Concussions are complex injuries that affect the brain, often without any physical signs of trauma to the head. At Treloar Physiotherapy Clinic, we understand the challenges that come with this type of injury, including the wide range of symptoms and the impact they can have on your daily life. Our dedicated team is here to support your recovery journey, offering specialized physiotherapy services designed to address and alleviate concussion symptoms.
A concussion is an injury to the brain that can happen with or without a blow to the head. Most concussions resolve within 1-4 weeks, although some people can experience persistent symptoms after this amount of time. Common symptoms are headache, neck pain, fatigue, dizziness, feeling “in a fog” and sleep disturbances. Physiotherapy can be extremely useful in improving concussion symptoms and allowing the person to resume regular physical activities.
An initial concussion assessment is usually 45-60 minutes and is performed to identify and prioritize symptoms related to a concussion. The physical assessment may include testing of the head, eyes, neck, balance, and/or vestibular system. Treatment is based on assessment findings and will include a combination of education and graded exercise, along with manual therapy, vestibular rehabilitation, oculomotor retraining or acupuncture as required.
In some cases, it is possible that a comprehensive initial assessment may aggravate symptoms of a concussion or vestibular disorder, so we recommend that you arrange to have someone ensure your safe transportation following the session.
We offer two time lengths for comprehensive assessments for Concussion Rehabilitation. This is to give you the flexibility for booking according to your individual needs.
You also have the option of a subsequent visit or an extended subsequent visit, depending on the time your therapist determines is best suited for you following your initial assessment.
Enjoy hassle-free direct billing at Treloar Physiotherapy Clinic! We work with a wide variety of major insurance companies, to ensure your focus remains on your recovery, not the paperwork. Feel free to contact us for more information.

When a person has sustained a head injury, it is important to refer them to a concussion clinic as soon as possible. This is because the symptoms of a concussion can vary greatly and may not be immediately apparent. A concussion clinic has healthcare professionals who can provide an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan that will help the individual recover quickly and safely. Post-concussion symptoms that should prompt referral to a concussion clinic include headache, dizziness, confusion, difficulty concentrating, and memory issues.
What Should I Expect During My First Visit for Concussion Rehabilitation?
During your initial visit, expect a comprehensive assessment focusing on your symptoms and medical history. Your physiotherapist will conduct various tests to evaluate your head, neck, balance, and possibly your vision and vestibular system. This session is crucial for a personalized rehabilitation plan. While the assessment is thorough, our team prioritizes your comfort and will adjust the evaluation based on your tolerance to ensure it’s a positive step towards recovery.
How Long Does Concussion Rehabilitation Typically Take?
The duration of concussion rehabilitation varies significantly among individuals, depending on the severity of the concussion and the symptoms presented. While some clients may see substantial improvement within a few weeks, others with more persistent symptoms might require a longer rehabilitation period. Your physiotherapist will monitor your progress closely and adjust your treatment plan as needed to support your recovery journey effectively.
