Concussion Baseline Testing

As we gear up for the season, I want to pass along an offer from one of our community partners, Ascent Health & Sport Therapy.

Ascent is a sport therapy and performance clinic in Calgary with deep experience in youth injury and concussion management. They are offering pre-season concussion baseline testing to all Grizzlies, Race, and Freeride athletes at a special club rate of $59 per athlete.

A baseline test records your athlete’s basic cognitive function, balance, vision, and reaction time while they are healthy. If they experience an injury this season, clinicians will have a clear comparison point to ensure a safer return-to-snow process.

This has proved to be extremely beneficial over the past few seasons in the event your athlete suffers a concussion. The data that you receive is useful for practitioners all over during your recovery, especially if you happen to live in a different town. Please take advantage of this opportunity and best practice.

Booking Instructions:

  1. Book Online: BASELINE BOOKING

  2. Pick Location > Concussion Management > LLSC link - Locations: Capitol Hill (1904 20 Ave NW) or Currie (4530 Quesnay Wood Dr SW)

  3. Club Discount: Mention you are with Lake Louise Ski Club to receive the $59 rate

Coverage:
Testing is conducted by a chiropractor or physiotherapist with concussion management training and experience. Ascent will direct-bill your extended health benefits under Chiropractic or Physiotherapy, so most families will pay little to nothing out of pocket, depending on their plan.

Please see the poster below for more details. If you have any questions, you can contact Ascent directly at info@ascent.health.
