Concussion Care
If your child experiences a concussion, find comfort in the evidence-based concussion care and return-to-play recommendations that we provide, including:
- Diagnosis
- Concussion management through rest and activity modification
- Return-to-play recommendations as symptoms resolve
In addition, we offer insight about the types of modifications that can be made to promote faster healing. The key to concussion management is personalizing it to each child’s unique circumstances to ensure they receive the best care possible.
Most concussion symptoms improve with rest and modified activities. But for more serious cases, we can coordinate your care with additional services such as vision therapy, balance training, physical therapy, occupational therapy and pain management.
