Facility: Toronto Concussion Clinic
Summary
We specialize in post-concussion syndrome. Our clinic was started to help post-concussion patients get the necessary specialized care they need. The scope of our practice is behavioural and lifestyle treatment that focuses on retraining patients’ physiology and psychology. Our program consists of an interdisciplinary team to assist your primary health care provider and your rehab team with your recovery. A unique management plan for every patient is paramount to success; there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ remedy.
