Episode 012 Paediatric Concussions, rehab and... prehab? with Natasha Wilch

In this episode of the Physiotutors podcast we talk to Natasha Wilch as a follow up to our previous podcast on concussions. We discuss paediatric physiotherapy, rehabilitation and her personal experience utilising concussion prehab exercises! Return to play (RTP) as well as returning to different levels of activity were hot topics during this talk! We discuss what happens when the body systems compensate, masking deeper problems as a result of the concussion and how important it is to identify this. In addition we talk about the necessity of an MDT approach for those with concussions and briefly touch on CTE and the dangers surrounding that. Tune in to find out more!
