Services
Chiropractic Sports Medicine
Advanced manual therapy treatment and corrective exercise for muskuloskeletal conditions. While getting the patient out of pain as quickly as possible is a top priority, finding the root cause of pain is the ultimate goal. Assessing and correcting global movement patterns is the fastest way to create lasting change; not just provide temporary relief. This approach empowers the patient by giving the tools and confidence to take control of their own recovery and beyond.
Functional Medicine
Functional Medicine involves understanding the origins, prevention, and treatment of complex, chronic disease. This is personalized, patient-centered care which promotes health as a positive vitality, beyond simply the absence of disease. We look “upstream” to consider the complex web of interactions in the patient’s history, physiology, and lifestyle that can lead to illness.The unique genetic makeup of each patient is considered, along with both internal (mind, body and spirit) and external (physical and social environment) factors that affect total functioning.
Functional Neurology
Functional neurology utilizes a variety of evidence-based technologies and a deep understanding of neuroanatomy to enhance the function and integration of the nervous system. Using the principles of neuroplasticity, Dr. Leopold is able to positively change both the brain’s function and structure to improve symptoms and functional limitations. Custom neurological rehab exercises allow the patient to continue the clinical work at home.
Root-Cause Analysis
Treat the cause, not the symptom.
Dr. Leopold is a chiropractor and holistic practitioner who specializes in treating patients with complex and chronic conditions which tend to fall through the cracks of modern medicine. These patients deserve a doctor who will partner with them to find real solutions which address root causes of disease and dysfunction, rather than simply prescribing drugs which cover up the symptoms. This requires fully understanding the patient and their health history as the unique expression of their genetic predispositions, environmental influences, lifestyle factors, neurological imbalances, metabolic fitness, and structural integrity. This is achieved by taking the necessary time to listen to and understand the patient fully, running diagnostic functional lab work and performing a complete neurological exam which is interpreted through the developmental and functional framework.
