About NeuroAxis Health

NeuroAxis Health has spent more than 20 years building a reputation for outstanding neurological care across San Francisco, including the Bernal Heights community. We are not a general practice clinic. Our entire focus is on the brain and nervous system, and every aspect of our work is built around understanding how neurological dysfunction affects the way you feel, move, think, and function day to day.

 

Dr. Rachman Chung, DACNB, FACFN, QEEG-DL, founded NeuroAxis Health on the principle that every patient deserves a thorough assessment, a clear explanation of their condition, and a care plan that is genuinely tailored to their situation. Whether you are recovering from an injury, managing a chronic neurological condition, or seeking to optimize cognitive performance, our team brings the expertise and dedication to support your goals.

Over Two Decades of Neurological Experience

With more than 20 years of hands-on clinical experience, Dr. Rachman Chung and our team have developed the depth of knowledge needed to effectively assess and treat even the most complex neurological presentations.

What we offer

Our Chiropractic Neurology Services in Bernal Heights, CA

Bernal Heights residents who are dealing with neurological symptoms or recovering from an injury deserve focused, expert care that gets to the heart of the issue. At NeuroAxis Health, Dr. Rachman Chung and our experienced clinical team offer a comprehensive range of services that address the brain and nervous system with precision. We combine in-depth neurological evaluations with targeted, hands-on therapies to support meaningful recovery and long-term neurological wellness.

Concussion & Brain Injury

A concussion or brain injury can cause symptoms that persist long after the initial event. Bernal Heights patients experiencing headaches, memory issues, fatigue, or mood changes can receive comprehensive neurological evaluations at NeuroAxis Health, with structured recovery programs designed to restore function and help you return to your quality of life.

Dizziness & Vertigo Treatment

Dizziness and vertigo can be disorienting and debilitating neurological symptoms. Rather than offering temporary relief, NeuroAxis Health investigates the neurological factors behind your symptoms and develops a focused treatment plan. Bernal Heights patients receive clear answers about their condition and a structured path toward improved balance, function, and confidence.

Balance & Movement Disorders

Balance and movement issues can develop gradually, affecting independence and safety over time. At NeuroAxis Health, we provide detailed neurological assessments to identify the source of these difficulties and create structured rehabilitation programs that help Bernal Heights patients improve coordination, stability, mobility, and confidence in everyday movement.

Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment

The discomfort associated with peripheral neuropathy, whether it is tingling, burning, numbness, or weakness, can be both limiting and frustrating. At NeuroAxis Health, we approach neuropathy from a neurological standpoint, working to understand and address the underlying nerve health issues that are driving your symptoms rather than simply managing them on the surface.

Long COVID Syndrome Care

For Bernal Heights residents still experiencing neurological effects following COVID-19, the road to recovery can feel uncertain and exhausting. Symptoms like persistent brain fog, cognitive difficulty, fatigue, dizziness, and mood changes are real and neurologically based. Our team provides comprehensive evaluations and builds targeted therapeutic programs to help you progressively work through these challenges and regain your neurological baseline.

Migraine Treatment

Chronic migraines are more than just headaches, they can derail your work, relationships, and quality of life. NeuroAxis Health takes a neurological deep-dive to identify the patterns and triggers behind your migraines, then builds a personalised treatment approach aimed at lasting relief rather than temporary fixes.

Stroke Recovery

Neurological rehabilitation after a stroke requires patience, expertise, and a structured approach. At NeuroAxis Health, we work alongside Bernal Heights patients through each stage of recovery, using evidence-based rehabilitation strategies to rebuild function, strengthen neurological connections, improve independence, and support meaningful recovery outcomes over time.

Sport & Spine Injury Treatment

Bernal Heights has an active community, making sports and spine injuries a reality for many residents. At NeuroAxis Health, we assess the neurological factors involved in recovery and develop rehabilitation programs that restore strength, mobility, coordination, and resilience, helping patients return to activity with greater confidence and function.

Remote Neurofeedback Services

Our Remote Neurofeedback program brings clinically guided brain training to Bernal Heights patients without frequent clinic visits. Using individualized qEEG-guided protocols, NeuroAxis Health helps patients improve focus, manage stress, support emotional regulation, enhance sleep quality, and strengthen cognitive performance from the comfort and convenience of their own home.

