A 24 year-old female presented to CFNC with complaints of migraines, constipation, dizziness, clumsiness and lightheadedness.   Examination  The examination showed orthostatic intolerance, large instability in all eye movements, instability with doll eyes and head thrust, strength that was weaker on the left side of the body, and severely reduced balance scores when standing with eyes closed. Treatment Treatment consisted of two appointments per week for six weeks. Treatment consisted of peripheral nerve stimulation, oculomotor therapy, red and near infrared light, Bemer therapy, vagal nerve stimulation, dietary modifications and supplementation.  Results The patient has felt an 80-85% improvement since the beginning of treatment. Her bowel movements are more regular, she has not needed to take nausea medication, her clumsiness is better, she hasn’t felt like she is falling backwards, and she only gets “baby” migraines every 2-3 weeks. Conclusion Functional neurology has been shown to be effective for a wide range of conditions including dizziness, clumsiness, and lightheadedness. Individualized rehabilitation is crucial to create positive neuroplasticity for patients. Every patient requires an individualized approach and targeted treatment to achieve optimal results.

A 68-year old female presented to the York, ME office with main complaints of brain fog (consisting of fatigue, memory issues, and trouble with numbers), vertigo, and lack of appetite. Symptoms had been progressing for 2 years, and she had unofficially been given a diagnosis of POTS. Patient reported heart rate spikes as high as 130bpm without any physical activity, unsteadiness while moving around causing her to be confined to her recliner often, and an inability to balance her checkbook. Examination Functional neurological examination revealed widespread dysfunction within the right vestibular system along with oculomotor dysfunction. A complete metabolic assessment also revealed blood sugar dysregulation.  Treatment An acute round of treatment was recommended, consisting of 12 functional neurological treatment sessions. Dietary strategies to address blood sugar regulation were also discussed and implemented. Results After one acute round of treatment, this patient reported an 80% improvement in her symptoms. She is now walking 10,000 steps per day, her appetite has returned to normal, she is able to once again balance her checkbook with ease, and she reports that the incidence of random heart rate spikes has decreased drastically.  Conclusion A thorough functional neurological examination is vital in determining the root cause of complicated and chronic symptoms, as described above. This patient had received a diagnosis of POTS, but a functional examination pointed to vestibular dysfunction as the primary cause of her symptoms. Once properly addressed, her symptoms decreased and her quality of life improved drastically.    Please contact us to learn more or schedule a consultation .
