Occupational Therapy isn’t just about your job! “Occupation” refers to the everyday activities that give your life purpose—from getting ready in the morning and caring for your family to working, studying, and enjoying your hobbies.

After a concussion, these activities can feel harder. Natasha Rebello, our Occupational Therapist at Guelph, helps you find practical ways to manage those challenges, including:

- Strategies for attention, memory, planning, and organization
- Pacing activities and managing cognitive fatigue
- Building routines that support sleep and daily functioning
- Coping with stress and the emotional impact of recovery
- Planning a gradual return to work, school, and meaningful activities

At Shift Concussion Management, OT works alongside our physical rehabilitation team. While physical rehabilitation addresses concerns such as neck pain, dizziness, visual symptoms, and exercise tolerance, OT helps you apply strategies to the demands of everyday life.

Together, we build a rehabilitation plan that supports both your symptoms and the things that matter to you.

Curious about how OT could support your recovery? Contact our clinic to learn more.

Today, our team is wearing purple buttons in recognition of Rowan’s Law Day. 💜

Rowan’s Law was named in memory of Rowan Stringer, a 17 year old rugby player who’s story led to important changes in concussion awareness and safety across Ontario.

As concussion healthcare providers, we see the importance of these messages every day:

🧠Recognize the signs and symptoms
🛑Remove the athlete from play
đŸ—ŁïžEncourage honest symptom reporting
đŸ©șSeek appropriate assessment
✅Support a safe, gradual return to school and sport

Athletes should never feel pressure to hide symptoms or “play through” a suspected concussion. Creating safer culture takes all of us - athletes, families, coaches, educators, officials and healthcare professionals.

Today, we honour Rowan’s memory and continue the conversation about concussion safety.

🏒 Mouthguards do more than protect teeth.

The latest international Consensus Statement on Concussion in Sport reported that mouthguard use was associated with a 28% lower concussion rate in ice hockey across all age groups. Based on this evidence, the expert panel recommended that mouthguards be mandated in child and adolescent hockey and supported at all levels of play.

A mouthguard should:

- Fit snugly and stay securely in place
- Allow the athlete to breathe and speak comfortably
- Be worn consistently during practices and games
- Be replaced if it becomes damaged, worn or no longer fits properly

Mouthguards cannot prevent every concussion—and wearing one should never change how a possible concussion is handled. If a concussion is suspected, the player should still be removed from play and appropriately assessed.

But as one part of a broader concussion-prevention strategy, a properly fitted mouthguard is a small piece of equipment that may offer meaningful protection.

Fall is almost here—and we’re excited to get back to live courses!

There’s something uniquely valuable about learning together in person: practising hands-on clinical skills, working through complex cases, asking questions and connecting with other healthcare professionals who share an interest in concussion care.

We have three upcoming opportunities to join us in Guelph and Dorval. Whether you’re building your concussion-management skills or looking to bring greater structure and confidence to your clinical approach, we’d love to have you there.

Patient care is rarely just the appointment. 😅

Behind the scenes, there are charts to complete, reports to write, exercises to prescribe, insurers and other providers to contact - and, somewhere in the middle of it all, coffee to make ☕.

It can feel a little like running in circles, but every task is part of keeping care organized, individualized and moving forward.

The work you don’t always see is still part of your care. 💙

Coming soon: an eight-part limited series about one clinician, one question, and our favourite rating scale 😅.

In all seriousness, we know repeated symptom check-ins can feel like a lot - especially when you’re already dealing with a post-concussion headache. We ask because those changes help us understand your response to activity and guide your treatment appropriately.

To every patient who has patiently answered, “What number is it now?” - thank you! 🙏
