We Tackle Sport Concussions Head-On!
What is a concussion?
Concussion is a mild form of traumatic brain injury that results in functional injury to the brain. It is caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or body that causes the brain to move quickly back and forth. Concussions may occur with sports injuries or falls.
