Baseline Neuropsychology
|
It is becoming increasingly common for healthy people to seek a baseline of their current cognitive abilities. This can be for a number of reasons.
Many people as they age wish to understand their current brain health, and to find ways to maximise their abilities long term. By understanding their cognition and what influences brain health, people can take steps to reduce their risk of developing dementia and/or suffering a stroke. Many sports-persons wish to obtain a baseline profile in order for them to have a comparison in managing any future concussion risks. By having your own unique cognitive profile, future assessments looking at the impact of a concussion (or multiple concussions) can allow a far greater accuracy for comparison purposes, enabling the sports-person to better manage their return to play. |
