The Importance of Eye Movements in Functional Neurology: A Closer Look
Last month, we focused on a fascinating aspect of brain function and health—eye movements. Eye movements can reveal so much about how the brain is working, and at our functional neurology clinic, they are a key part of our diagnostic and therapeutic approach. Understanding these movements and what they tell us can help uncover neurological […]
Unleashing Your Brain’s Potential: A Functional Neurologist’s Perspective on Brain Training
In our ever-evolving understanding of brain health, one thing is clear: the brain is not a static organ but a dynamic, adaptable system capable of remarkable change. This adaptability, known as neuroplasticity, is at the heart of brain training. As functional neurologists, we harness this power to improve cognitive function, coordination, and overall brain health. […]
Peripheral Neuropathy: A Functional Neurologist’s Approach to Laser Therapy
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition characterized by damage to the peripheral nerves, which transmit signals between the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) and the rest of the body. This damage can lead to symptoms such as numbness, tingling, burning pain, and muscle weakness. As a functional neurologist, my approach to treating peripheral […]
Unleash Your Body’s Natural Healing With Non-Invasive Vagal Stimulation
In the pursuit of wellness, we often overlook the profound connection between our mind and body. The vagus nerve, which is an intricate part of your autonomic nervous system, plays a pivotal role in maintaining balance and promoting health. The practice of vagal stimulation has gained traction in recent years, focusing on activating this powerful […]
Top 5 Ways to Prevent Neurodegenerative Diseases, Like Dementia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
Even though neurodegeneration (the slow breakdown of your brain) is a natural process of aging, people generally want to avoid or prolong it as long as possible. The most common neurodegenerative diseases that aging people experience are dementia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. According to the National Library of Medicine, approximately two out of three Americans experience […]
