What Is a Concussion & Why It Needs Specialized Care

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) that disrupts normal brain function. But “mild” doesn’t mean minor. Even a seemingly small bump or jolt can cause complex symptoms that linger for weeks—or months.

Common post-concussion symptoms include:

  • Brain fog and memory issues.
  • Dizziness and balance problems.
  • Headaches and light/sound sensitivity.
  • Sleep disturbances.
  • Fatigue and mood changes.
  • Difficulty concentrating.

Our Approach to Concussion Recovery

Every concussion journey is unique. Whether your injury occurred last week or years ago, we tailor your care based on your symptoms, goals, and how your brain is functioning right now.

Here’s what to expect when you work with us:

1. Initial Assessment

We listen closely. A comprehensive intake form and neurological screening help us understand your concussion history, triggers, and current challenges.

2. Neurological Function Evaluation

We analyze vestibular, visual, and sensory feedback systems using a functional brain form—giving us a clear map of how your nervous system is coping.

3. Individualized Treatment Plan

Based on your results, we design a non-invasive therapy program that may include:

  • Eye movement & visual tracking exercises.
  • Sensory stimulation with light, sound & touch.
  • Balance and proprioception retraining.
  • Infrared light therapy.
  • Gentle body movement integration.

4. Progressive Rehab & Monitoring

We track changes over time, adjusting the plan to ensure consistent, meaningful recovery.

5. Education & Support

We teach you how to self-manage triggers, avoid regressions, and support brain healing with lifestyle changes, movement strategies, and rest protocols.

Concussion Treatment Scarborough FAQs

Reach out if you can’t find what you’re looking for.

Ideally, you should seek professional care within the first few days following a concussion—especially if symptoms like dizziness, headaches, or mental fog persist beyond 48 hours. Early intervention can help reduce the duration and severity of post-concussion symptoms and prevent long-term complications. 

Even if your injury happened weeks or months ago, treatment is still highly beneficial. The brain has an incredible ability to heal with the right support, so whether your concussion is recent or unresolved, starting care sooner rather than later improves the chances of a full recovery.

Yes, symptoms from a concussion don’t always show up right away. Some people experience delayed onset, where signs like memory problems, irritability, or sleep disturbances begin days—or even weeks—after the initial trauma. This can make it difficult to connect the dots between the injury and the symptoms. 

Delayed symptoms are still treatable, and it’s important to get assessed by a professional who understands the complex ways the brain responds to trauma. Ignoring subtle symptoms can lead to prolonged recovery and increase the risk of developing post-concussion syndrome.

While a concussion is the initial injury, post-concussion syndrome (PCS) refers to symptoms that persist long after the expected recovery window—typically beyond 3 to 4 weeks. PCS is more than just lingering headaches; it can affect mood, cognition, and sensory processing. It may even change how you interact with your environment and others. 

PCS often involves dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system and impaired brain connectivity. Recovery requires a more targeted, neurological approach to help reestablish balance and function. If your symptoms aren’t going away, PCS could be the reason, and it’s very treatable with the right care.
