Concussion Management

10-15% of athletes from high-risk sports are estimated to experience a concussion each year. But, that’s just what we know. It’s estimated that over 50% of concussions aren’t reported to coaches, trainers, and medical professionals, which means most concussions go unnoticed, and therefore untreated.
There are large amount of evidence that state early management of concussion injuries may prevent ongoing issues and assist those who still have symptoms

BodyOptic’s Complete Concussion Management solution allows us to get ahead of unknown concussion issues, and better treat the concussions we do find. Using pre-season baseline testing to ascertain the normal (baseline) cognitive functions of players, we test post-head knock cognitive function against the ‘normal’ figures found during the baseline test.

Our testing solution results in more accurate back-to-play recommendations for player protection, and a lesser long-term impact for players who do experience a significant concussion. The Baseline testing program takes 20 minutes per participant and can be delivered either in person or online via telehealth, for a small per-player fee which may also be eligible for a health fund rebate.

Investing in baseline testing in pre-season represents an investment in players’ health and safety and the future of sport in Australia.

For those who don’t play sport but have sustained a concussion and still have ongoing symptoms we have skills and tools to assess and treat these issues and get you back to normal function again.
