Fall contact sports (hockey, football and rugby) are quickly approaching which means now is a great time to talk about concussions. A concussion is caused by a direct blow to the head or indirect blow to the body that may result in dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision and unconsciousness. A diagnosed concussion equals immediate removal from play, along with rest and sensory deprivation for 24 hours. Rehabilitation including manual therapy, visual and vestibular retraining and sport-specific readiness is part of the 5-stage protocol to obtain full clearance to return to play/sport.
