Functional neurology is the practice of using chiropractic and functional neurological principles to analyze the various levels of the interference within the nervous system. Functional neurologists apply these principles and that of neuroplasticity to improve the efficiency of the nervous system and optimize cognitive function. Patients may come to Vital Life Health Center seeking neuro rehabilitation for serious conditions, such as concussion/TBI, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, stroke rehabilitation, and more. Others may seek care for conditions such as balance and vertigo issues, stress management or whiplash. Athletes and executives can also benefit from functional neurology care, pursuing high-performance goals to succeed in the game and in the boardroom. Families are encouraged to bring children of any age to be checked by the functional neurologists at Vital Life. Proper evaluation of a developmental delay is critical, as these conditions begin during the developmental period, may impact day-to-day functioning and usually last throughout a person’s lifetime.

 

The clinical team pinpoints neurological dysfunction and, using the latest physical and neurological methods and procedures, creates care plans for cognitive rehabilitation, with the goals of maximizing function and greatly improving the quality of life.
