Post-Concussion Syndrome

If your concussion was weeks or even months ago, but you’re still feeling “off,” you’re not alone. Up to 30% of individuals experience lingering symptoms known as post-concussion syndrome (PCS). These may include dizziness, headaches, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, light or sound sensitivity, and imbalance. PCS can affect every part of your day—and while it can feel frustrating, it is treatable.


At Sparq Physical Therapy in Castle Rock, CO, we specialize in neuro-focused concussion rehab to help you recover safely and fully. Our one-on-one sessions address the complex interaction between your brain, vestibular system, eyes, and body, so you can feel steady, sharp, and like yourself again.

Affected Area

Post-concussion syndrome often affects multiple systems, including the brain, vestibular system, ocular-motor system, cervical spine, and nervous system regulation. Secondary symptoms may show up in the neck, shoulders, and core, especially if balance and posture are affected.

Symptoms

PCS symptoms can include:

  • Dizziness or vertigo

  • Headaches

  • Brain fog or slowed thinking

  • Visual disturbances (blurry vision, difficulty tracking)

  • Light or sound sensitivity

  • Neck pain or stiffness

  • Imbalance or unsteadiness

  • Difficulty concentrating or multitasking

  • Fatigue or feeling overwhelmed in busy environments

These symptoms can fluctuate and may worsen with physical or cognitive activity.

Treatments

Neuro physical therapy is one of the most effective ways to address PCS holistically. At Sparq PT, we design an individualized rehab plan based on your unique symptom profile and recovery stage. Your treatment may include:

  • Vestibular rehabilitation to reduce dizziness and motion sensitivity

  • Oculomotor exercises to retrain eye tracking, convergence, and visual focus

  • Balance and proprioception training to improve stability and reduce fall risk

  • Manual therapy for the neck if cervical involvement contributes to symptoms

  • Pacing and graded return-to-activity guidance to support cognitive recovery

  • Nervous system regulation using breathwork, mindfulness, and movement strategies

You don’t have to push through or wait it out. With the right support, post-concussion symptoms can improve, and so can your quality of life.
