What Is Concussion Management? Understanding the Benefits
Concussion management is a structured, evidence-based process that identifies brain injury, monitors recovery and facilitates a safe return to activity. Concussions often involve subtle changes in brain chemistry, blood flow and function that require specialized care.
Benefits include:
Our three pronged approach:
Reintegration Programs
When properly treated, the majority of first-time concussions have no long-term health implications. But if the patient suffers another head injury or concussion before the first one is completely healed, the chances of more serious problems are significantly higher. Our Return-to-Play and Return-to-Learn processes help concussion sufferers gradually and purposely reintegrate into daily life and sport activities to help prevent further injury.
Baseline Testing
Patients can be tested before a concussion is suffered. The baseline test can be compared to post-injury results, increasing the accuracy and speed of diagnosis. Our clinic uses the most comprehensive baseline testing programs outside of major-league sports.
Specialized Treatment
More accurate diagnosis helps produce more effective treatments and rehabilitation, which improves outcomes and reduces long-term problems.

Frequent Asked Questions
What is included in a concussion management program?
A full assessment with baseline/post-injury testing, balance/vestibular/vision evaluation, cognitive tracking and guided return-to-activity planning.
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
Not always— we can assess your situation and guide you on whether a physician referral is needed.
How long does recovery take?
Recovery varies per person. Early intervention and structured reintegration protocols significantly improve outcomes.
Is assessment data covered by insurance?
Many extended health or insurance plans cover concussion assessments; we will help you with paperwork and referrals.
What happens if I return to activity too early?
Returning too soon increases the risk of re-injury and prolonged symptoms— that’s why our return-to-learn/play/work programs are careful and phased.

Recovery time varies for each person. Most patients improve within a few weeks with proper treatment, while others with complex symptoms may need longer, guided rehabilitation.
Do you accept OHIP and major insurance providers?
We are not currently accepting OHIP patients. Our East York clinic is no longer accepting OHIP patients, but this may change in the future, so please check with the clinic first. We bill most major extended health insurance plans, motor vehicle accident insurance and WSIB directly.
