Chiropractic Care & Concussion Recovery in Ottawa: Supporting Your Comeback

Concussions aren’t just a “bump on the head”—they can affect everything from your focus to your balance, mood, and performance. Whether you’re an athlete, a weekend warrior, or just recovering from life’s curveballs, you don’t have to navigate recovery alone. Here’s how chiropractic care at Nobility Performance can support your journey back—no hype, just real-world help.

What Happens After a Concussion?

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a blow, jolt, or impact to the head or body. Symptoms can include:

• Headaches or pressure in the head
• Dizziness or balance issues
• Trouble concentrating or remembering
• Sensitivity to light or noise
• Fatigue, irritability, or mood changes
• Neck pain or stiffness

Sometimes symptoms are immediate; sometimes they show up days later. Everyone’s recovery is different.

How Can Chiropractic Care Help?

Chiropractic care can play a supportive role in concussion recovery by:

• Movement Assessment: Identifying neck, back, or movement issues that may contribute to symptoms.
• Gentle Manual Therapy: Addressing neck and spine mobility to help reduce headaches, dizziness, or muscle tension.
• Exercise Guidance: Prescribing safe, gradual movement or vestibular exercises to aid recovery (when appropriate).
• Collaborative Care: Working alongside other healthcare providers as needed—your recovery always comes first.

Note: We don’t treat the brain injury itself, but we can address many of the musculoskeletal symptoms and help guide your return to activity.
