comprehensive concussion management
A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that alters the way your brain functions. It is caused by a hit, bump or blow to the head, and can appear right away or days later. A severe concussion can have a serious cumulative effect – including debilitating memory loss, chronic headaches and clinical depression. With an estimated four to five million concussions occurring annually, concussion recognition and management is key in a sports health program.
