Physiotherapy for concussion

Many people will suffer a concussion during their life, whether while playing a sport, in a road accident or during an accidental fall. The most common symptoms are headache and disorientation, but the total scope of symptoms is much broader. Post-concussion rehabilitation is an expertise in physiotherapy that addresses precisely these problems. With our expert concussion physiotherapists, Physio Plateau will help you regain your previous abilities and return to sport and regular work as adequately as possible.

What to expect from your first session?

During your first visit in physiotherapy for a concussion, the therapist will first do the subjective examination, during which he will ask you questions to clarify the context of the injury and find out the evolution of symptoms since the initial trauma.

Subsequently, the therapist will perform the objective examination, including a cervical and cranial evaluation, a neurological assessment and specific tests for concussion in order to evaluate memory, concentration, balance and orientation.

The results of these different tests will help the therapist guide you towards the best personalized strategies for school, sports and professional adaptations. He will plan the necessary follow-ups in the clinic with you to successfully complete your rehabilitation.

To consider before the first visit:

Have the results of all the tests you have done since the trauma (medical examinations, initial test done on the field by the team therapist, summary of treatments by other professionals, etc).
