Functional Neurology
Chiropractic Neurology, also known as Functional Neurology, focuses on the brain-body connection and how input from your joints, muscles, and vestibular (balance) system influences your central nervous system.
By using targeted, non-invasive therapies, we help stimulate and re-train specific brain pathways, supporting improved communication and more efficient movement patterns.
Functional Neurology is a non-invasive specialty that uses targeted, receptor-based therapies to support and stimulate brain function. Through a combination of chiropractic adjustments, eye and balance exercises, and cognitive activities, we help enhance neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to adapt and heal – while addressing conditions such as dizziness, vertigo, concussions, and chronic headaches.
Treatment plans typically include therapies customized to “re-wire” the brain, such as:
- Specific adjusting (spinal and extremity manipulation).
- Sensory stimulation (visual, auditory, and olfactory).
- Neuromuscular re-education (eye movements, balance training, and gait training).
- Cognitive exercises.

Chiropractic Neurology
How is this different than typical chiropractic?
This is a more thorough approach for complex cases, it can be done in conjunction with chiropractic care you are doing with another chiropractor or at Apex with Dr. Moje.
