Recovering from a Concussion Takes More Than Just Rest

After a concussion, many people are told to “just take it easy.” While rest is important in the early stages, true recovery often requires a structured rehabilitation plan—especially if symptoms linger beyond a few days.

At Keystone Medical Group in Kansas City, we specialize in concussion rehab that addresses not just the injury itself but the wide range of symptoms that come with it.

What Is Concussion Rehabilitation?Concussion rehabilitation is a targeted recovery program designed to help your brain heal safely and fully. Every brain injury is different, so no two recovery plans are exactly the same.

We assess each patient individually and offer therapies that may include:

  • Vestibular therapy to treat dizziness and balance issues

  • Vision therapy for blurred or double vision

  • Cognitive rehab for memory, focus, and processing speed

  • Neurology consultations for headache and sensory symptoms

  • Physical therapy if the concussion was accompanied by neck or spinal injuries

Common Post-Concussion Symptoms

Patients often report a wide range of issues after a concussion. These can include:

  • Headaches

  • Dizziness or loss of balance

  • Brain fog or slowed thinking

  • Light and noise sensitivity

  • Mood swings or irritability

  • Sleep problems

  • Difficulty concentrating or remembering things

If symptoms last longer than a week, it’s time to consider a more structured approach to recovery.

Our Tools for Concussion Diagnosis and Monitoring

Keystone Medical Group uses advanced diagnostic technology to get a full picture of your brain function, including:

  • QEEG (Quantitative EEG) to identify abnormal brain wave activity

  • DTI (Diffusion Tensor Imaging) for detecting subtle brain injuries

  • Neurologic assessments from specialists experienced in post-traumatic care

These tools help us design a precise and effective treatment plan tailored to your needs.

The Risks of Ignoring Concussion Symptoms

Untreated or poorly managed concussions can lead to post-concussion syndrome, a condition that may last for months or even years. It can affect your ability to work, drive, or manage daily responsibilities.

Some long-term risks include:

  • Chronic headaches

  • Sleep disturbances

  • Memory loss

  • Anxiety or depression

  • Decreased quality of life

Early intervention is key to preventing these complications.
