What is a concussion?
A brain injury caused by a blow to the head or body alters the way the brain works and causes symptoms like headaches and dizziness. Loss of consciousness does not always occur upon receiving a concussion.
Hockey, among other sports, is a leading cause of concussions in young players today. Our goal is to train athletes in the prevention of this injury.
In the event of a concussion, our treatment plan is specifically designed to help injured athletes return to sport and everyday activities in a shorter period with maximum recovery.
