Enhanced Quality of Life

Vestibular dysfunction or concussions can significantly hamper one’s quality of life due to various debilitating symptoms associated with these conditions. We work towards bettering this aspect through holistic care methodologies. With regular treatments, there’s an evident upliftment in the overall quality of life as patients begin to regain control over their daily activities free from discomforts caused by vestibular problems or concussions—making each day healthier and happier.

What should I do if I think I have a concussion?

If you suspect that you've sustained a concussion, it's important that you seek medical attention immediately. A mild traumatic brain injury or concussion often results from a blow to the head and can cause various cognitive symptoms such as memory loss and confusion. Notably, it doesn't always entail loss of consciousness.

How long does the Vestibular and Concussion Treatment process take?

The duration for Vestibular and Concussion Treatment varies greatly among individuals because it relies on several factors like the severity of injury or dysfunction, individual health conditions prior to injury and their personal recovery rate. Generally speaking though, patients could expect their treatment process to last anywhere from a few weeks to several months. It's important to understand that complete recovery from a concussion or vestibular dysfunction requires patience and consistency. Your physiotherapist will regularly evaluate your progress and adjust your treatment plan as necessary. Stick with the plan, stay active within comfortable limits, and maintain a positive mindset for best results.

What is involved in the initial assessment for Vestibular and Concussion Treatment at Mimico Physiotherapy?

The initial assessment at Mimico Physiotherapy involves a comprehensive review of your medical history along with physical and neurological evaluations tailored to identify the presence of vestibular dysfunction or concussion. Our expert therapists may perform various balance, gait, ocular motor (eye movement), and positional tests to help make an accurate diagnosis. Post-diagnosis, we'll engage you in an informative discussion regarding the findings of your evaluation. This includes explaining what the problem is, its possible causes and how our customized treatment can aid in resolving it. We also ensure to address any concerns or questions you might have regarding your condition or treatment plan during this session.

Will I make a full recovery?

The prospect of complete recovery from a vestibular dysfunction or concussion depends on various factors such as the severity of the injury, overall health condition, age, and adherence to the treatment plan. Most patients do make significant recoveries and return to their usual activities with minimal to no symptoms. The initial stages post-injury can be challenging. You may experience various physical discomforts like dizziness or headaches. But rest assured, these are common occurrences in the healing process and will likely subside as you progress through your treatment plan. Your cooperation and consistent participation in therapy sessions is vital to expedite this process. Additionally, our team at Mimico Physiotherapy uses a patient-centered approach that encompasses education on self-care strategies alongside manual therapy and specialized exercises. This holistic approach supports not just physical recovery but also helps patients mentally adapt to their condition during recovery stages. While we can't guarantee 100% symptom resolution for all cases due to biological factors beyond our control, we strive for your optimal health improvement using all resources at our disposal.

Signs of Vestibular Disorders

Understanding symptoms of vestibular disorders is the first step to appropriate intervention. Key signs include persistent dizziness, vertigo, balance problems, and visual disturbances. Such disruptions can seriously affect a person's ability to lead an active and enjoyable life.

Common causes of these disorders involve age-related degeneration, viral or bacterial infections in the ear, or injury to the head. The impact on daily living can range from mild discomfort to debilitating conditions that hinder mobility and independence.
Signs of a Concussion

Concussions are serious brain injuries that need immediate attention. Warning signs to look out for include headaches, confusion, loss of memory around the time of injury, dizziness, blurred vision or seeing stars.

Other possible indicators are difficulty speaking clearly and maintaining balance. Concussions commonly result from blows to the head during sports activities or accidents but can also occur due to severe whiplash injuries. Immediate professional care following such an incident can significantly affect recovery outcomes and future health status.
