At the conclusion of treatment, Her clinical features had improved, and she was able to safely return to sport and school.

Conclusion: In this case, a sport-related concussion was initially unrecognized until seen by a chiropractor. This case report outlines the clinical management and outcomes of a young girl with sport-related concussion.
