So excited to share some of what I have put together the past 20 years w my colleagues down under this weekend! I will be speaking on suprasegmental muscle testing, neurological integration of nutrition, and neurological applications of dreaming. More specifically helping people who don’t dream and who have overactive dreams disrupting their rest and recovery.

LAST CALL Quebec!

We still have a couple of seats left for next weekend's concussion rehab seminar at Auberge du Lac Morency. This will be the last time Dr. Gen and I will be teaching this material in Quebec so if you've been waiting until next year this is the year.

What are we teaching? Oh you know we just low-key expanded AK nutritional challenge into a neuro exam so you can get immediate feedback when working w/ patients suffering from that bump to the head. This might be useful for your brain fog too! Just sayin'! We are going to be workshopping nutritional interventions all weekend. We're also going to show you subtle signs of a failing brain that you can nip in the bud before a much bigger problem emerges-- or how the recurrent problems you are already seeing are impacted by a struggling neurological network. We are going to spend quite a bit of time talking about glial cells and how failing to manage them will lead to clinical failure. You know the same glial cells that rarely get talked about in mainstream or alternative medicine that are about 90% of the neurons in the brain.

Gen will be teaching in french, and translating my french when needed. I will be teaching in english, and also mainly quips and jokes in french. See you next weekend!

What is Long COVID? 🩺 When COVID symptoms stick around weeks or months after infection, we call it Long COVID. It's like your body's fighting an invisible battle long after the initial virus. People experience ongoing challenges like extreme tiredness, fuzzy thinking (hello, brain fog!), breathing issues, heart problems, and weird neurological symptoms. About 1 in 4 people who get COVID might deal with these lingering effects. Scientists are working hard to understand why some people's bodies can't seem to bounce back to normal. If you're experiencing these symptoms, talking to a doctor who understands the symptoms of lingering covid and a provider who offers comprehensive medical evaluation remains crucial for accurate diagnosis and management. Practitioners like Dr. Joe can help you navigate this complex health journey. 💪

Understanding COVID-19's Initial Phase 🦠 When SARS-CoV-2 first enters the body, the acute phase begins within 2-14 days of exposure. Individuals experience primary symptoms including fever, persistent dry cough, and profound fatigue. A distinctive neurological marker is sudden anosmia - complete loss of smell and taste. The viral infection triggers an immediate immune response, with inflammation targeting respiratory tissues. Severity ranges from mild respiratory symptoms to potential severe respiratory distress. Early detection and monitoring remain critical in managing this complex viral syndrome.

What would Dr. Joe do?

From my perspective, there is a multi-pronged way to holistically design a precise treament plan for care. I listen to each patient to find the root of their struggles and use scientifically backed evidence to treat my patients.

The emphasis is process not protocol. I focus on lifestyle and physiological causes to develop personalized healthcare plans. I use every tool available to help patients find their path to recovery and/or peak form.

In my practice, supplements, brain exercises, external referrals, medication, and precision tools all converge to empower patients on their journey to better health. Discover how my comprehensive approach optimizes brain function and transforms lives.

Did you know that your brain's neuroplasticity differs depending on both age and gender?

Each stage of brain development comes with its own unique strengths and challenges of influence. I help the brain and body to integrate and function better, no matter if you're a child, young adult, or well into adulthood. As a neurological chiropractor I unravel the impact of brain development and body function.

In my methodology: the Atlas Method, I explore a holistic approach that goes beyond adjustments, to optimize brain health and enhance overall wellness. Working together, we can discover functional medicine intervention options that can elevate your brain-body connection and unlock your full potential.

What are the nuances between a neurologist, a chiropractor, and a chiropractic neurologist? In this video, I break down the differences in these unique roles in optimizing brain and body health. From traditional neurology to holistic chiropractic care and the specialized realm of chiropractic neurology, each approach complements a comprehensive wellness journey in a different way.

Our proprietary method, known as The Atlas Method, offers a new and personalized approach to healing and combines chiropractic neurology, advanced assessment tools, detailed patient education and therapies from many of the healing arts to achieve both short-term, rapid recovery and long-term, sustainable health. It is always my goal to elevate your understanding of brain-body harmony, and in turn foster whole-body connection and healing.

The Future of Health Care is Already Upon Us. Welcome to Atlas Health

I want you to know what I know about how you can take advantage of what is known about the human body to your benefit. There is so much research and there are so many novel clinical applications of that research that will blow your mind! I’m a chiropractic neurologist, public speaker, entrepreneur, published author, dedicated student, and oh yeah I’m patient with autoimmunity from gluten and strep. I have witnessed first hand the unnecessarily undignified end of life to loved ones from diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. My clinic is in Fairfax California which is just north of San Francisco is called Atlas Health and I get the privilege to help people from all over the world with just about any condition you can think of get their lives back by applying what we know about research to their case. I call the approach the Atlas Method, and the beauty is the same approach can be applied before disease and medical crises happen so one can live long and prosper! The Atlas Method is an open system that is about process not protocol. It’s about the client, not some dogma that the standard and alternative models are world renown for.

About this Photo: This red and white scarf called and OPK strip could absolutely change the trajectory of your life. If you have had me use it during a session you know what I’m talking about already! People talk about the future of medicine being so great. A lot of the stuff they’re talking about we’ve already been implementing for years. There are many great facilities, my passion project is Atlas Health, and the Atlas Method. The future is already here! I read research papers every day and then turn around and apply them the very same day to my toughest cases. I will share what I have learned with you here. If you like it please share it with someone you know so they don’t have to suffer one more minute. Brick by brick my fellow citizen! -- Dr. Joe
