Physical Therapy is part of CMH’s Concussion Rehabilitation Program Team

Concussions can result in several symptoms that affect daily life, work, school, and athletics. The CMH Rehabilitation team is equipped to provide you with a comprehensive evaluation and intervention to help alleviate the negative symptoms often associated with concussion.

As part of concussion rehabilitation, physical therapy helps assess and treat balance and vestibular function, address cervical and thoracic dysfunction, headache pain management, vision screening, functional movement, exertion, strength and range of motion.

Ask your physician for a referral for the CMH Post Concussion Rehabilitation Program.

A new lease on life: a CMH Physical Therapy testimonial

Sean Cain suffered a serious motorcycle accident in 2005. The accident required him to have 17 surgeries in 13 years. Although Sean pursued recovery treatment elsewhere, it wasn’t until he became a patient at CMH in 2017 that he began to see life-changing results. Through a combination of physical, speech, and occupational therapy, Sean was able to finally solve the traumatic brain injury symptoms he had been suffering for over a decade. He credits the caring and understanding rehabilitation staff for the confidence he has regained in himself.
