Concussion Rehabilitation:
A Comprehensive Approach
£295

To help rehabilitation professionals move beyond passive recovery models and toward active, evidence-based care.
The course is designed to be practical, accessible, and immediately applicable in clinical settings. It equips clinicians with the tools and confidence to assess VOM dysfunction, initiate targeted rehabilitation, and support athletes through every stage of recovery.
My goal is to empower practitioners with the knowledge and strategies they need to manage concussion more effectively—and to raise the standard of care for athletes navigating this complex injury.
