Concussions are a common injury which we see in patients who play:
- football
- soccer
- hockey
- rugby
- basketball
- diving
- trampolining
- volleyball
- boxing
- wrestling
- as well as after car accidents.
One crucial physiotherapy service we offer to our local sports teams, athletes of every level, as well as those who have had a car accident is our CONCUSSION CARE.
If you, your team, or a loved one are involved in a sport which puts you at risk for concussion, or you have recently experience one, contact us for more info!
