Post-Concussion Care

Move Right Performance Therapy

A concussion can affect far more than just your head. Many people continue to experience symptoms long after the initial injury, including headaches, dizziness, brain fog, balance problems, neck pain, and difficulty returning to normal activities.

At Move Right Performance Therapy, we specialize in one-on-one post-concussion rehabilitation designed to help you recover safely and return to the activities you love.

What Is a Concussion?

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a blow to the head or body that disrupts normal brain function. While some people recover quickly, others develop persistent symptoms that can last weeks or months.

Physical therapy plays a key role in treating the underlying physical causes of post-concussion symptoms.

Common Concussion Symptoms

You may benefit from post-concussion therapy if you are experiencing:

• Headaches
• Dizziness or vertigo
• Balance problems
• Sensitivity to light or noise
• Neck pain or stiffness
• Brain fog or difficulty concentrating
• Fatigue
• Nausea
• Visual disturbances
• Difficulty returning to sports, work, or school

Even if symptoms started days or weeks after the injury, treatment can still help.

At Move Right, every visit is one-on-one with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. We identify the specific systems contributing to your symptoms and create an individualized treatment plan.