What a godsend! I had been suffering near constant debilitating migraines from a car accident injury that kept getting worse. I tried steroid shots, radio frequency ablation, you name it, I was desperate to get rid of the awful pain and regain my once active life. Dr. Jesse Tolentino at NeuroAxis is a true miracle worker. Such impressive skill and very compassionate, she has changed my world with her committed care to my healing. I was a bit scared at first because I have a really tricky neck with many complications including osteoporosis. But she assured me with her experience in resolving such issues. Thank god I'm able to function normally again! I can't say enough good things about this wonderful doctor. I highly recommend going here. You will be well taken care of...

I am seeing both Dr. Tolentino and Dr. Chung for sleep issues (I wake up pretty much every hour) and migraines on occasion. My sleep patterns have improved significantly. I am now doing remote-neurofeedback and doing my treatments before bed. Training my brain to sleep through the night. So grateful for these two Docs!

Before I went to Dr Chung, I was having imbalance issues, unable to move my eyes in certain ways without causing immediate and severe neurological issues, and plagued with insomnia and night terrors. Dr Chung's treatment was literally the ONLY thing that helped improve my symptoms.

He genuinely cares about his patients' wellbeing and is even willing to work with them on financial issues. I can't recommend him enough!

Dr. Chung is the best in the city, along with his entire staff who are all so friendly, caring, and knowledgeable! I had a horrible nerve issue that was ongoing for a year post-ankle fracture surgery, and saw 5+ doctors that couldn’t diagnose or figure out why I was having the issue. At one point it was difficult to even walk or day to day activities without feeling chronic pain. Then I saw Dr. Chung, who helped me beyond addressing the root cause - and provided a holistic and long-term treatment. My treatment included advanced red-light therapy, physical therapy, chiropractor sessions, and recommendations for lifestyle changes. He’s changed my life for the better, now living pain-free and back to a very active life - so couldn’t recommend Dr. Chung and his team more!

This is a place where healing happens. My brain and I are in a much better place than when I walked through the doors 5 1/2 months ago. Dr. Chung and Dr. Jessica know how to transform the quality of life for each and every patient. My family and friends are happy to see the new me. I’m grateful that I chose NeuroAxis Health and I hope you do too.
Dr. Chung and the team here are beyond incredible. I feel so lucky to have them helping and supporting me! Dr. Chung is very kind and knowledgeable and is great. Cannot recommend seeing him and going to the practice more!

Amazingly thorough assessments, kind and empathetic staff, and easy to communicate with.
Dr Chung was extremely attentive and caring, and had a lot of tools in his belt. I felt that he was genuinely determined to help me heal my migraines. Really quality care, and a myriad of offerings.
In just a few months, Dr. Chung has made such a difference in my life. When I came to Dr. Chung about my migraines, I was at the end of my rope. I’d tried just about every preventative pharmaceutical on the market and was still having migraines multiple times a week, usually requiring triptans for relief. Within weeks of working with Dr. Chung, I was experiencing significantly fewer migraines and today I am happy to report that I’m two months headache-free. I feel better than I ever thought possible and am working with my primary care physician to taper off preventive pharmaceuticals. I know this would not have been possible without Dr. Chung and his team.

Dr. Chung has a comprehensive, innovative, and compassionate approach to diagnostics and care -- he really tried to get to the bottom of what was causing my migraines, and then designed a customized program of treatment that included neurofeedback, chiropractic adjustments, laser and electrical stimulation, and balance and visual rehab. At each step of the process, he explained the data and science behind the process, which helped engage me in the treatment. He is and his colleague, Dr. Fox, are also incredibly kind, and it is a pleasure to work with them. I am so grateful for their work.

Dr. Chung is the reason I’m a functional human again. I had 2 serious head traumas that left me severely impaired, and he helped me heal and resume cognitive and neural functions. I was a wreck! People don’t believe me when I tell them how I was after my injuries. Forever grateful to him. Super knowledgeable, kind, patient, and overall wonderful human! I recommend him to anyone & everyone who suffered a concussion. He’s the best!!

Working with Dr. Chung has been revolutionary for my traumatic brain injury. For the last few years, I have been experiencing post-concussive symptoms related to vision, balance, and coordination. I came to Dr. Chung feeling defeated and hopeless and through his in-depth assessments, he put many of the pieces together and provided personalized treatment that targets my weaknesses. He keeps all of the details in mind when creating the exercises so that nothing is overlooked or missed. He provides his treatment with the push, persistence and understanding that I need to overcome my symptoms. If you are someone who is suffering from balance, vision issues, concussions or brain injury symptoms, Dr. Chung will provide you the right help towards recovery.

