Functional Neurology: A Personalized Approach to Brain Health and Physical Performance
We are experts in chronic and difficult cases
Functional Neurology (aka Chiropractic Neurology) is an evidence-based approach that evaluates the function of the brain and nervous system to provide personalized neuro-rehabilitation through targeted, non-invasive therapies. This innovative field focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of neurological dysfunction rather than merely managing symptoms, offering hope and improved outcomes for patients with neurological and complex conditions.
What is Functional Neurology?
Functional Neurology combines advanced diagnostic tools with a deep understanding of neuroplasticity—the brain's ability to adapt and learn. By conducting comprehensive health histories, neurological examinations, and specialized diagnostic testing, practitioners can pinpoint areas of dysfunction within the nervous system.
These tests may include the following:
Neurocognitive Assessments
EEG and Quantitative EEG
Computerized Posturography
Gait analysis
Videonystagmography
Saccadometry
Autonomic Testing
Laboratory Testing
These technologies objectively measure cognitive function, brainwave activity, sensory-motor processing, balance, visual tracking, reaction times, and more.
This data allows functional neurologists to create highly customized treatment plans designed to improve brain function with measurable results.
The therapies used are tailored to each individual’s unique needs, making Functional Neurology a truly personalized approach.
How does Functional Neurology personalize care?
Functional Neurology integrates a variety of therapies aimed at promoting neuroplasticity and restoring optimal function. These include:
-Neuromodulation: is a non-invasive and gentle form of stimulation with the use of light, electrical currents or magnets. These are programmed to pulse at specific frequencies to help entrain, heal and promote neuroplasticity in the brain and body.
- Neurofeedback: uses real-time feedback using EEG to train the brainwaves for better regulation to improve mood, sleep, sensorimotor processing and cognitive functions.
- Vision Therapy: exercises to improve visual tracking, hand-eye coordination, and dynamic visual acuity.
- Vestibular Rehabilitation: techniques to address balance disorders, dizziness and vestibular dysfunction.
- Manual Therapy: targeted physical manipulations to decrease muscle tension, increase range of motion and improve neuromuscular coordination of the body.
- Sensory-Motor Integration: activities designed to improve sensory integration and movement awareness.
- Cognitive Exercises: strategies to improve visual processing, memory, problem solving and executive functioning.
By combining these therapies into a multimodal approach, Functional Neurology addresses the underlying neurological imbalances that contribute to physical, emotional, and cognitive symptoms.
Who Can Benefit from Functional Neurology?
Functional Neurology benefit a wide range of conditions, including:
Brain Injuries
Vertigo and Dizziness
Migraines
Balance Disorders
Movement Disorders
Developmental Disorders
Cognitive Impairment
Anxiety and Depression
Long COVID Syndrome
Whether recovering from an injury or managing a chronic condition, patients benefit from treatments that target the specific neural pathways contributing to their symptoms.
