Living Well with a Neurological Condition

February 8, 2019 by

From conditions like Parkinson’s disease and epilepsy to strokes and migraines to traumatic brain injuries and other forms of trauma, up to 1 billion people suffer from neurological conditions… that is one-sixth of the world’s population. The UN World Health Organization studied the prevalence of neurological disorders around the world and found that people in every country are affected, regardless of age, income, sex, etc. The economic impact alone is staggering, reaching more than €139 billion (that is equal to $158 billion American dollars) in Europe alone in 2004 while access to care is extremely limited in other parts of the world. Amidst these stunning statistics, there are millions of stories of resilience and how the human spirit, in conjunction with progressive care plans, are helping people who suffer from neurological disorders to overcome the symptoms and lead a productive, busy and happy life.

The Spirit of Resilience and Adaptability

Tamirra Stewart was an avid figure skater and competitor throughout her young life, practicing hours each day and traveling around the country to compete. After high school graduation, Tamirra took a job, her very first, setting up lighting for special events. It was at this job that she suffered a traumatic brain injury after a fall from a scaffold. In a coma for 18 hours, Tamirra awoke but began developing seizures and other complications that affected her speech and memory. Through a special program for the learning disabled, Tamirra began swimming, running, taking martial arts and more. Today, she has found a love for dance and is back on the competition circuit, this time for professional-amateur ballroom dancing. Her coach has even learned about seizures and head injuries so that he can help if there is even an event that calls for it. Tamirra credits that special education treatment program for much of her recovery success.

The Power of Plasticity

Programs such as the one that Tamirra participated in, along with a variety of others, teach skills by concentrating on the participants abilities and strengths while correcting and compensating for disabilities or weaknesses. The key to such programs lies in the plasticity of the brain. This ability to change connections or “rewire” the brain is incredibly powerful. As changes in the brain take hold through experience, those changes are reflected in increased or new abilities. This ability to change and adapt is extremely valuable to those living with neurological disorders. Plasticity has been credited with reversing damage to the body from strokes, helping athletes return to their game, allowing patients to live well with epilepsy and much more… the stories continue to grow.


Experts in the Realm of Plasticity

Finding a doctor who understands the challenges of living with a neurological condition and can provide an all-encompassing approach to returning their patients to the optimal state of health is imperative. Experts in brain plasticity, Chiropractic Neurologists have a deep understanding of the brain-body connection and the treatments used activate the power of plasticity, create new pathways for neurons and their networks and help patients to safely recover from brain injuries, strokes, symptoms of Parkinson’s and more.

    I'm so grateful to have found GCNC! The worst of my issues when I came here was P.O.T.S and Vertigo. They have helped SO much with both of these things and have been an advocate for my care in other areas. I recommend any and everyone who is having problems to go see them. Everyone in the office is wonderful!

    I have had vertigo for the past 2 years and have seen several specialists. I had to stop driving and was unable to work. GCNC helped me get my life back, I can drive again and I am back to work. Thank you!

    Georgia Chiropractic Neurology Center diagnosed and resolved my vertigo issue. I was able to get immediate relief from dizziness on the first visit, with no drugs or side effects. I was able to drive myself to work, sleep comfortably in my bed, instead of a recliner and get back to my daily activities. The staff is super knowledgeable and professional. They are the real deal. I'm grateful that they have restored my health.

    I recently experienced excruciating neck pain after a long day of travel. I contacted the Georgia Chiropractic Neurology Center as I had heard they do incredible work. My case is fairly complicated as I broke my neck 10 years ago and I’m fused at 3 levels with plates and screws etc. The GCNC is a state of the art facility and the staff are top notch and friendly. After two treatments I was pain free and remain so after several weeks. As a former extreme athlete I have seen my fair share of specialists all over the world. The GCNC is the best I’ve ever been treated by.

    "The whole workforce at Georgia Chiropractic Neurology Center is amazing. They have gone out of their way to treat me, as I came from the UK, and have been incredibly kind and dedicated during the process. I have been treated for over 10 years by various different chiropractors, but nothing has worked for me, until now. I couldn't recommend Georgia Chiropractic Neurology Center enough."

    "From the moment you walk in the door to the moment you leave; you are made to feel like you and your healing is the most important thing. There is not one standard fix for anyone, Dr Ellis feels how your body is working and comes up with your own individual healing plan. He encompasses the whole body, starting with your brain. It’s the most incredible, minimal pain, whole body healing I have ever experienced!!!"

    "After suffering from many concussions and their related symptoms for years, Dr.Ellis and his amazing staff of doctors treated me over the course of two weeks. I’m happy to say that thanks to them I now feel so, so much better. No more vertigo, dizziness, ringing in my ears or mood swings. I can now get back to living and not just existing. I urge anyone suffering to go to GCNC and get the relief they deserve"

    “I have been a patient at Georgia Chiropractic neurology center since 2011. Over the years they have helped me recover from many different injuries. Knee pain, back pain and headache. However, I must say that what I am most grateful for, is the neurologic rehabilitation I received after multiple concussions. A big thank you to everyone at Georgia Chiropractic neurology center. “

    "The staff has been nothing short of amazing. I came into the office with major back issues causing me to barely be able to stand up and walk. After only a few sessions my back issue began to go away and I was able to walk straight again. This place is perfect! Thanks so much...”

    "Dr. Ellis and his team are excellent! The entire experience from intake procedures to the completeness of the examination and diagnostic recommendations are unique, logical and useful in your recovery. As a chiropractor myself, I was extremely impressed with the office itself, his bedside manner and ability to get to the heart of the matter, a great diagnostician! I left with useful information on how to help myself and am now hopeful for a full recovery! If you have not been satisfied with the standard medical treatment for your difficult condition, you owe it to yourself to consult with Dr. Ellis and his team of doctors at Georgia Chiropractic Neurology Center!!"

I was diagnosed with Generalized Dystonia in the Spring of 2016 and it quickly progressed until I met Dr. Ellis and his amazing team. I am incredibly grateful for the care and support that they provide. They have become a HUGE part of my life and feel like family."
