At Body Flex Physio & Rehab Clinic, we provide comprehensive concussion rehabilitation in Mississauga designed to support recovery, reduce symptoms, and help patients safely return to their normal activities.

Our experienced physiotherapists create personalized rehabilitation programs based on your symptoms, injury severity, and recovery goals. We proudly serve patients throughout Mississauga, including Streetsville, Port Credit, Erin Mills, Meadowvale, Cooksville, Clarkson, Lakeview, and Hurontario.

Concussion

What Is a Concussion?

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that occurs when a blow, impact, or sudden movement causes the brain to move rapidly within the skull.

Concussions commonly occur during sports, motor vehicle accidents, falls, workplace injuries, and recreational activities. Although many people recover within a few weeks, some individuals experience prolonged symptoms that require professional rehabilitation.

Early assessment and treatment can help improve recovery outcomes and reduce the risk of long-term complications.
