🌿 Chiropractic care is often misunderstood and those myths can prevent people from getting the help they need. The latest newsletter from Leaps & Bounds Performance Rehab breaks down what chiropractic care can. It can’t do, helping you separate fact from fiction when it comes to managing pain, improving movement, and supporting overall function.
As part of a well-rounded treatment approach, chiropractic care works alongside physiotherapy and other therapies to address joint, muscle, and nerve-related issues, especially those involving the spine so you can move better and feel stronger.

👶 Plus, a special announcement: Join us in celebrating Christina on the arrival of her beautiful baby girl, such an exciting moment for the Leaps & Bounds family!

📣 What are the clinical signs of a concussion?

In Part 1, we reviewed the ACRM diagnostic criteria for concussion.

Remember: a concussion diagnosis requires a mechanism of injury plus at least one indicator of brain dysfunction — and clinical signs are one of those key indicators.

Clinical signs are observable findings — things that can be seen or measured immediately after the injury.

These may include:

👁️ Altered or loss of consciousness
This may present as confusion, disorientation, or unresponsiveness. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is used to objectively assess and quantify level of consciousness.

🧍 Instability & incoordination
Trouble standing, stumbling, balance loss, or poor coordination immediately after impact.

⚠️ Posturing or more severe neurological signs
Including tonic posturing or abnormal motor responses.

👉 Even a layperson can often recognize these signs.
If it’s obvious something is off — Loss of consciousness, stumbling, or rigod posturing — that athlete should be removed from play immediately.

These signs are important because they are objective indicators of brain dysfunction — they do not rely on symptom reporting.

However, not all concussions present with obvious signs. Many can be subtle or missed entirely, which is why other components of the diagnostic criteria are essential.

Stay tuned to check out our upcoming posts:
➡️ Part 3: Acute symptoms
➡️ Part 4: Clinical examination findings
➡️ Part 5: Laboratory and diagnostic findings

Concussion diagnosis is rarely based on one factor — it’s the full clinical picture.

The older we get, the more expensive our mistakes become.

One impatient jump in training volume.
One extra session before full recovery.
What once cost a few days at 25 can cost weeks — sometimes months — at 55.

But it’s not just about being “MORE FRAGILE.”

Research shows older adults often feel *less* soreness after training — but recover more slowly at a physiological level. The systems that repair and adapt don’t respond as efficiently.

So the real limiter isn’t how you feel; it’s how well you’ve actually recovered ➡️ We still adapt. It just takes more time.

And the benefits of training don’t happen during the workout — they happen during recovery.

That creates a common pattern:
Build fitness for months → push too hard → get injured → lose progress → rebuild slower than before.

An injury-free year of consistent, moderate training will outperform an aggressive year interrupted by rehab. Every time.

A more sustainable approach:
▶️ Hard efforts: 1x/week
▶️ Strength: 2–3x/week per muscle group
▶️ Aerobic work: mostly low intensity

The hard part isn’t physical — it’s mental. At 30, more feels like the answer. At 65, that mindset can break you.
➡️ Rest days aren’t lost days. They’re adaptation days.

High intensity still has value. But used too often, it leads to a cycle: push → injury → time off → lost fitness → repeat.
➡️ The irony? That cycle erodes the very capacity you’re trying to build.

A better approach is simpler:
▶️ More low-intensity volume.
▶️ Less frequent, more sustainable intensity.

Intensity isn’t the enemy.
Impatience is.

📣 How is a concussion actually diagnosed? 🧠

Many people assume concussion is diagnosed based on symptoms alone — but the reality is more structured than that.

In 2023, the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine (ACRM) published updated diagnostic criteria for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), commonly called concussion.

💥According to these criteria, a concussion diagnosis requires a mechanism of injury capable of affecting brain function (e.g., direct blow to the head, rapid acceleration/deceleration, or a force transmitted to the head) plus evidence of brain dysfunction through one or more of the following:

1️⃣ One or more clinical signs attributable to brain injury
These are observable indicators immediately following the injury (e.g., loss of consciousness, altered level of consciousness, loss of balance/coordination, posturing, or other observable neurological signs).

2️⃣ At least two acute symptoms that may be physical, cognitive, emotional, or sleep-related in nature.

3️⃣ At least one clinical finding on examination or testing
This may include abnormalities on neurological examination, cognitive testing, balance assessment, vestibular testing, or other clinical measures.

4️⃣ Neuroimaging evidence of traumatic brain injury
Such as trauma-related abnormalities identified on CT or structural MRI.

Importantly, these findings must not be better explained by other causes, such as drugs, alcohol, medications, psychological factors, or other medical conditions.

In this series, we’ll break down the specific components clinicians look for when diagnosing concussion:

➡️ Part 2: Clinical signs
➡️ Part 3: Acute symptoms
➡️ Part 4: Clinical examination findings
➡️ Part 5: Laboratory and diagnostic findings

Understanding these criteria helps explain why concussion diagnosis is more than just a symptom checklist.

The Paralympic Games celebrate the incredible achievements of athletes with disabilities from around the world.

A few quick facts:
➡️ The first Paralympic Games were held in 1960 in Rome with 400 athletes from 23 countries.
➡️ Today, thousands of athletes compete across 20+ sports, showcasing elite performance and determination.
➡️ The Games take place every two years, alternating between summer and winter versions, following the Olympic Games.
➡️ The name derives from the Greek preposition para ("beside" or "alongside"), signifying that the games are held parallel to the Olympics.

🇨🇦 Canada and the Paralympics
➡️ The Canadian Paralympic Committee (CPC) supports and prepares Canada’s Paralympic athletes and promotes inclusive sport across the country.
➡️ At the 2024 Summer Paralympics, Canada sent 125 athletes competing in 18 sports.
➡️ Team Canada finished with 29 medals (10 gold, 9 silver, 10 bronze) — one of our strongest performances in years.
➡️ Fifty athletes will be representing Team Canada at the 2026 Winter Games in Milano-Cortina.

🇨🇦 Canada’s 2026 Winter Paralympic Flag Bearers will be:
➡️ Tyler McGregor – Para Ice Hockey
➡️ Natalie Wilkie (pictured) – Para Nordic Skiing

The Paralympics remind us that sport has the power to inspire, break barriers, and redefine what’s possible.
