When you visit a functional neurologist, you'll be asked about your concerns, past health, lifestyle, job, and family. A thorough neurologic exam is performed to determine:
Treatments. Nerve cells need fuel and stimulation to thrive, so treatment uses activities that have been shown by scientific research to activate nerve cells: (1) specific adjustments to joints, (2) eye exercises, (3) breathing exercises, (4) light, sound, smell, touch, (5) balance activities, (6) nutritional modification, (7) physical exercises, and (8) cognitive exercises. Our care is safe, closely monitored and often fun.
A key element of success (especially for those who have failed with other types of care) is that rehabilitation is not programmed. It is based specifically on the findings of the patient’s exam and response to therapeutic trial. Therapies are constantly evaluated with pre and post testing as the patient progresses.
