Concussion Program In Council Bluffs
An estimated 3 million people, both young and old, will suffer a concussion from either sport participation or physical activity per year in the United States of America. 80% of those people will recover within 3 weeks. However, that means 20% will be left with residual symptoms like headaches, sensitivity to light, or forgetfulness. These are things that physical therapy can help with!
The Concussion Program at Flex Physical Therapy is designed for athletes who have suffered a concussion. This program will help to identify the type of concussion that the patient is experiencing and then effectively design a rehabilitation program specifically for that patient. Each concussion is different and changes based on the individual.
The program includes:
- A comprehensive evaluation by a physical therapist trained in treating concussions.
- A plan to address the specific needs of the patient based on the evaluation and classification of the concussion symptoms.
- Treatment may include balance, vestibular/eye movement exercises, and neck range of motion/strengthening.
- Guidance to help the patient safely return to their normal activities and symptoms improve.
The goal of The Concussion Program at Flex Physical Therapy is to help the patient make a full return to their normal activities.

“This was my first time at Flex Physical Therapy. My first visit was super thorough. They went through everything that caused me pain and discomfort. Brennen, the physical therapist I saw was very detailed. He challenged all movements to make sure he was confident in the treatment he was going to suggest for me, would work for me and my problem. Him and his team continue to work with me, adding to my program as my recovery progresses and changes to get me back to 100%. I would highly suggest this team in Council Bluffs! Everyone in this office, from the moment you walk in the door, treats you like you matter. That’s what makes a great business!”

“Mandy has been my massage therapist for the last 6 years. It was the best birthday present I ever gave myself. Mandy approaches the body with an extremely intuitive practice, while also being well versed in physical therapy in general. She has solved and continues to maintain my lower back and hips. I truly believe I’m a healthier person overall since I started seeing her on a monthly basis. Worth the investment in yourself!”
