What is post-concussion dizziness?
After a concussion, some people have dizziness, unsteadiness, and sensitivity to movement that lingers beyond the first days. Acute concussion red flags must be assessed and cleared by a doctor before vestibular loading begins. Physiotherapy then uses vestibular and balance rehabilitation, along with a carefully graded return to activity, to settle these symptoms safely.

When to seek urgent care
Physiotherapy is safe for most people, but see a doctor urgently if you have any of these:
- After a head injury: worsening headache, repeated vomiting, or drowsiness
- Confusion, seizures, or weakness
- For these, treat it as an emergency
Do not book physiotherapy for emergency symptoms. Seek urgent medical care first, then use physiotherapy when it is safe and appropriate.
