Personal Injury (Auto Accident Recovery)

At Synapse Brain & Spine Center, we specialize in helping individuals recover from auto accidents and personal injuries through comprehensive diagnostics, neurological rehabilitation, and physical recovery therapies. Whether you’re experiencing pain, concussion symptoms, or mobility challenges following a car accident, our integrative, evidence-based approach supports healing, function, and long-term wellness—without dependence on medication.

Understanding Auto Accident Injuries

Motor vehicle accidents can cause complex injuries to the brain, spine, joints, and soft tissues. Even low-speed collisions can result in significant physical and neurological damage. Common post-accident conditions include:

• Whiplash and neck pain
• Low back pain or sciatica
• Concussion or traumatic brain injury (TBI)
• Headaches, dizziness, and visual disturbances
• Joint pain (shoulder, hip, knee)
• Nerve pain, numbness, or tingling
• Cognitive issues: brain fog, memory loss, difficulty concentrating

Our goal is to identify hidden injuries, relieve pain, and restore full-body function through targeted diagnostics and personalized therapy.

Recommended Diagnostics for Personal Injury

We take a multidisciplinary diagnostic approach to assess all aspects of your injury, from brain function to musculoskeletal damage. This allows us to design a custom recovery plan tailored to your unique symptoms and goals.

1. Thorough Personal Injury Consultation

We review your accident details, injury timeline, symptoms, and medical history. We also assist with documentation for insurance and legal purposes.

2. Neurocognitive Assessment FDA Approved & meets Daubert Standard

We test:

• Memory, attention, and processing speed
• Executive function (planning, problem-solving)
• Impact of concussion or trauma on cognitive health

Why it matters:

Brain injuries can cause subtle but significant cognitive impairments. Testing helps track recovery and guide rehabilitation.

3. Vestibular Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS) FDA Approved & meets Daubert Standard

We assess:

• Balance and coordination
• Eye movement control, visual tracking, and convergence
• Motion sensitivity and dizziness

Why it matters:

Whiplash and concussion frequently impair the vestibular system and ocular motor control, leading to dizziness, balance issues, and visual disturbances. VOMS helps us design vestibular and visual retraining to restore stability, reduce dizziness, and improve spatial awareness.

5. Neurological / Orthopedic Examination

We examine:

• Muscle strength, flexibility, and joint function
• Reflexes, nerve sensitivity, and spinal alignment
• Pain patterns and movement restrictions

Why it matters:

Pinpointing joint, muscle, or nerve damage allows for precise treatment of whiplash, back pain, and extremity injuries.

6. Optional Metabolic and Inflammatory Lab Testing

May include:

• Inflammation markers
• Nutritional deficiencies affecting healing
• Hormonal or stress-related imbalances

Why it matters:

Optimizing internal health can accelerate healing and reduce chronic post-injury symptoms.

Recommended Treatment for Auto Accident Recovery

Our therapies are designed to reduce pain, restore function, and support brain-body healing. Each plan is customized for your injuries and recovery goals.

1. QEEG-Guided Neurofeedback Therapy

How it helps:

• Restores brain function after concussion or whiplash
• Reduces headaches, anxiety, and brain fog
• Improves sleep, mood, and cognitive performance

2. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

How it helps:

• Accelerates the healing of brain and soft tissue injuries
• Reduces inflammation and oxidative stress
• Improves oxygen delivery to damaged tissues
• Speeds recovery from post-concussion syndrome and chronic pain

3. Transcranial Photobiomodulation (tPBM / Brain Laser Therapy)

How it helps:

• Enhances brain cell energy (ATP production)
• Reduces brain inflammation and promotes neuroplasticity
• Improves mood, cognition, and post-concussion symptoms

4. Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)

How it helps:

• Reduces muscle tension and scar tissue
• Increases circulation to injured joints and soft tissues
• Relieves neck pain, low back pain, and joint pain after trauma

5. Extracorporeal Magneto transduction Therapy (EMTT)

How it helps:

• Stimulates deep tissue healing at the cellular level
• Reduces chronic pain and inflammation
• Enhances recovery of spine, joint, and soft tissue injuries

6. Class 4 Laser Therapy

How it helps:

• Accelerates the repair of soft tissue and nerve injuries
• Reduces inflammation and pain
• Effective for whiplash, back pain, and extremity injuries

7. Chiropractic Care and Neurological Rehabilitation

How it helps:

• Restores spinal alignment and nerve communication
• Improves posture, balance, and mobility
• Reduces pain, muscle tension, and joint restrictions

Legal and Insurance Support

We work with personal injury attorneys and assist with auto insurance and PIP claims to ensure you receive the care you need. Our documentation includes:

• Detailed injury reports
• Treatment plans and progress notes
• Diagnostic findings (QEEG, VOMS, cognitive testing)
