Dr. John Conde is always on a mission to help people live their best life. As a Chiropractic Neurologist he knows how to expand the boundaries of healing modalities until he finds treatments and solutions for a myriad of challenging conditions.
That is why he opened the Functional Neurology Brain Center of Florida in Delray Beach. Dr. Conde has been in practice for the past 20 years at the Conde Center, where chiropractic care and neurology are combined to reach maximum results.
But with the Functional Neurology Brain Center of Florida they are achieving high levels of improvement for those suffering from traumatic brain injuries, strokes, vertigo and dizziness, disequilibrium, cognitive impairments, and chronic regional pain syndromes.
They start out looking for answers to the problem. This centers on assessment, quantification, and rehabilitation of the nervous system. It is accomplished with sensory, motor, and cognitive-based therapies that promote neuroplasticity, integrity, and optimization. Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to rewire itself and adapt by forming new neural connections that help the body rehabilitate. “This remarkable capacity allows the brain to compensate for injury and disease by reorganizing its structure and function,” said the Board-Certified Chiropractic Neurologist.
Through neuroplasticity it is possible to see improvement with traumatic brain injuries, stroke, vertigo-dizziness-disequilibrium, cognitive impairments, and chronic regional pain syndromes.
“Neuroplasticity offers a foundation for therapeutic interventions. Rehabilita-
tion strategies are often able to harness this plasticity to help patients regain lost functions or develop new ways to perform tasks.”
To achieve great results in 21st century healthcare, it is often imperative to use state-of-the-art equipment. That is exactly what Dr. Conde has done. He is one of only 54 practices to use a Gyro Stim Device. This multi-axis rotating chair is a sophisticated tool that promotes brain health and functional recovery through motion-based therapy.
“My vision for this practice was to deliver the most advanced evidence-based treatment in an environment with state-of-the-art technology and expert physicians,” said Dr. Conde.
His vision has an acuity that is being felt far and wide. Patients come from all over for treatment of conditions that have plagued them for years.
Jill Kenney is one of them.
“I saw four neurologists in eight years and was told my condition was progressive and nothing could be done. Then I was assessed by Dr Conde. I was given more information than any previous doctor, and he designed a 6-week program for me. It gave me HOPE and improved the quality of my life. In three sessions I feel improvement – I am so happy to have found him. Their entire staff is terrific.” As a means to the goal of treating conditions such as Parkinson, Dizziness, Post-stroke Deficiency and Traumatic Brain injuries, testing and research is completed to understand what is happening in the body.
That is where Functional Neurology Brain Center of Florida has the home-court advantage. They have advanced diagnostic testing, that Dr. Conde feels has all the “bells and whistles” (and rehab tools) so they can lift the hood up and look at the engine.
Many of the Diagnostic tools and cognitive testing is done in conjunction with the Cleveland Clinic. The tests enable the doctor to get a more exact treatment and pinpoint diagnosis.
These evidence-based tests are called Vestibular Rehabilitation, Neuro-Visual Therapy, Cognitive training, Receptor-based Brain Stimulation and Proprioception.
They also have C3 Logix software, which is a cognitive battery of tests that compares a person to their 50% counterparts that measures evidence-based and data-driven results for an accurate diagnosis.
They also use VNG, an advanced balance assessment machine that computes balance order or disorder. “Though these different testing mechanisms we are able to create detailed treatment plans to strengthen those areas in the brain that are not functioning properly,” said Dr. Conde.
Dr. Conde’s goal to have a world class clinic where people could radically improve their quality of life, and live optimally, has been achieved. Just ask his patients.
“Dr Conde gave me my life back!! A year ago, I started having awful balance and vertigo problems. I was bounced from ENT doctors to neurologists. I had so many tests and NOBODY could figure out what was wrong. I found The Conde Center! I was stunned to hear that they specialized in PPPD (chronic vertigo). Dr Conde did a lot of state-of-the-art testing and knew exactly what was wrong with me. After one month of neuro exercises and neck decompression and massage, I was back to my normal self! The Conde Center works miracles!”
That is exactly why Dr. Conde added this state-of-the-art Functional Neurology Brain Center to his existing Conde Center which specializes in Chiropractic Neurology.
And many people are happy that he did.
One patient came after suffering for 10 years with severe dizziness. She couldn’t get an answer until she saw Dr. Conde. He put her through Gyro Stim and other therapies and it turned out she had Vestibular Processing Disorder. After treatment, she no longer had dizziness.
Another man came from the Caribbean after a traumatic brain injury from a water sports accident. He had cognitive impairment from the accident, but after intensive treatment several times a day for two weeks, he was 90 percent better.
Another patient had a traumatic brain injury from a motorcycle accident. “He couldn’t walk and had minimal use of his arms. After treatment we got him walking with a cane and he had much greater use of his arms and limbs.”
These stories sound like miracles, and they are. But it is the exact reason Dr. Conde became a functional Neurologist. He witnessed his father’s work ethic (as a doctor) and his desire to heal others. And his son wanted to do the same.
“I came into this field to help improve the quality of life for people. We can help patients regain lost functions or develop new ways to perform tasks. That was always my goal.”
