Summary
This study tests whether a special neck-strengthening device, called TopSpin360, can help adolescents and young adults recover faster from a concussion that causes neck pain and headaches. Participants use the device to strengthen their neck muscles in multiple directions. The goal is to see if this approach reduces symptoms, improves daily function, and helps them return to school and sports more quickly.
