Rehabilitative Care For TBI & Concussion
A traumatic brain injury (TBI), commonly referred to as a concussion, can leave you dealing with persistent headaches, dizziness, nausea, insomnia, and irritability long after the initial injury.
Recovery Built Around Your Symptoms
ECI specializes in rehabilitative concussion therapy following acute injuries, whether from a car accident, a sports collision, or a fall.
No two brain injuries behave the same. One patient's dizziness is another's insomnia, and a protocol that ignores that difference leaves symptoms untreated. Our doctors build a recovery plan around your specific symptoms instead of a generic protocol.
Head trauma also frequently involves the neck and upper spine. We evaluate and treat both together, because unresolved cervical injuries can keep concussion symptoms alive for months.
Signs of a Concussion or Mild TBI
Symptoms we address every day, often long after the initial injury.
Headaches & Dizziness
Persistent head pain, balance issues, and lightheadedness following an impact are the most common signals of an unresolved concussion.
- Persistent post-impact headaches
- Balance and coordination issues
- Lightheadedness and nausea
Sleep & Mood Changes
Insomnia, irritability, and mood swings are common after a brain injury, and they respond to treatment when the underlying injury is addressed.
- Insomnia and disrupted sleep
- Irritability and mood swings
- Fatigue that won't resolve
Vision & Focus Issues
Blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and trouble concentrating can all follow a concussion, affecting work, school, and daily life.
- Blurred or strained vision
- Light and noise sensitivity
- Difficulty concentrating
Don't Wait Out a Brain Injury
Waiting for concussion symptoms to fade on their own is the most common mistake we see. Early evaluation leads to a faster, more complete recovery, and prevents symptoms from settling in for the long term.
Phased Rehabilitation
Recovery moves through careful stages, from symptom management to gradual return to work, school, or sport.
Neck & Spine Included
Cervical spine injuries often accompany head trauma and can prolong symptoms if left untreated. We treat both.
Tracked Against Your Symptoms
Your specific symptoms are the benchmark. Treatment adapts as they improve, not on a fixed calendar.
Your Concussion Recovery Path
A phased protocol that respects how brain injuries actually heal.
Evaluation & Baseline
A thorough neurological and cervical exam documents your symptoms and establishes your starting point.
Symptom Management
Targeted care calms headaches, dizziness, and sensitivity so your brain gets the conditions it needs to heal.
Graduated Rehabilitation
Vestibular, visual, and cervical rehab rebuild tolerance step by step, without triggering setbacks.
Return to Life
A structured return to work, school, or sport, with follow-up to make sure symptoms stay gone.
I had been dealing with post-concussion symptoms for months after my accident. The care here finally gave me my life back.
Concussion & TBI Questions
How do I know if I have a concussion?
Headaches, dizziness, nausea, sleep changes, irritability, and trouble focusing after an impact are all warning signs. If you experienced any head impact, get evaluated even if symptoms seem mild.
How soon after a head injury should I be seen?
As soon as possible. Early evaluation leads to a faster, more complete recovery, and early documentation matters if your injury came from an accident.
Can symptoms show up days after the injury?
Yes. Concussion symptoms commonly emerge or worsen in the days following an impact. Delayed symptoms are still very treatable, but don't wait them out.
Why does my neck matter for a concussion?
The same impact that injures the brain frequently strains the neck and upper spine. Unresolved cervical injuries can mimic or prolong concussion symptoms, so we treat both together.
How long does concussion recovery take?
Many patients improve within weeks with proper care, while untreated concussions can linger for months. Your recovery plan and timeline are based on your specific symptoms.
Is this covered after a car accident?
Concussion care following an accident is typically covered, and we handle the documentation and coordination with insurance and legal teams.
