WHY SYMPTOMS PROGRESS IN NEURO-DEGENERATIVE CONDITIONS
Neuro-degenerative conditions involve gradual loss of neurons or impaired communication within major brain regions such as the basal ganglia, cerebellum, cortex, or brainstem. When these regions decline or weaken, the brain must work harder to process information, maintain posture, coordinate movement, or perform cognitive tasks.
Symptoms may worsen due to:
Underactive or failing neural pathways
Inflammation or immune-related changes
Visual and vestibular processing deficits
Reduced sensory input to the brain
Loss of automatic motor control
Changes in neural plasticity
Poor communication between left and right brain hemispheres
Fatigue from compensating brain circuits
Functional Neurology focuses on stimulating and strengthening the brain regions that are still functional, helping them compensate more effectively.
COMMON SYMPTOMS OF NEURO-DEGENERATIVE CONDITIONS
You may benefit from Functional Neurology if you experience:
Tremors, shaking, or muscle stiffness
Difficulty with walking, balance, or coordination
Freezing episodes or slowed movements
Changes in speech or swallowing
Memory loss, confusion, or slowed cognitive processing
Vision changes or difficulty focusing
Numbness, tingling, or altered sensation
Chronic fatigue or reduced endurance
Poor posture or difficulty stabilizing the body
Emotional or behavioral changes
Sensory overload or difficulty with multitasking
Difficulty initiating or controlling movement
Even when conditions progress, therapy can significantly improve function and daily quality of life.
OUR NEURO-DEGENERATIVE ASSESSMENT
Your neurological evaluation focuses on identifying which areas of the brain and nervous system require support. Testing may include:
Motor and coordination assessment
Gait and postural analysis
Balance and vestibular evaluation
Eye movement testing
Visual-motor and cognitive processing assessment
Reflex, tone, and muscle activation testing
Sensory and proprioceptive examination
Autonomic function assessment (heart rate, blood pressure, fatigue patterns)
This allows us to map how your brain is functioning and determine the best therapy strategies for maintaining and improving neurological performance.
TARGETED NEURO REHABILITATION
After identifying your specific neurological needs, we create a customized plan that may include:
Motor activation and coordination exercises
Gait retraining and balance therapy
Visual-vestibular rehabilitation
Eye movement therapy for improved processing
Proprioceptive stimulation to enhance limb awareness
Strengthening of cerebellar and basal ganglia pathways
Sensory integration strategies
Cognitive training for memory and processing speed
Structural and positional neurological stimulation
Autonomic regulation to improve energy and stability
The goal is to activate strong pathways, support weakened ones, and improve the brain’s ability to adapt.
WHY CHOOSE FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGY FOR NEURO-DEGENERATIVE CONDITIONS
Functional Neurology focuses on preserving function, slowing progression, and improving quality of life through targeted brain-based therapies.
Our approach stands out because we:
Assess the exact neural circuits affected
Identify remaining strengths and maximize them
Improve brain-body communication
Strengthen sensory, visual, and motor pathways
Provide personalized, ongoing rehabilitation
Track neurological improvements over time
Address symptoms that medications alone may not fully resolve
Many patients report improved mobility, clearer thinking, better balance, and greater independence.
HOW LONG DOES IMPROVEMENT TAKE?
Every individual responds differently based on:
The specific condition
Stage of progression
Which brain regions are involved
Current mobility and cognitive status
Level of inflammation, fatigue, or sensory dysfunction
Frequency and intensity of care
Some people notice changes within a few sessions. Others benefit from structured multi-week or ongoing rehabilitation programs to maintain progress.
Our goal is consistent, meaningful improvement — helping you stay active, capable, and confident.
