Concussion Clinic Altona

Concussion Central provides care for adults and children with dizziness, headaches and persisting symptoms after concussion, and mild traumatic brain injury.

Concussion Assessment and Management

At Concussion Central, we provide thorough care for individuals experiencing concussion, dizziness and head injury, whether symptoms appear immediately or emerge 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 Considered Approach to Concussion Care

Concussion Central was established to provide a dedicated approach to concussion assessment and rehabilitation, to properly assess, diagnose, and treat 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 makes us different is our commitment to truly 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 causes, rather than addressing symptoms alone.

At Concussion Central, we’re here to assist you in moving forward with confidence through detailed assessment, tailored treatment, and ongoing support, guiding you back to the activities that matter most.
