Functional Neurology

What is Functional Neurology for chiropractors?

Functional Neurology for chiropractors improves neural connections that improve brain function. This is carried out through non-invasive, scientifically supported therapy. Using this method, improvement of brain function can be seen within days. The reason for the rapid improvement is the brain’s neuroplasticity, in other words, its ability to learn at any age.
I have recently completed an extended postgraduate course (>1000 hours) in Functional Neurology for Chiropactors at the Carrick Insitute in Amsterdam, London, Atlanta and Orlando. After observing impressive results achieved in the US, I am convinced of the possible applications of neurology for chiropractors.
My brother, Dr. Thomas Schmid, and myself are the only chiropractors offering this treatment in Switzerland. I am convinced that Functional Neurology for chiropractors can improve the quality of life of many people, as well as offering optimal prevention of health problems (e.g. preventing falls).

What is Functional Neurology for chiropractors?
The treatment is based on a twofold process:
  • Individual examination
  • Specifically adapted individual treatment for each patient
Diagnostic tests:
  • Health questionnaire
  • In-depth functional neurology examination
  • Electro-diagnostic examination ( CAPS, VNG)
  • Autonomic nervous system examination with the high-low table
  • Neurocognitive examination
After these examinations, an individual therapy plan is drawn up. Treatment takes place in my practice in Sierre. The goal of this intensive therapy week is long-term improvement, as well as improvement in the patient’s quality of life. The brain function therapy works thanks to the proven principle of neuroplasticity (the ability of the brain to learn).

What to expect as an intensive treatment patient:
  • measurable, accelerated improvement
  • individual, intensive, specific treatment
  • fixed costs per week
  • a collaborative and empathic procedure
Advantages of our treatment:
  • the treatment is non-invasive, and without medication
  • it accelerates the improvement of brain function
  • treatment is specifically adapted for each patient
  • quantifiable, objective improvement
  • therapies to do at home for long term development
Why go to a chiropractor specializing in Functional Neurology?
After completing my postgraduate education in Functional Neurology for chiropractors (in Amsterdam, London, Atlanta and Orlando) I look forward to offering this extensive treatment method which has tremendous possibilities.
