Impact collisions typically involve survival responses. If the body falls, or strikes something at velocity, as is the case during a skiing accident, car crash, bicycle accident, etc., there is both an arousal component to this, as well as vestibular (balance) and proprioceptive impacts. This video explains these three components of impact collisions.

You are watching a framework for understanding impact collisions autonomically. We treat the autonomic, proprioceptive, and balance (vestibular system) impacts from collisions in our autonomics clinic, and can also refer you to specialized autonomically-informed practitioners in our global network.
