Concussion Management

At Vertex, we take concussion management and post-concussion syndrome rehabilitation seriously. Our specialized program is designed to provide comprehensive care to those who have experienced a concussion. We understand that each patient’s needs are unique, and our experienced doctors of physical therapy work closely with individuals, referring physicians, parents, coaches, and employers to ensure the best possible outcome.

Our concussion management program includes:

• Baseline Vestibular and Cognitive Testing: Our comprehensive baseline testing allows us to identify deficits and tailor our treatment to meet the unique needs of each patient.
• Vestibular/Balance/Ocular Motor Rehabilitation: Our experienced therapists utilize advanced techniques to improve balance and reduce dizziness and other symptoms.
• Vision and Coordination Testing: We utilize specialized testing to identify deficits and provide targeted treatment to improve vision and coordination.
• Orthopaedic Evaluation of the Neck: Our physical therapists assess the neck to identify contributing factors that may be causing headaches.
• Return-to-Play/Activity Program: Once a patient is symptom-free, we initiate a safe and effective return-to-play/activity program.
• Nutritional and Dietary Considerations: We provide guidance and support to optimize nutrition and promote overall wellness.

At Vertex, we understand that concussion management is a vital component of overall health and wellness. Our personalized approach, coupled with our advanced techniques and equipment, ensures that each patient receives the highest level of care possible.
