Vertigo, dizziness, and imbalance are frequently observed following a concussion, often accompanied by cognitive impairments. During your evaluation, we will assess your balance, coordination, and cognitive function to gain a comprehensive understanding of your symptoms. Marissa Furka, PT, DPT, a certified concussion rehabilitation specialist, will carefully review the data from your initial evaluation to develop a tailored treatment plan. She will work closely with you throughout your recovery, ensuring that your functional deficits are addressed while minimizing the risk of exacerbating symptoms such as headaches, which are often present in concussion injuries.
Upon discharge, you will receive a personalized home exercise program, which will be progressively advanced as tolerated, to support your recovery. This program is designed to help you regain functional independence and return to daily activities and recreational pursuits at the highest level possible.
