Concussion Clinic Torquay
Concussion Central offers comprehensive assessment and rehabilitation for adults and children with dizziness, headaches and persisting symptoms following concussion and mild traumatic brain injury.
Concussion Assessment and Management
At Concussion Central, we provide comprehensive care for individuals experiencing concussion, dizziness and head injury, whether symptoms are immediate or develop over time.
Recovery from concussion varies from person to person — some recover quickly, while others experience persisting symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, brain fog, neck pain, visual problems, fatigue, anxiety or trouble concentrating.
Our physiotherapists use a thorough multi-system approach to concussion assessment and management, identifying the underlying causes of your symptoms and guiding your recovery with individualised rehabilitation.
From initial assessment through to full return to sport, work, or study, we offer clear, structured support at each stage of your recovery journey.

A Focused Approach to Concussion Care
Concussion Central was established to bring a purposeful approach to concussion assessment and rehabilitation, supporting accurate assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of this complex condition.
Our team has broad experience managing concussions across all age groups, from children and adolescents to adults and athletes, including sport-related and non-sport-related concussions. Our approach is guided by current research and contemporary concussion guidelines, ensuring every patient receives care that reflects the latest evidence.
What distinguishes us is our commitment to thoroughly understanding your symptoms. Rather than relying on generic advice alone, we assess how a concussion may be affecting areas such as the vestibular system, visual system, neck, balance, cognition, exercise tolerance and your overall function. This allows us to identify the underlying cause, not just the symptoms.
The Concussion Central Difference
Evidence-Informed Approach
Our team is highly trained in concussion management, using the latest research and evidence-informed assessment and rehabilitation approaches to guide your care.

No two concussions are the same. We tailor every treatment plan to your symptoms, assessment findings, goals, and stage of recovery.
Support Across Recovery Stages
From early assessment through to return to sport, work, school and everyday activities, we provide structured guidance based on your presentation and progress.
Living With Concussion Symptoms Can Be Difficult
Symptoms after a concussion can impact day-to-day function, work, school, sport and general wellbeing. They can be disruptive, frustrating, and at times all-consuming.
At Concussion Central, we aim to help you move forward with confidence through comprehensive assessment, personalised treatment, and ongoing support, working with you to return to the activities that matter most.
