Get the proper care you need to safely return to your preferred sport or activities after your concussion.
Concussion is an injury resulting from any action that causes the head to shake violently. This includes blows to the head as well as situations where the head is not struck. As a functional brain injury, imaging will not show damage if you’ve experienced a concussion.
Physical therapy can be an integral part of recovering from a concussion. Through dizziness and balance training, headache management, and safe exercise progression, physical therapy can help to give the best environment for the brain and the body to heal itself. At Health In Motion, we use evidence-based training and the latest research to provide cutting-edge concussion treatment—so you confidently and safely return to your favorite sport or hobbies. We are specialists locally with our therapists and athletic trainers, and we maintain relationships with physical medicine physicians, neurologists, and sports medicine orthopedists that have specialized practices for appropriate referrals and prudent local management at home.
