Serious About Your Health<br />

At the Conde Center for Chiropractic Neurology, chiropractic<br />
medicine is serious business. “Our brand of healing is less<br />
fluff and more precision, accuracy, and results driven.”<br />
The Conde Center for Chiropractic Neurology is backed by a<br />
standard of excellence that is unparalleled. “Our treatment<br />
modalities and techniques are based on the latest clinical<br />
research. We focus on conditions that are difficult to solve,” said<br />
Dr. John Conde, Board-Certified Chiropractic Neurologist and Diplomate<br />
of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board.<br />
As one of the few Board-Certified Chiropractic Neurologists, Dr.<br />
Conde’s approach to healing utilizes advanced neurological rehabilitation<br />
protocols combined with traditional orthopedic medicine.<br />
“The conditions we treat are often difficult to solve (and diverse<br />
in nature) due to the world-class neurological and orthopedic treatment<br />
options,” said the doctor. The conditions can range from disc<br />
herniations, sciatica, spinal stenosis, numbness-tingling to stroke,<br />
traumatic brain injury and dizziness.<br />
“We help people get out of injury– and go from pain and dysfunction<br />
to wellness,” said Dr. Conde, a Summa Cum Laude graduate<br />
and Valedictorian of his class at Parker College of Chiropractic<br />
in Dallas, Texas.<br />
They sure do. Just ask Peter, a patient at the Conde Center. “I’ve<br />
had neck and shoulder issues for years and have tried all types of<br />
therapies. I just started with the Conde Center and I’m already in<br />
much less pain and I’m sleeping through the night. Dr. Conde is<br />
great, and Megan is awesome. They pulled me back from the brink<br />
of disability into a functional state.”<br />
“In order to achieve positive outcomes for our patients - and attain<br />
a high standard of consistent excellence - you have to employ<br />
and elite team of doctors and chiropractic assistants and invest in<br />
state-of-the-art equipment.”<br />
Dr. Conde is grateful to have Dr. Robert Safranski, chiropractic<br />
physician, on his team. “He brings expertise, innovation, and<br />
passion to the treatment regimens instituted here. The patients<br />
truly love him.”<br />
Some of the therapies and treatments utilized at the Conde Center<br />
include Class IV high power laser therapy, non-surgical spinal<br />
decompression therapy, whole-body vibration, and orthopedic<br />
taping to name a few.<br />
“These modalities accelerate tissue healing by tenfold. They are<br />
also restorative for rehabilitating injured discs, tendinitis and arthritis.<br />
It is wonderful to work with tools that heal and not just<br />
mask the pain. It is even more wonderful to have such a highly<br />
trained team providing these treatments. Our chiropractic assistants<br />
receive intensive training,” said Dr. Safranski.<br />
According to Dr. Conde patients who come to the Conde Center<br />
marvel at the thorough and comprehensive examinations they<br />
receive. “We take pride in coming up with an accurate working<br />
diagnosis and treatment plan that will resolve the problem,” said<br />
Dr. Safranski.<br />
Part of this comprehensive exam now includes a Functional<br />
Movement Systems (FMS) screening provided by a new member<br />
of the team, Arantxa “X” Velezmoro. “X” (as she is affectionately<br />
called) is a highly certified personal trainer. FMS is invaluable<br />
for analyzing the body movement systems. “It focuses on areas of<br />
pathomechanics or broken-down movement and generates exercises<br />
to stabilize these dysfunctional regions. Patients are amazed<br />
on how foot pan can be caused by improper mechanics of the hips.”<br />
One person who has benefited from these advanced orthopedic<br />
treatments and FMS is Tom. “Dr. Conde’s prescribed laser, electrostim<br />
and manipulation have helped keep this 70-year-old running. I<br />
also highly recommend his staff personal trainer. In only 5 sessions<br />
she helped this lifelong fitness addict improve range of motion, balance<br />
and posture. I now do everyday activities like rising from a sitting<br />
or kneeling position with much less strain. And, the exercises<br />
she has given me have greatly reduced shoulder and neck tension<br />
while improving range of motion.”<br />
The Conde Center has recently unveiled the “Applied Clinical<br />
Neuroscience” (ACN) Wing. The ACN department provides<br />
cutting-edge treatment for neurological ailments such as stroke,<br />
brain injury, dizziness-vertigo, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis,<br />
and dystonia using breakthrough functional neurology rehabilitation<br />
practices.<br />
“Functional neurology is based on the groundbreaking finding of<br />
neuroplasticity, which says the brain and nervous system can be<br />
molded or shaped according to its environmental stimulus. The<br />
areas of poor neurological function can be made stronger by performing<br />
targeted therapies,” said Dr. Conde.<br />
In order to achieve these miraculous results, the ACN wing is<br />
outfitted with the most innovative and evidence-based equipment<br />
to diagnose and treat these neurological conditions. One of these<br />
tools is the Dynavision D2. It works on areas of the brain responsible<br />
for problem solving, timing, sequencing, planning, thought<br />
processes speed and coordination.<br />
“When using the D2, the patient manually compresses targets<br />
made of 64 blinking LED lights pre-set by the intelligent software.<br />
The information is recorded, and attention is placed on<br />
speed and sequence.”<br />
The Dynavision D2 has been utilized in many studies; including<br />
one the Conde Center was involved in with the Upledger Institute<br />
and the Ricky Williams Foundation. “This study neurologically assessed<br />
six retired National Football League players with at least<br />
one concussion in their career. The results were astounding because<br />
the players displayed numerous deficiencies in brain activity<br />
and their condition improved after treatment,” said Dr. Conde.<br />
The success of these revolutionary treatment modalities makes<br />
Dr. Conde even more optimistic about the Conde Center’s ability to<br />
help patients who come to the clinic with unresolved neurological<br />
conditions. “We are treating serious problems like dementia, vertigo,<br />
traumatic brain injuries, stroke, and even Parkinson’s disease<br />
and seeing outstanding results.”<br />
The Conde Center’s mission statement is centered on their<br />
pledge to honor their patient’s patronage and trust with service,<br />
clinical insight, and an unwavering commitment to their health<br />
that goes beyond their highest expectations. “This is recited at our<br />
weekly team meetings and runs deep in our team’s approach to patient<br />
care,” said Dr. Conde.<br />
