Hour 1

• Discuss the etiology, pathophysiology, and symptoms of trauma and post-auto whiplash.
• Translate how low-level laser impacts inflammation and trauma.
• Explain modern neuron theory and how low-level laser can optimize cellular communication within the PNS/CNS.
• Conceptualize how to change the brain and body by using low-level laser and sensory inputs to modify central circuitry.

Hour 2

• Discuss the interplay between the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
• Explain how changes in autonomic function affect the brain and body following trauma.
• Share relevant research about the gut/brain connection.
• Give an overview of the neuroinflammatory cascade of trauma and how low-level laser impacts inflammatory processes.

Hour 3

• Discuss the anatomy/physiology of the cerebellum and it’s integration with the cervical spine.
• Outline how changes in cerebellar function and the cervical spine affect the brain and body following trauma
• Explain how low-level laser therapy can optimize structural, neurological, and metabolic parameters following trauma.
• Create a greater understanding for providers to know how to utilize their skillset to treat complex cases.

Hour 4

• Discuss the anatomy and physiology of the visual and vestibular systems.
• Identify how changes in the visual and vestibular system affect the brain and body following trauma.
• Share mechanisms and treatment applications for utilizing low-level laser therapy.
• Create awareness around the modern utilization of structural, neurological, and metabolic treatment paradigms for complex cases.
