Concussions: myths, facts, and recovery guidelines | Webinar

Have you or someone close to you experienced a concussion recently? If you’re feeling confused because of all the conflicting information online, you’re not the only one!
Over half a million Canadians sustain one or more concussions each year, the majority of which result from falls and motor vehicle accidents (not sport). Resulting from a direct hit to the head or jolting of any part of the body that causes the head to move back and forth rapidly, a concussion can greatly affect a person’s ability to engage in everyday activities, including school, work and home.
Join us for a free online discussion with two of our knowledgeable and experienced registered physiotherapists Janine Ankenmann and Cregg Webber. They will discuss how to identify concussions, myths around management, and steps to return to learning, home or work activities.
You will learn:
- How to identify whether a concussion may have taken place and when to seek care
- Myths and misconceptions about concussion management and what current evidence says
- The importance of early intervention and guidelines to safely return to activity
