Whiplash injury is not just a sprain/strain -- even with seemingly mild initial forces, a person can have many months of pain and dysregulation to perceptual, cognitive, and autonomic systems.
Is there a clue in this complexity? A way we can approach whiplash treatment that targets its core dynamics? Here's my first video in prep for next Saturday's launch of my online course for Whiplash Treatment. (Details: bit.ly/3yPXXVT)
The theme of this video is restoration ecology -- focusing your attention and effort on feedback loops, scaled experiments, and collaborating with the system in real-world context.
We need to understand how the initial injuries of whiplash give rise to self-perpetuating dysregulations to the immune and nervous systems. If we can arrest these feedback loops, we may have a chance at accelerating a person's recovery. (If we can't affect the feedback loops, our short-term fixes will dissolve and no progress will be made.)
Please me know what you think of this video! And stay tuned for the next one. I'm excited to prep for this class, and I hope some of my manual therapist friends can make it.
