Conditions Functional Neurology may help

"Certain conditions are more customarily seen by a chiropractic neurologist, as opposed to a medical neurologist, and vice versa. Specifically, our people see patients with a variety of movement disorders, dystonia, post stroke rehabilitation, and radiculopathy or nerve entrapment syndromes that are consequences of peripheral or central types of lesions".  - Dr. Carrick of Carrick Institute US. interview with NeuroPractice - a professional magazine for medical neurologists.

Ref: NeuroPractice, September 1998, 5(9).  Neurology: Heart of the profession - Journal of the American Chiropractic Association,  Jun 2000

Nerve entrapment syndromes

 

Very simply put, the chiropractic neurology consultant will evaluate for subtle changes in the nervous system and seek to identify the level of the blockage or reduced function in the nervous system or indeed the various levels or pathways in the brain. Once the level of the lesion or reduced function is established then treatment including individually highly specific stimulations and exercises designed to improve function of the underperforming area is administered.
