Head injuries are a part of contact sport, and managing your recovery is vital.

Diagnosing a concussion properly is something only a doctor can do; at Ballarat Sports Medicine we have Western Victoria’s only specialist Sport and Exercise Medicine Doctors with years of experience in team sports.

We can diagnose if you have had a concussion, and then work with our team of physios and exercise physiologists to plan your recovery.

Some of your concussion issues may be fixed by seeing our physiotherapists for treatment to your neck, or for balance or dizziness.

Once you’re feeling good, we can help you return to training in a safe and controlled manner, and clear you for a return to play.

We can also help you with sports insurance forms, and all medical consultations receive a refund from Medicare.

Getting your concussion managed properly from the start can save you from weeks of recovery, or maybe we can advise you on the safety of playing on.
