Concussion Baseline Testing, Concussion Assessment and Rehabilitation

BASELINE TESTING

Concussion Baseline Testing

Baseline concussion screenings are a vital part of our approach. These screenings make it easier for us to reassess post injury, assisting with the diagnosis and appropriate management of concussions.

CONCUSSION ASSESSMENT

Unley Concussion Clinic Assessment

Our comprehensive assessments look at a variety of factors, assessing all body systems that can be affected by a concussion. This allows us to fully understand the extent of your injury.

CONCUSSION REHABILITATION

Following our assessments, we work with you to develop a treatment plan that is tailored to you. We understand that every concussion is different, which is why we take a multidisciplinary approach to your care. 

Early targeted intervention following a concussion significantly improves clinical outcomes and better recovery

Why Unley Concussion Clinic?

At Unley Concussion Clinic, we are part of a global network of leading providers in concussion care, constantly looking to improve the assessment and management of concussion guided by the latest in quality research. We understand that better information leads to better decisions and, ultimately, better outcomes. That’s why we offer comprehensive objective assessment services utilising the latest in validated technologies to get the best information.
Due to the high prevalence of cervicogenic and vestibular oculomotor dysfunction post concussion, physiotherapists have taken an increasingly important role in the assessment and rehabilitation of concussion. We work collaboratively with other health professionals and are able to refer you to the appropriate specialist services should your symptoms indicate. 

We are part of the Your Brain Health Community, a network of providers aiming to deliver a higher standard of evidence-based concussion care globally. Your Brain Health have assisted and guided the creation of our assessment and rehabilitation protocols. We follow Your Brain Health guidelines for baseline assessment and their team is able to assist us when baseline screening large groups such as for schools or sports clubs.

Baseline Concussion Screenings

Baseline concussion screenings are a vital part of our approach. These screenings, which include brain health history, vestibular ocular motor screenings, balance and reaction time assessments, allow us to establish a starting point for your brain health. This baseline makes it easier for us to reassess, assisting with the diagnosis and appropriate management of concussions.

Why Baseline Testing Matters

Baseline testing is important because it provides us with a snapshot of your brain health before any injury occurs. This allows us to compare your current status to your baseline, allowing for more sensitive analysis of any deficits or dysfunctions that may be present post-injury. This leads to more targeted rehabilitation and the ability to track you back to your healthy baseline, leading to improved decisions in regards to return-to-play and return-to-learn. Targeted rehabilitation also leads to quicker recovery and improved outcomes. 

Comprehensive Concussion Assessments

Concussions can affect multiple body systems, which is why our clinic provides comprehensive assessments that accurately identify these areas. Our assessments are multimodal, meaning that we look at a variety of factors to ensure that we understand the full extent of your injury.
