Concussion Clinic West Melbourne
Concussion Central provides dedicated care for adults and children experiencing dizziness, headaches and persisting symptoms following 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 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 Thorough 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 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.
