Concussion Clinic Essendon
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 support individuals experiencing concussion, dizziness and head injury, whether symptoms present straight away or develop gradually 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 apply a detailed multi-system approach to concussion assessment and management, identifying the contributing factors behind your symptoms and guiding your recovery through personalised 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 founded to offer a focused approach to concussion assessment and rehabilitation, providing thorough assessment, diagnosis, and management of this complex condition.
Our team has wide-ranging experience managing concussions across all age groups, from children and adolescents to adults and athletes, including both sport-related and non-sport-related concussions. Our approach draws on current research and contemporary concussion guidelines, ensuring every patient receives care that reflects the latest available evidence.
Our point of difference is our commitment to genuinely 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 contributing factors behind your symptoms, not just the symptoms themselves.
