Ove the past many years, many have tried Chiropractic Neurologists or Functional Neurologists as Carrick has redefined his specialty.

The results have been about 50-50. Some benefits. Others just spent $7000 to $10,000 looking for results that never came.

Every brain injury is different and will respond to treatments differently.

Every Functional Neurologist is also different. They take the courses and pass the tests but practice as they feel. Chiropractors tend to be very independent and even egotistical.

It does not matter if I did know somebody who benefited. Every brain injury os different. Every Functional Neurologist is different.

Don't spend critical funds for treatment. Use disposable funds that you can risk losing with no pr little benefit. The worst would be coming home with no benefit and bills to pay and no savings left.
