Dr. Brandon Brock and I had a fascinating discussion about how inflammation is a key factor in neurodegenerative diseases. We explored how factors like diet, the environment, and post-COVID effects can worsen these conditions. Together, we emphasize the importance of a holistic treatment approach—combining diet, lifestyle adjustments, and innovative therapies like low-level laser therapy to improve outcomes. We also dive into exciting topics like the gut-brain axis, immune resilience, and the transformative potential of functional neurology. You don't want to miss this one! Key Takeaways: Impact of Inflammation on Neurodegeneration: Chronic inflammation significantly contributes to neurodegenerative diseases, making immune modulation essential. Role of the Gut-Brain Axis: The health of the gut directly affects brain function, illustrating the importance of holistic treatments.

In today's episode of the Let's Talk Brain Health Podcast, we delve into the fascinating world of functional neurology with our esteemed guest, Dr. David (Dave) Hardy, DC. With experiences spanning North Carolina, Ohio, and now Alberta, Canada, Dave brings a unique perspective to the table. As a diplomat in functional neurology through the American Chiropractic Neurology Board, he has dedicated his career to helping patients navigate the complexities of concussion, brain injuries, neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental disorders, and metabolic conditions.   Dave's journey is as compelling as it is inspiring. From his early struggles with speech, reading, and writing, which placed him on the neurodevelopmental spectrum, to his personal battles with concussions sustained during high-level rugby and Ironman competitions, his story is one of resilience and discovery. His transformative moment came with simple, seemingly silly exercises prescribed by a fellow functional neurologist, which unexpectedly brought a profound sense of calm and clarity to his life.   This personal transformation fueled Dave's passion for functional neurology—a field that bridges the gap between traditional neurology's diagnostic focus and the need for effective rehabilitation. Dave explains how functional neurology employs a tailored approach, utilizing a variety of modalities from eye movements to aromatherapy, to stimulate specific brain pathways for healing.   Listeners are treated to a heartwarming success story of a patient who, against all odds, made remarkable progress from a debilitating injury to walking across her daughter's graduation stage. Dave emphasizes that brain health is a continuous journey, encouraging everyone to remain active in seeking new ways to enhance their brain function.   The conversation concludes with practical advice, highlighting the importance of breath work as a foundational exercise for brain health, and a rapid-fire round that offers insights into Dave's personal brain health regimen and influential reads. Dr. Dave Hardy's expertise and personal anecdotes leave us with a powerful message: no matter the challenge, there is always a path forward in brain health and wellness.

As runners, we don't think about the brain much. Running is really hard sometimes, but not in the way that quadratic equations are hard. So who the hell cares about the brain? Just keep the heart beating and the lungs breathing and let me get on with my race! Well, my guest today thinks that runners should be paying more attention to their brains. If they did, they may be able to enhance performance and avoid injury. Muscle coordination, timing, balance, visual coordination, hormone regulation, motivation, circulation ... the list goes on. We might think we're just running, but the brain is very busy. Performing and coordinating all of these different tasks is a very complicated job. A job that can be performed extremely well, extremely poorly, or anything in between. Functional Neurology seeks to "hack the brain" and find ways to help it perform these tasks more optimally. It is being applied in the Health Sector towards concussion and other brain injury rehabilitation. It can also be applied to the otherwise healthy runner in an effort to improve their performance. My guest today is Dr. Dave Hardy, he is going to be helping us understand Functional Neurology and why runners might want to consider it as a way to get an edge. Dr. Hardy graduated Cum Laude in his Chiropractic class and has received his Diplomate in Functional Neurology through the American Chiropractic Neurology Board. He has practiced in North Carolina and Ohio before returning home to Alberta. During his time in the U.S., his primary focus was working with patients struggling with concussions and brain injuries, as well as neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental, and metabolic conditions. Dr. Hardy also has a passion for pushing himself athletically, he has completed both the full and half-Ironman distances, and played Rugby at a high level.

There is possibly no hope more potent than one that promises to give you back something you thought you had lost. And that’s something Dr. Tim Saltys, our guest this week, specializes in. As a chiropractic neurologist, he has helped people regain not only the function of their limbs but also their hope. As someone who swore never to be a chiropractor, Dr. Tim not only gives hope to his patients, he also gets hope in return. Join us in this episode to learn more about what a chiropractic neurologist does and how one stumbles onto the path of changing lives. Key Takeaways: Stimulating limbs externally can form new neurological connections. Hope is a cycle-- you can get hope from the people you give it to. Mentioned in this episode: American Chiropractic Neurology Board About Dr. Tim Saltys: Dr. Tim was born and raised in Portugal. He’s always played tennis and eventually chased that dream to Spain, and then to America where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Purdue University. He always knew he wanted to be in a healthcare profession, but for the first 21 years of his life the only one thing he knew was that he did not want to be a part of the chiropractic field! Then it hit him that in fact, chiropractic was the only profession he could see himself being fulfilled in. He attended Life Chiropractic College West and graduated in 2018. He currently co-owns Connected Chiropractic in Calgary, Canada with his fiancé, and most recently became a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board.

The post Podcast 17 – The Power of Functional Neurology (This stuff is so cool!) appeared first on Adventures in Brain Injury.

We often talk about the physcial benefits of exercise- preventing heart disease, maintaining a healthy body weight, bone health, maintaining strength and function.  But most people I work with also understand the mental benefits of exercise.  In fact, the most common reason people workout is simply because it improves their mood.  It helps reduce stress, anxiety, and depression.  It improves focus, concentration and productivity.  I hear "it makes me a better mom".  It simply feels good. And quite frankly, moving your body because it feels good is a lot more motivating than exercising to burn calories, or to reduce a risk of heart disease.  But do you know why exercise improves your mood and brain health?  And do you know what types of exercise best boost your brain health?  I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Dr. Norm Hoffman on the neurological benefits of exercise, and I'm excited to share this episode with you.  Thirty-four years ago, Dr. Hoffman's dad visited his medical doctor because of severe lower back pain that was preventing him from being able to do the manual labor associated with is job. His doctor told him that there was nothing he could do for him and that he would probably end up in a wheelchair within a few years. Dr. Hoffman's didn't accept this answer and upon the advice of a friend visited their chiropractor. Right away he experienced great relief and his back pain went away in a short time.  And that prompted Dr. Hoffman's decision to become a chiropractor.  Since graduating valedictorian with research honors, Dr. Hoffman has continued his passion for learning. He has completed courses and earned certifications in the following so that he can offer his patients the broadest range of natural health choices possible.  Dr. Hoffman's credentials include Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board and Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician.  In this episode you'll: Learn exactly how exercise benefits the brain (we get a little sciency- which I LOVE :) What types of exercise give you the most 'bang for your buck' How exercise can benefit people dealing with neurological problems, such as ADHD, autism, Parkinson's and more.
