Why should you contact us following a
concussion?
Our very comprehensive baseline is nearly 90 minutes long. Cognitive, visual, reaction time, balance and many other aspects are evaluated during our initial assessments.
An evaluation of the cervical spine is also very important because if the force of the impact was strong enough to move your brain in your skull, we can assume that the impact may have caused cervical problems as well.
Our doctors, specialized in sports medicine, will also be able to ensure that it is indeed a concussion and will be able to refer you for an optimal return.
What aspects to work on for an optimal return to normal?
- visual system
- vestibular system
- cognitive processes
- other sensory processes
Do not hesitate to contact us in order to do your annual baseline to have a reference point in the event of a concussion.
