Concussion Clinic Port Melbourne
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.
Whilst some people recover from concussion quickly, others experience persisting symptoms including headaches, dizziness, brain fog, neck pain, visual disturbances, fatigue, anxiety or difficulty 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 your initial assessment through to your full return to sport, work, or study, we provide clear, structured guidance across every stage of your recovery.

A Focused 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 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.
