Prime Physical Therapy, located in Gainesville's Virginia Gateway
shopping center, provides patients with the latest in therapeutic methods.
Led by Dr. Kayla Roth, PT, DPT, Cert DN, CKTP, and a certified Vestibular
Concussion Specialist (VCS), the clinic specializes in musculoskeletal
and neurological care, including concussions and vestibular disorders
like vertigo. High-risk fall sports, including football, soccer, hockey, and
wrestling, see a notable incidence of concussions.
Dr. Roth explains that
concussions are complex
injuries impacting
multiple body systems--
neurological, vestibular,
oculomotor (visual), and
musculoskeletal systems.
With cases on the rise, she
emphasizes the importance
of a quick diagnosis and
referral to physical therapy
(PT), noting that early
intervention is essential
for maximizing recovery
potential. Specialized
treatment can greatly
enhance outcomes
for those affected by
concussions.
Prime Physical Therapy:
Comprehensive Care for Concussion Recovery
During evaluations, Dr. Roth conducts a range of tests to pinpoint each
patient's specific impairments and limitations. From there, she designs
individualized treatment plans focused on restoring function and improving
quality of life.
While concussions can significantly affect physical, cognitive, and
emotional well-being, PT offers crucial support beyond initial rest.
Therapists create personalized treatment plans to target symptoms
like headaches, dizziness, and balance issues. Techniques such as
vestibular rehabilitation help rebuild stability and confidence, and studies
show structured PT can speed recovery, reduce symptom aggravation,
and promote a quicker return to daily life.
Physical therapists also guide patients in safely resuming activities, help
prevent reinjury, and promote long-term wellness. Working with other
healthcare professionals, they often incorporate cognitive exercises to
enhance mental function and emotional stability.
Ultimately, post-concussion PT aims to restore quality
of life by addressing the full spectrum of symptoms.
Through this personalized approach, individuals
can regain their routines with resilience. Consulting
a physical therapist like Dr. Roth can be a valuable
step toward a stronger, healthier recovery
journey from concussions. For more information,
