Aerobic therapy (AT) may lessen the symptoms experienced by children and adolescents suffering from post-concussion syndrome and allow them to return to baseline, report researchers in a paper presented at the American Academy of Pediatrics National Conference and Exhibition in October 2015 in Washington, D.C. [1]

Researchers, led by William R. Johnson of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, reviewed the charts of 57 pediatric patients with post-concussion syndrome presenting to a specialty sports medicine concussion program at a large children's hospital from 2011-2013 who were referred to physical therapy (PT) for post-concussion symptoms.
