- Return to Life – Supporting you to return to sport, study and work.
Returning to activity too soon can lead to prolonged symptoms or re-injury. Our expert physiotherapists ensure you recover at the right pace, reducing the risk of complications.
Baseline Testing
Baseline testing is a proactive approach to concussion management. Baseline testing measures an athletes normal brain function before a sports seasons begins, providing reference points for assessment should a concussion occur throughout the season. This is a comprehensive evaluation that includes balance, reaction time, and cognitive function.
Why is baseline testing important?
- Faster, more accurate diagnosis – helps detect subtle changes in brain function post-injury
- Personalised recovery plans – Ensures a safer return-to-play decision based on data, not guesswork.
- Confidence for athletes, parents, and coaches – Provides reassurance that brain health is a priority.
Ideal for: Athletes of all levels, sports teams and organizations aiming to prioritise player safety.
