Concussion Management in Cape Town

Concussion can affect daily life, work, and sports participation. Each concussion is different, so we create an assessment and rehabilitation plan based on your needs. We provide comprehensive concussion management, including treatment for Post-Concussion Syndrome. This approach helps patients return safely to full activity.

Concussion Rehabilitation and Sports Injury Care

We provide specialist concussion assessment and rehabilitation after a head injury. Treatment can address vestibular and ocular dysfunction, balance and coordination challenges, cognitive and neurological impairments, and Post-Concussion Syndrome symptoms. Our goal is to support a safe return to work, school, and sport.

Athletes and active people can also receive comprehensive sports injury care. We focus on preventing, treating, and rehabilitating injuries. Services include injury prevention strategies, pre- and post-surgical rehabilitation, biomechanical assessments, and sport-specific strength and conditioning programmes.

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation and Additional Services

We create individual rehabilitation plans after orthopaedic and other surgical procedures. These plans support a smooth return to normal function through early-stage mobilisation techniques, pain management strategies, and targeted strength and flexibility training.

Additional services include dry needling for pain and muscle tension relief, joint mobilisation and soft tissue massage, strapping and bracing for injury support, and ergonomic assessments for workplace-related discomfort. We also offer home visits in the Southern Suburbs region and group exercise classes for strength and conditioning.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

Your first consultation lasts 45 minutes. It includes a detailed review of your medical history and current condition, a physical examination to identify movement dysfunctions, treatment to reduce pain and improve function, and a tailored rehabilitation plan with exercises for home care.

We believe in individual attention. Therefore, we only see one patient at a time. This allows us to give you our full focus and provide a high standard of care throughout your recovery.
