A concussion is more than a headache, dizziness, visual strain, and brain fog can linger for weeks. Physical therapy helps you recover safely and return to school, work, and sport.
Concussion (mild traumatic brain injury) rehab is a physical therapy program that addresses the neck, the vestibular (inner-ear and balance) system, and vision, plus a graded, symptom-limited return to activity. Rather than resting in a dark room for weeks, current evidence supports active, guided recovery.
“Highest-quality people providing the most evidence-based medicine that produces the best outcomes and creates the best value.”
We treat the neck and the inner-ear and balance systems that drive most lingering symptoms.
Gaze-stabilization, habituation, and balance work retrain how your eyes, inner ear, and body coordinate.
A stepwise, symptom-limited progression back to school, work, and sport, safely.
We coordinate with your care team on the recovery and return-to-play plan.
Concussion symptoms go well beyond headache. We commonly address:
Post-concussion headaches, often neck-related.
Reported in most concussions; often from the inner ear or neck.
Trouble focusing, tracking, or tolerating screens and busy environments.
Decreased concentration and fatigue that limit school and work.
Whiplash-type neck pain that often accompanies a head injury.
Symptoms that flare with exertion, retrained with graded aerobic work.

No. After a brief rest of 24 to 48 hours, current evidence supports gradually returning to symptom-limited activity, guided by your therapist.
Physical therapists evaluate and treat the neck, vestibular (balance), and visual systems and guide a graded return to activity.
It varies. Many people improve within weeks; your therapist tracks symptoms and progresses you step by step.
Return follows a stepwise progression, you advance when you stay symptom-free at each stage.
In most cases, no. Rules vary by plan and state.
Your first visit is a full evaluation, your therapist reviews your history, watches how you move, and builds a plan around your goals. In most states you can come directly, no referral needed.
