Webinar: Recognising Concussion: What Every Natural Medicine Practitioner Needs to Know on Tuesday 9th November 2027 - 7:00pm - 8:30pm AEDT

Where: Online

CPE: 1.5 CPE points

While many practitioners are not initially responsible for diagnosing concussion, they are often among the first health professionals to see clients following a head injury or with persistent symptoms. Understanding when to suspect concussion, recognising red flags, knowing when to refer, and appreciating the importance of early management are all highly relevant to our members.

This webinar will focus on topics such as:

Recognising concussion and differentiating it from more serious head injuries.
Current best practice in the assessment and diagnosis of concussion.
Red flags and when immediate medical referral is required.
Recovery timelines and common post-concussion presentations.
Return to work, sport, and daily activity guidelines.
The role of allied and complementary health practitioners within a multidisciplinary concussion management team.

The aim is to provide manual therapists, naturopaths, acupuncturists, and other ATMS practitioners information as to what they should (and should not) do when working with clients who have sustained a concussion.
