This pre-recorded webinar introduces manual therapists to practical, evidence-based strategies for supporting clients recovering from concussions. Presented by Connor Collins, an experienced therapist specializing in concussion care, the course offers essential tools to assess and manage symptoms within a therapist’s scope of practice.
The webinar begins with a clear explanation of what a concussion is, including mechanisms of injury, symptom classifications, and the phases of recovery. Connor highlights the three key priorities in concussion management: optimizing sleep, addressing mood disturbances, and managing post-concussive headaches—one of the most common physical symptoms.
Participants will gain insight into different types of headaches, including tension-type and cervicogenic headaches, and how manual therapy can effectively help alleviate them. Connor also discusses active recovery strategies, pacing techniques, and client education, emphasizing the importance of creating a calming treatment environment.
Designed for massage therapists and manual therapy practitioners, this webinar provides practical, actionable steps to enhance client care. Participants will leave with a better understanding of concussion recovery timelines, how to tailor treatment plans, and when to refer clients for additional care.
The pre-recorded format allows participants to learn at their own pace, ensuring flexibility while gaining valuable knowledge to confidently support post-concussion clients on their healing journey.
