  Dr. George Michalopoulos & his colleagues at the Neurological Wellness Institute (formerly IL Neuro & Physical Rehab) treat patients w/ respect, encouragement & hope. The atmosphere is much more positive than other neuro rehabilitation places I've been. A patient is not viewed as a person to be pitied as if there is an unseen ceiling to their possible improvement, but is viewed as someone who simply hasn't been given the corrective action tools to deal w/ the root cause of their problem.
  
  Twenty years after I was a passenger in a life-threatening car accident, I was introduced to Dr. George & Functional Neurology. Since my original rehab in 1997, Functional Neurology has emerged as a field which treats brain injuries, concussions, dysautonomia, POTS, migraines, tics, headaches & other complex neurological disorders, whether they are from trauma, environmental causes, or hereditary. Functional Neurology treats by forming new brain pathways & strengthening old ones.
  
  In my initial paperwork, I was asked to list 2 issues I wanted addressed. Since the accident, anything requiring fine motor control w/ my right hand was difficult because it would involuntarily shake. I found the most annoying effect to be using a pen, so much so that I started writing w/ my left hand. Also, although I had received medical clearance years before to eat & drink normally, I found that, especially when sleep deprived, I could not swallow properly & I would choke.
  
  At my first appointment, Dr. George did testing w/ his VOG & saccadometry machines. Afterward, I did a therapy session & was given exercises to do at home. Patients are to come for as many days as possible for 2 weeks (11 sessions). At the 12th session, patients are asked to give feedback on whether they see improvement. After my 2nd or 3rd session, I went home & played scales on the piano. I was a bit surprised, but thrilled, at how synchronized my hands were. When playing scales since the accident, my right hand was always slower than my left. While it had improved w/ practice, I always knew there was a difference. Now, it's fun for me to sit down & play scales, although I'm sure my childhood piano teachers wished I had the same view then.
  
  After my initial visits, I went out of state for a contract job, but, w/ these improvements already, I wanted to continue w/ this therapy. Dr. George gave me 3 exercises to do while away-one w/ stripes on my iPhone, one w/ dots on my iPad, & one w/ a single dot on a piece of paper. The exercises seemed silly & did not appear to have anything to do w/ my problems, but, knowing the goal of training new brain pathways & having experienced some improvement already, I took the exercises, intending to do them.
  
  With the changes of a new job, I didn't always have time to do every exercise every day. Some days, my swallowing was not a problem & other days I would choke. After a few weeks, I learned that the one w/ the single dot was most beneficial. I also found that I could use myself as a test subject for strengthening brain pathways in that I could go longer & longer between doing the exercises before I would have trouble swallowing.
  
  After a few months, I saw Dr. George again. He retested me & upgraded my exercises w/ more dots. I keep seeing improvements and, while I still write predominately w/ my left hand, it has been nice to use my right hand for more detailed tasks.
  
  If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with, or suspect the problems are related to neurological issues & have either reached a recovery plateau or don't want to use pharmaceuticals, take advantage of the fact that people have studied which pathways of the brain are related and have translated that knowledge into simple exercises. The Functional Neurology principles used by Dr. George & his team treat the brains & bodies of patients in ways that conventional medicine & drug therapy cannot. My improvements have surprised & pleased me.

  Dr. George, Dr. Mike and Dr. Matt and the entire team and staff are absolutely incredible. They are very friendly but besides that they’ve changed my son’s life. Their techniques and skill sets are revolutionary. Everyone I speak to that goes there has nothing but positive things to say and commend the team for making their lives better. Thank God for this place!

  These doctors have helped my husband so much! They did in a metter of weeks what three other medical groups couldn't do in 2 years! Love that they actually get to the root of the problem and they explain EVERYTHING so you understand. The best part is they are not drug pushers!! Hubby has not been on any perscription drugs since the beginning of his treatment. I won't lie, some medical insurances don't cover some of the testing, but I believe it's money well spent! So if you suffer from any neurological disorder...PLEASE call them and stop your suffering!
