Pediatric Concussion Presentation
Thank you to the amazing gymnastics coaches at Rockwall Gymnastics Academy for having me! It truly takes a team to take care of our athletes, and you all are such an important part of that team.
Coaches are on the front lines, and being able to recognize red flags and symptoms of concussion is critical in ensuring the safety and well-being of young athletes.
Remember - addressing and treating pediatric concussions is crucial, and yes, physical therapy does play a key role in treatment, with research showing improved symptoms and a quicker return to sport.
Huge shout out to the RGA Team for proactively seeking out continuing education to be the best possible coaches they can for their athletes.
Environments that foster proactive teamwork between disciplines will ALWAYS produce more success for their athletes.
