Understanding Your Symptoms

Dizziness or fogginess? Our assessments offer a clearer understanding.

Symptoms such as dizziness, vertigo, migraines, balance issues and visual instability may involve interactions between the brain, eyes, inner ears, spine, and body. We provide personalized chiropractic care with a neurology-informed approach for patients with complex balance, movement, and nervous system-related concerns who are ready to take an active part in a structured care plan.

Evidence-based Tests & Assessment

Tilt Table Testing is an assessment option for symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, lightheadedness, and suspected autonomic dysfunction, including suspected POTS. Testing results are reviewed in the context of your full clinical picture and may support referral or collaborative care.

Even though tilt table testing can be helpful, it does not tell the full story on its own. That is why we may use additional supportive tests to get a more complete understanding of how your nervous system is working overall.

Postural Systems (CAPS)

A force plate observes how your body maintains balance while standing under different conditions, recording subtle shifts in weight and position.

Videonystagmography (VNG)

Specialized goggles record and analyze eye movements to provide information about eye tracking, visual stability, and dizziness-related patterns.

NeckCare

Lightweight sensors observe how accurately the neck and head move through specific tasks, assessing proprioception, posture, and movement control.

Video Head Impulse (vHIT)

Assesses the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) to evaluate how the eyes and vestibular system respond during quick head movements.

Our Difference

What Sets Us Apart from Traditional Chiropractic

The goal is not only to reduce symptoms, but to better understand why the body is struggling and support the systems involved in recovery.

We assess neurological, vestibular, visual, and movement findings

We explain what the findings may mean, discuss your care options, and agree on your role in the plan

3

We monitor changes using clinical observations and objective testing

Our care goes beyond a standard spinal adjustment. While traditional chiropractic care often focuses primarily on joints, alignment, pain relief, and mobility, our approach looks more closely at how thespine, brain, eyes, inner ear, balance system, and nervous system work together.

Our Rationale

3 reasons patients choose a neurologically-focused approach

1

Symptoms like racing heart, brain fog, dizziness, or fatigue can be frustrating. Mainstream treatments may provide temporary relief, but they may not have explained what is actually happening in your nervous system.

2

Standard assessments may not always capture the full picture when symptoms are complex. Our detailed assessments may help identify a pattern your doctor may not have noticed, with assessments informed by your complete nervous system picture.

3

Many diagnoses describe what you are experiencing, but they may not always explain which systems are contributing to your symptoms. At Anew, we look at three areas of your nervous system that are often overlooked and that may connect to what you are feeling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why neurology-focused?

Also known as Functional neurology is an assessment and care approach that looks at how the nervous system may be functioning, including areas such as eye movements, balance, coordination, posture, reflexes, and movement control.

This approach is used within our chiropractic care to help guide individualized recommendations. Depending on your findings, care may include exercises or therapies involving eye movements, balance training, sensory input, movement retraining, and chiropractic care when appropriate.

Do I need a referral?

No. You do not need a referral to book an appointment. You can schedule directly with the clinic.

If you have imaging, test results, specialist reports, or a referral from another healthcare provider, you are welcome to bring them. These records can help provide a more complete picture of your health history, but they are not required to book.

What symptoms or concerns do you commonly assess?

We commonly assess patients experiencing symptoms or concerns such as dizziness, vertigo-like symptoms, concussion-related symptoms, headaches, migraine-related concerns, balance and coordination difficulties, motion sensitivity, visual instability, neck pain, and autonomic-related symptoms such as lightheadedness or fainting.

We also see patients who have complex or persistent symptoms and are looking for a more detailed assessment of how their balance, movement, visual, spinal, and nervous system findings may relate to what they are experiencing.

Care recommendations are individualized and based on your health history, examination findings, goals, and whether chiropractic or neurology-informed care is appropriate for your situation.

What is Tilt Table Testing used for?

Tilt Table Testing is an assessment used to observe how heart rate and blood pressure respond when the body changes position, especially from lying down to an upright position.

It may be used when someone is experiencing symptoms such as fainting, lightheadedness, dizziness, or suspected orthostatic intolerance, including suspected POTS.

The results can help provide useful information about autonomic responses and may support care planning, referral, or collaboration with other healthcare providers when appropriate.

If you have been experiencing symptoms

These include as dizziness, vertigo, light-headedness, fainting, concussions, migraines, balance issues, visual instability or neck stiffness.
