What Is Concussion Management?

At Reform Clinics, our team is highly trained and certified in the management of concussions and concussion-related disorders. Our concussion clinic in Burlington offers a comprehensive approach, including baseline testing, acute injury management, and chronic injury management.


Concussions are among the most common sports injuries and are often mismanaged. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the proper treatment and management of a concussion to ensure a full recovery. Our concussion management services include baseline testing, which measures brain function and other essential parameters. This testing is particularly important for individuals involved in high-risk occupations or high-impact sports. The annual test establishes a "baseline" for your practitioner and you to work towards in the event of a concussion.


If you're visiting a Reform Clinics physiotherapist or chiropractor and know you're at a higher risk of concussions, be sure to book your baseline testing appointment right away. Taking this proactive step can help prevent future regrets and ensure you receive the best possible care for concussion management.

Why Get Tested?

Baseline testing measures various aspects of brain function that could be affected following a concussion. In the event of a concussion, comparing an individual's post-injury state to their baseline parameters ensures a full and safe recovery. This is crucial, as secondary concussions occurring before complete recovery can lead to long-term and permanent brain damage. Here are some specific benefits of baseline testing:

  • Ensures Accurate Diagnosis

    Baseline tests, typically performed annually for healthy athletes or high-risk workers, examine balance, reaction time, strength, memory, concentration, visual tracking, and processing speed. This provides healthcare professionals with an understanding of your brain's healthy functioning, allowing for proper diagnosis in case of a concussion.

  • Allows Safe Return to Activities

    Without knowing your brain's healthy functioning, practitioners may struggle to determine when it's safe for you to resume sports or regular activities. Baseline testing helps prevent returning to activities too soon, which could cause further complications.

  • Proactive Approach

    Baseline testing is recommended for individuals involved in high-risk sports like rugby or football, or those with high-risk occupations such as construction work or manual labor jobs.

  • Acute Concussion Management

    This approach focuses on assessing neurocognitive functioning, balance, and visual aspects, enabling a safe and timely return to work or play after specific testing has deemed it appropriate.

  • Chronic Concussion Management

    This comprehensive, multi-stage assessment and rehabilitation strategy addresses long-term effects associated with concussions or concussion-related disorders, such as vestibular and balance issues, visual disorders, and headaches.

  • Can Full Recovery Be Achieved After a Concussion?

    With proper treatment and care, full recovery is possible. Baseline testing provides healthy parameters for comparison post-concussion, making it easier to determine if full recovery has been achieved.

  • What Recovery Time Can I Expect After a Concussion?

    Recovery time varies individually. Minor concussions may take a few weeks or months for full recovery, while more severe or secondary concussions may require longer or ongoing management.
