A concussion can occur from a strong impact to the body when your brain forcibly moves around in your head such as getting in your car or a football tackle. If you are experiencing symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, cognitive or emotional changes and/or vision changes it is likely that you have a concussion.

Item descriptionConcussions are a functional injury and cannot be seen on imaging. With a concussion your neurons get stretched and sometimes break causing a neurometabolic cascade that disrupts communication between the neurons and the brain. This damage causes the different areas of the brain to not communicate effectively which leads to functional impairments. A concussion is best diagnosed using functional tests and then treated based on each individual’s impairments.
