Concussion Rehabilitation FAQs
Q: What are the common signs of a concussion, and how do I know if I need treatment?
A: Common concussion symptoms include headaches, dizziness, nausea, sensitivity to light, and difficulty concentrating. If you’ve had a blow to the head or a sudden jolt and you notice lingering symptoms—even if they are mild—it’s advisable to seek professional assessment. Early evaluation and treatment can help speed up your recovery and prevent complications.
Q: Do I need a referral from my doctor to start concussion rehabilitation?
A: In most cases, a referral from a doctor isn’t necessary to begin physiotherapy services. You can book an appointment directly with Chartier Physiothérapie. However, some extended health insurance plans may require a doctor’s referral, so it’s best to check with your insurance provider.
Q: How long does concussion rehabilitation usually take?
A: The duration of rehabilitation varies depending on the severity of your symptoms and your individual recovery process. Some people notice improvement after just a few sessions, while others may need longer-term care. Our therapists will continuously assess your progress and adjust your treatment plan to ensure optimal recovery.
Q: What types of treatments are involved in concussion rehabilitation?
A: Our concussion rehabilitation program may include balance and coordination exercises, vestibular therapy, manual therapy, and gradual return-to-activity protocols. We also provide education on symptom management and lifestyle adjustments to help you recover safely and effectively.
Q: Are concussion rehabilitation services covered by insurance or direct billing?
A: Many extended health insurance plans cover physiotherapy services, including concussion rehabilitation. At Chartier Physiothérapie, we offer direct billing to most major insurance providers, minimizing your out-of-pocket expenses. We recommend verifying your coverage details with your provider before starting treatment.
