About the event

Targeted Management of Concussion highlights the sensorimotor systems of the vestibular, oculomotor and cervical spine and how to assess and manage dysfunction in these systems post-injury. We will also cover autonomic and exercise tolerance testing, and discuss the latest updates from the Amsterdam consensus statement.

Concussion can be complex, and at times overwhelming. Learn some simple strategies to start to decipher which systems are driving your patients' symptoms, and how you can tailor your approach to each individual case.

With a practical, hands-on focus, these workshops are designed to leave you feeling more confident with some useful key skills.

Hosted by Willis St Physiotherapy.

Places are limited and a minimum of two teaching staff will ensure plenty of feedback.

Cost: $295 incl GST (course fee, workbook and assessment resources, morning and afternoon tea, lunch, hot drinks)
