Following a thorough assessment, we will discuss the findings with you, so you have a clear understanding of what’s going on.
Based on your initial assessment and diagnosis, we'll design a treatment programme just for you, and support you through your recovery.
You can expect to gain confidence and control back over your body, and will generally make a complete recovery.
Our team have completed extensive training in this area, so you can be confident you are in expert hands.
Vestibular complications are common after a concussion. Our physiotherapy team works as part of the Axis ACC Concussion Service, providing individual treatment and support for those suffering from symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, ringing ears, nausea, fatigue, visual disturbances and other common concussion effects.
If you believe you have suffered a concussion and are suffering ongoing side effects, speak to your doctor about being referred into our service. Your GP can send a referral directly to us so that we can initiate your treatment as soon as possible.
Exercise programmes are a common form of therapy designed to reduce vertigo and dizziness, enhance gaze stability or visual focus, improve balance and stability and reduce the risk of falls.
We may also be able to help with other effects, such as neck pain and tension, headaches, nausea, fatigue, poor concentration and de-conditioning.
Common treatments include, repositioning manoeuvres, head and eye co-ordination exercises, balance and gait retraining, hands-on soft tissue and joint mobilisation, aerobic re-conditioning, and fall prevention strategies.
Physiotherapy services have different prices depending on your needs and type of injury, refer to our pricing page for more information.
