Concussion Recovery
Specialized assessment and treatment for persistent post-concussion symptoms.
A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head. While most people recover fully within weeks, a significant minority experience persistent symptoms that interfere with daily life.

Cognitive

Post-Concussion Syndrome
When symptoms persist beyond the typical recovery window (usually defined as beyond 3 months), this is often termed post-concussion syndrome.
