Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries

Many experts agree that the nervous system is the most important system in your body.  Beginning at the 3rd week of gestation, the brain and spinal cord begin development before any other organ system, followed closely by the heart.

As the brain and spinal cord are developing, they are subject to many injuries both nutritionally (folic acid deficiency, alcohol, etc) and structurally (trauma, etc).  After birth, it is estimated that the child's brain will have twice as many nerve connections as an adult by age three and later reach approximately 75% of its full size by age six.

Due to the importance of this vital system, our body's create a "shell" to support and protect the nervous system.  Our skull and spinal cord protect the life supporting nervous system through out our whole lives.

Brain and spinal cord injuries disrupt the function of the nervous system, and create many symptoms through out the rest of our body.  Nervous system injuries come in many shapes and sizes such as strokes, concussions, sports injuries, whiplash, tumors, pinched nerves and aneurysms.

As Houston's only Quantum Neurologist, I often have patients that come in seeking relief from the injuries that they have sustained.  It is not uncommon to hear that patients have gone to many doctors before coming to our office, and were unable to achieve the level of wellness they were looking for.

Quantum Neurology focuses on the functional rehabilitation of the nervous system.  Through traditional and unique neurological evaluations, we are able to identify weaknesses specific to your injury, illness or condition, and in many situations we are able to see rehabilitative changes after the first visit.  Together, with your other doctors, we can often provide the assistance you need to achieve your health and wellness goals.

Be kind to your nervous system.. it is the only one you have!  For more information visit our office website HERE.
