Concussion Clinic Altona

Concussion Central supports adults and children managing dizziness, headaches and ongoing 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.

Some people recover quickly from concussion, while others experience persisting symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, brain fog, neck pain, visual problems, fatigue, anxiety or difficulty 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 your initial assessment through to full return to sport, work, or study, we provide clear, structured support across each stage of recovery.

A Thorough Approach to Concussion Care

Concussion Central was created to deliver a dedicated approach to concussion assessment and rehabilitation, ensuring this complex condition is properly assessed, diagnosed, and managed.

Our team brings considerable experience in managing concussions across all age groups, from children and adolescents to adults and athletes, covering both sport-related and non-sport-related concussions. Our approach is informed by current research and contemporary concussion guidelines, ensuring every patient receives care aligned with 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.
