Neuro-functional Chiropractic assessment
A serious injury requires an appropriate examination
Head injuries, concussions, and whiplash injuries must be treated with precision and using specific methods.
Neck or back pain, dizziness, or headaches are more "obvious" symptoms that prompt people to seek medical attention quickly.
However, as a result of the acceleration/deceleration movement characteristic of a whiplash injury, it is actually your brain that sustains the most severe trauma, even without a direct impact to the head.
Neurofunctional Testing
A functional neurological examination, performed by a chiropractor, is essential before any manipulation of the head or neck.
Consisting of a balance assessment and various neurological tests, it complements a detailed interview regarding the cause of the symptoms.
Alexis Ryan has trained in functional neurology and continues to expand his expertise in this field to tailor his care to each patient.
Teamwork
Without proper treatment, temporarybrain inflammation can lead to long-term consequences that are often overlooked, such as chronic pain, jaw problems, convergence disorders (near vision), and sleep disorders.
During follow-up care, it is common to combine chiropractic care with eye and balance exercises.
Alexis Ryan also draws on a multidisciplinary network of doctors, physical therapists, and psychologists.
