Comprehensive Concussion Support for All Ages
At Avec Therapy Services, we provide thorough concussion assessments to evaluate cognitive, speech, and sensory-motor functions following a head injury. Our assessments often include baseline testing, which measures memory, attention, processing speed, and executive functioning. This information helps us track recovery, identify areas of concern, and develop a personalized therapy plan. Baseline testing is also a valuable tool for athletes and students, helping guide safe return-to-play or return-to-learn decisions.

but wait… What Is Baseline Concussion Testing?
Baseline concussion testing is like a “snapshot” of your brain’s current functioning before or soon after a head injury. It measures skills such as memory, attention, processing speed, reaction time, and problem-solving. By knowing how your brain typically performs, clinicians can compare these results if a concussion occurs, helping to identify changes and guide recovery. Baseline testing is especially useful for athletes, students, or anyone at higher risk for head injuries, as it provides objective information to make safe return-to-play, return-to-learn, and treatment decisions.
Treatment at Avec Therapy is tailored to each client’s unique needs and may include cognitive-communication therapy, memory and attention exercises, speech and language support, and strategies for managing fatigue and sensory sensitivities. Our goal is to help clients regain their independence, confidence, and daily functioning while promoting long-term brain health. We take a collaborative approach, working closely with families, schools, and medical providers to ensure a comprehensive recovery plan.
