Request AppointmentWhat Is Concussion Therapy?
Concussion therapy is a highly useful tool in supporting recovery from traumatic brain injury.
During concussion therapy, you can expect to work with a highly experienced Ottawa physiotherapist who will evaluate the severity of your brain trauma and match you with tricks and strategies that can reduce discomfort, alleviate painful symptoms, and improve brain functionality.
How Can Concussion Therapy Help?
All too often, it is these symptoms of a concussion that lead to the greatest amount of discomfort.
Physiotherapy can encourage a return to feeling better by restoring strength to atrophied muscles and improving endurance. This can be achieved through a combination of muscle-training activities and aerobics.
However, it is important to work with a physiotherapist to gain guidance regarding the best activities for your body’s needs post-brain injury. Working out alone could lead to further injury.
Your physiotherapist will customize a strength-building program for you, as well as guide you through aerobic moves that help you regain that endurance.
What Does Concussion Therapy Look Like?
Concussion rehab may involve a combination of physiotherapy, targeted massage, specific stretches, vestibular therapy, and eye motion training depending on your symptoms and recovery needs.
Targeted Massage & Stretches
Targeted massage and specific stretches can help reduce headaches and nausea following a concussion.
Eye Motion Training
Eye motion training may be used to help reduce concussion-related symptoms and support improved function.
Vestibular Therapy
Vestibular therapy helps you orient yourself during periods of lightheadedness or loss of balance.
Specialized Concussion Rehabilitation
Physiotherapy programs for concussion often build in vestibular therapy, which helps you orient yourself during periods of lightheadedness or loss of balance.
To encourage this, your physiotherapist will introduce you to specialized activities, including fixing your gaze at a certain point in the distance, or using simple movements to stabilize your core and limbs.
With proper guidance, these strategies can be incredibly helpful in improving quality of life as you recover from a concussion.
