Campbell, California

Bay Area athletes wait 4–6 months for neurological care — and are often seen by pain specialists instead of Neurologists.

Post-Concussive Care and Post-Traumatic Headache are neurological conditions that deserve a specialized Neurologist.

Dr. Walia is subspecialized in Headache and Concussion.

A normal scan doesn’t mean a normal brain.

Post-Concussive Syndrome

Five Signs. One Cause.

After a head injury, these symptoms are rarely separate problems.

  1. I

    Cognitive

    Memory lapses, poor focus, brain fog, slower thinking

  2. II

    Pain

    Headaches, neck pain, sharp stabbing pain, tingling and burning, light and noise sensitivity

  3. III

    Vestibular

    Dizziness, unsteadiness, motion sensitivity, visual strain

  4. IV

    Sleep

    Trouble falling or staying asleep, waking unrefreshed, fatigue

  5. V

    Mood

    Irritability, anxiety, low mood, not feeling like yourself

One CausePost-Concussive Syndrome

Others may doubt you. We don’t.
We know why you feel the way you do.

Most players are sent to a different specialist for each symptom. We evaluate them together, confirm the diagnosis, and treat the cause.

The Neurocave™ Suite

The Neurocave™

A private, physician-designed suite where an overloaded nervous system finally gets to rest.

The world goes quiet. The body lets go. The mind follows.

Experienced, not explained. Ask Dr. Walia.

The Cortex & Calm Standard

We Treat the Etiology — Not One Symptom at a Time.

01

Evidence-Based

Every plan starts with objective data: DTI and fMRI imaging, cognitive and neuropsychological testing, VNG and balance metrics. We measure, treat, and measure again.

02

Built for Athletes

Designed around the brains and bodies of players who took real hits. Concussion history, neck and spine, sleep, mood, and performance, addressed together.

03

The NeuroSpa Experience

The Neurocave™, a sensory-reducing suite for nervous system recovery, plus full-body, transcranial and transnasal red light therapy in a calm, discreet setting. Recovery should feel like recovery.

Most concussion patients have been told their imaging looks normal. We use MRI with DTI/TBI protocol and fMRI to see what a standard MRI misses — the fiber tracts and functional networks where impact damage actually occurs. Every client with a history of TBI gets a complete workup from day one: cognitive and neuropsychological testing, VNG, balance board assessment, spine and muscle evaluation, and advanced neuroimaging. Not a referral. Not a return visit. A full picture.

Measure. Then Treat.
