Concussion Rehabilitation

Concussions are silent. Speak Up.

Concussions, also known as traumatic brain injuries, are silent, or invisible. It isn’t like a bruise or broken arm that an injury is visible to the naked eye, the “symptoms” are all internal and can range from a headache, to nausea, to depression, to difficulty concentrating, to ocular disturbances and much more. Research for concussion rehabilitation advances regularly, completely changing how concussions are dealt with. Where we once thought rest was the best way to rehabilitate, research has shown that movement and controlled exercise is the key to successful rehabilitation.

At Clinique Santé & Physique, we look at all aspects of a concussion, how it affects the person, and build a personalized rehabilitation program. We regularly monitor progress and all medical professionals communicate regularly to ensure successful rehabilitation.
