Publisher's Synopsis
A concussion is a traumatic brain injury that affects your brain function. Effects are usually temporary but can include headaches and problems with concentration, memory, balance, and coordination. Concussions are usually caused by a blow to the head.
The world of concussion care has gone through a seismic shift in the last few years, throwing aside the notion of rest, rest, rest, and replacing it with active therapies directed at specific symptoms involving guided exercise and innovative dual-task testing. From the doctors and clinics leading the field with treadmills, stationary bikes, and vision therapy, to the patients and families who spoke up to share their stories to help others
This book is a positive and encouraging book for parents, coaches, administrators, trainers and clinicians, bringing to light the new treatments, and the resources available online that allow education and access for everyone.
