Concussion Management In Santa Monica

Comprehensive Concussion Treatment

While athletes often consider them mild, concussions are actually a traumatic brain injury that can impact your daily functioning. Appropriate recovery often requires physiotherapy tailored to the needs of the concussed patients and focused on restoring your cognitive, physical, and behavioral symptoms. Don’t brush a concussion off. Let us support your recovery so you can get truly well!

Address The Full Range of Concussion Symptoms

The root cause of a concussion – Rapid movement of the brain due to extreme motion or a hard hit – Can often not be prevented. However, your physiotherapist will carefully evaluate all of your symptoms after a concussion and develop a treatment plan to address them. Here are some of the symptoms, both short-term and long, that we here at Dr. Roy Nissim can help you overcome:

  • Headaches
  • Fogginess
  • Muscle weakness from recovery
  • Dizziness
  • Poor balance
  • Memory
  • Physical endurance

Each of these symptoms is addressed with a focus on both helping you get the rest you need to heal and helping you get the treatment you require to return to your daily life, activities and sports.
