Are you overlooking the most important part of your concussion assessments?

If you're a clinician working with concussion patients and you're not fully evaluating the neck—you’re missing a critical piece of the puzzle.

The truth is, many providers stop short when assessing cervical involvement. You might check range of motion, maybe even do some manual therapy—but what about sensory motor control? Joint position sense? Proprioception? These deeper layers of neck function not only impact symptoms like dizziness and disorientation… they can even increase risk for future concussions.

But here’s the good news: there is a better way to assess and treat the neck—and it's going to radically elevate the way you support your clients with complex concussion.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why range of motion and palpation alone are NOT enough to rule out cervical involvement

• How joint position sense and sensory motor control can impact symptoms like dizziness and eye movement dysfunction

• Simple clinical tests to help determine whether the neck is driving your client’s ongoing symptoms

• How new research is shaping baseline testing and return-to-play decisions for athletes

Whether you're a PT, chiropractor, or clinician supporting clients post-concussion, this episode is packed with tools and insights that will help you go deeper in your assessments and get your clients better, faster.
