking evaluation, and symptom scoring. This helps us create a customized treatment plan based on the individual’s symptoms and stage of recovery.
4. Vestibular Rehabilitation for Dizziness and Balance
One of the most common post-concussion symptoms is dizziness or balance problems. Our vestibular rehabilitation program focuses on restoring inner ear and brain coordination, using targeted exercises to reduce symptoms and improve stability and spatial awareness.
5. Manual Therapy to Address Neck and Spinal Tension
Whiplash and neck injuries often accompany concussions, contributing to headaches and reduced mobility. Our physiotherapists use manual therapy techniques like soft tissue release and joint mobilizations to relieve tension and support overall neurological recovery.
6. Guided Return-to-Play and Return-to-Work Protocols
We help athletes and professionals gradually resume their routines with guided return-to-play and return-to-work protocols. These protocols ensure that patients do not return too soon, reducing the risk of re-injury and promoting long-term neurological health.
7. Exercise Therapy for Cognitive and Physical Recovery
Light aerobic exercise, under the supervision of a trained physiotherapist, can help stimulate brain healing. We provide tailored exercise programs that gradually reintroduce activity while monitoring symptoms to ensure safe progression.
8. Monitoring Progress and Adjusting Your Treatment Plan
Every concussion is different. That’s why we regularly monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed. This flexible approach ensures that you’re getting the right care at the right time during every phase of recovery.
9. Education and Support for Patients and Families
Recovery from a concussion isn’t just physical—it’s emotional too. We provide education for patients and their families about what to expect, how to manage symptoms at home, and when to seek further help. Knowledge empowers recovery.
