All concussion rehabilitation experts are in agreement that the ideal approach to concussion rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary, multi-modal approach just like you use different types of teachers and different subjects when educating your children. We are continually upgrading our services as more research comes to light on improved methods of managing persistent concussion symptoms. If there are services you are looking for that are not available below, please ask one of our concussion health care providers when you consult them and they may be able to make recommendations of other providers in your area that offer that specific service.
Some of the services are very specialized, well-structured services like Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-i). Other services are quite broad and can use vastly different methods depending on the patient and the clinical context (e.g., Psychotherapy, Occupational therapy).
Some of the services are done by multiple disciplines (e.g., Relaxation training is done by occupational therapy and psychotherapy) while other services are done by only one discipline (e.g., Goal Management Training is done by occupational therapy).
To know whether Concussion Rehabilitation Services are covered by OHIP or not, please see our uninsured services policy. Often there are aspects of services that are covered by OHIP (e.g., MD evaluations and treatment advice for Headache Management) and there are parts that are not covered by OHIP (e.g., occupational therapy, relaxation training, psychotherapy, biofeedback, etc.).
