CAIRNS CONCUSSION SPORTS CLUB CARE

Cairns concussion sports club care is an area we are passionate about at Wellness Embodied. We are accredited through Complete Concussions, which is the largest concussion program in the world, sharing testing, evidence-based treatment options, results and recovery to create a comprehensive knowledge base for health care practitioners providing concussion care.

CAIRNS CONCUSSION SPORTS CLUB CARE

Our Cairns concussion sports club care is suitable for a range of sporting teams and athletes, catering to everyone from grassroots and junior teams, right through to professionals. Its approach is comprehensive and includes pre-season testing to obtain baseline measurements, concussion testing and treatment, rehabilitation and recovery.

PRE-SEASON TESTING

Pre-season or pre-event testing is an investment in you, or your teams’, wellbeing. By having recorded performance results for individuals on a range of brain functions, including memory, reaction time, visual tracking and balance, we have the data available for comparison if concussion occurs. This allows us to accurately understand the severity of a concussion and prepare appropriate treatment.

INDIVIDUAL TREATMENT

If a concussion injury is suspected, early assessment and treatment is paramount. The earlier you seek our Cairns concussion sports club care, the better your recovery outcomes will be. All treatment plans will be tailored to suit the specific and presenting needs of the individual and may include integrated manual therapy, exercise rehabilitation and cardio programs and patient support.

HOW DO I KNOW IF THERE IS A CONCUSSION?

The best way to know if there is a concussion, is to test for it. While you might think it would be obvious, such as loss of consciousness, headache or neck pain – resulting from a hard knock to the head, through accident or contact – the symptoms of concussion can be obvious or discrete and might also include nausea or vomiting, dizziness and loss of balance.

Again, that’s why baseline testing is such an important part of our Cairns concussion sports club care services. We can use this information regarding brain functions, to not only assess the level of the concussion and treat accordingly, but also to know when recovery has sufficiently occurred to allow a safe return to sport. The practitioners at our Cairns Complete Concussions Clinic may utilise a range of treatment modalities during your rehabilitation.

CAIRNS CONCUSSION SMARTPHONE APP

To streamline our Cairns concussion sports club care and treatment, we can also use the Concussion Tracker smartphone app. This app allows concussed patients to record and provide regular symptom updates to our team of Allied Health Professionals, and record recovery status and timeline.

The app can also be used to conduct sideline assessments and scan and share medical documents.

You can download the Complete Concussions, Concussion Tracker app for free through the App Store and Google Play.
