About this trial

The purpose of this pilot study is to:

1. Determine the feasibility of adherence to completing the home cervico-vestibular exercise program following concussion. 2. Investigate the acceptability of the cervico-vestibular home exercise program. 3. Investigate the impact of the cervico-vestibular home exercise program on symptom reduction, return to play, and return to learn 4. Analyze the timing at which a home exercise program is typically prescribed.

Participants will be asked to do and keep track of exercises made to help in their concussion recovery over a two-week period. Participants will come back to see their doctor and complete surveys about how easy the exercises were to do and if they liked them.
