Vestibular Rehabilitation

The vestibular system creates a sense of balance and spatial orientation needed for coordinating movement with balance. Dizziness, nausea, and imbalance are common obstacles following a concussion. Fortunately, these symptoms are usually not permanent and can be treated through vestibular physical therapy.

Hand-Eye Coordination Activities

The eyes are controlled by the brain, so when someone experiences an injury to the brain, such as a concussion, the visual system can be affected thus affecting hand-eye coordination. At Ultimate Therapy, we will create the perfect challenge so you can re-gain coordination skills.

Oculomotor Reflexes and Tracking

Impairments in the ocular system that are often associated with concussions may include vision issues, brain fog, dizziness and visual instability. Our Physical Therapists will provide you with exercises specifically designed to re-train your oculomotor reflexes and tracking.

Sport Specific Exercises

Our therapists at Ultimate Therapy want to make sure you are well prepared and equipped for SAFE return to your sport following recovery from a concussion.  Our Physical Therapists use a whole body approach to fine-tune your movement patterns and re-gain strength.

Balance and Proprioception Training

Concussions often negatively affect balance and proprioception or body position. If left unaddressed, these deficits may leave individuals vulnerable to additional concussive and non-concussive injuries.

Posture and Body Mechanics

Creating habits that promote proper posture and body mechanics, which is  the correct use of muscles to move or lift objects, can reduce lingering symptoms of a concussion and reduce the risk of reoccurrence.
