Are you at risk of a concussion through your sport?
Our clinic is now an official Complete Concussion Management Clinic! With our collaboration and education through Complete Concussion Management we now offer the very best in research-proven concussion treatments.
Contact us about booking a baseline assessment before you are injured.
We offer a comprehensive battery of tests (not just the SCAT) to meaure every area of brain function that could become affected following a concussion. This is important in order to really know when an athlete has fully recovered and is safe to return to their sport.

A shin splint, which is medically referred to as tibial stress syndrome, is a painful injury to the shin that commonly affects runners, but also dancers and other athletes.
Shin pain most often occurs on the medial side of the shin (termed medial tibial stress syndrome, or MTSS) but can also occur on the lateral or anterior side of the lower leg. Shin splint pain develops due to the overexertion of pressure on muscles in the lower legs causing stress on the tissues in that region.

Hamstrings are the group of muscles located in the back of the thigh. Muscle injuries in this region are quite common, especially in active individuals such as athletes.
This type of injury is usually very painful, and if the muscle has a tear, it will leave you with a lot of bruising.
These injuries often heal very well, however, in order to be able to regain full function of the hamstrings and correct any issues with your stride, appropriate rehabilitation is necessary.