Dr. Chung is everything you’d want in a practitioner; he’s kind, knowledgeable, caring and exceptional in his skills. I originally came for migraine help (and haven’t had a single migraine since my first appointment) and am excited to continue the work on this through his very holistic and comprehensive approach (adjustments, Biofeedback and more). Last week I had a serious inflammation in my knee which completely debilitated me. Just left his office with range of motion and significant less pain after he carefully and methodically worked to uncover the source of the injury and how to relieve the pain and adjust the muscles and joints. He also sent me home equipped with gentle exercises to continue the healing. I’ve seen many practitioners in my life and so far Dr. Chung stands out in all the ways that matter when choosing a doctor.

I've been seeing Dr. Chung since July of 2016 for a lower back issue I developed nearly a decade ago playing collegiate soccer. I've seen a number of chiropractors, orthopaedists, and physical therapists in the interceding years but nothing seemed to work. However, Dr. Chung has managed to accurately diagnose and treat me. I still see Dr. Chung occasionally for routine maintenance as I can't seem to stay away from the soccer field! Dr. Chung's a personable and considerate professional and is a pleasure to work with.

I came to Dr. Chung because of an injury I sustained in a car accident. I'd been to several doctors previously who were unable to heal my injuries and I was suffering from post concussion symptoms as well as a great deal of neck and back pain.

What I liked best about working with Dr. Chung is how patient he is with me and how he takes the time to answer every single one of my questions. Healing from an injury this big can be a very scary experience but I was glad to know I was in very kind and capable hands.

I fully trust Dr. Chung, I think he cares about his patients and he is ALWAYS driven by his desire to help heal people. He came into this practice because of his own experience healing from an injury and that is helpful because it makes him empathetic since he knows how it feels to be the patient as well.

I am truly grateful to Dr. Chung for helping me through this experience and I will be revisiting him for maintenance care as long as I live in the Bay area.

Dr. Chung has helped me with several different issues. I've had problems with a fractured foot, different back problems, and a concussion.

One of the problems with my back I've had for many years . Since I've been seeing Dr. Chung my problem has cleared up completely. I'm able to do things now I could not do before without having a flare-up with my back.

Dr. Chung is comprehensive in his evaluations. He often finds areas I didn't know were not working right and I feel so much better after his treatment.

He is very kind and caring. He is a good listener and educates his patients about how you can continue to improve your health.

I've also had some cognitive issues and was beginning to withdraw from some parts my life. With Dr. Chung's help and recommendations for home self-care I'm feeling better overall.

Frequently Asked Questions

NeuroAxis Health is committed to providing clear information and guidance for patients seeking advanced chiropractic neurology care near Bernal Heights, San Francisco. Below are some commonly asked questions:

We treat a wide range of neurological conditions including concussions and brain injuries, dizziness and vertigo, balance and movement disorders, peripheral neuropathy, migraines, stroke recovery, sport and spine injuries, and Long COVID-related neurological symptoms. If you are unsure whether your condition falls within our scope, we encourage you to call us and speak with our team.

Yes, this is something we see often. Changes in balance, particularly on uneven or inclined surfaces, can indicate underlying neurological or vestibular dysfunction. At NeuroAxis Health, we conduct thorough balance and movement assessments to determine what is affecting your stability and develop a targeted rehabilitation program to help you move safely and confidently on any terrain.

Concussions in young athletes should always be taken seriously, even when symptoms seem minor. The developing brain can be particularly vulnerable to the effects of impact, and early neurological assessment is one of the most effective steps you can take to protect long-term brain health. We work with young patients and their families to perform thorough evaluations and design age-appropriate recovery plans that support a safe and gradual return to sport and school.

Absolutely. Persistent brain fog without a clear diagnosis is one of the most common reasons patients come to us. Standard medical evaluations do not always identify functional neurological issues, which are often at the root of ongoing cognitive symptoms. Our detailed neurological assessments are specifically designed to detect these patterns and give patients the clarity and direction they need to start recovering.

The program begins with a comprehensive qEEG brain mapping assessment that helps us understand your unique neurological patterns. Based on those findings, Dr. Chung develops a personalized neurofeedback protocol that you complete from home using guided sessions. Progress is monitored regularly and protocols are adjusted over time to ensure you are getting the most from each session. It is a flexible and clinically rigorous approach to brain training.

Yes, we welcome new patients directly and no referral is needed to schedule a consultation. Simply call us at (415) 776-7040 and our team will set up your initial appointment, which includes a comprehensive neurological evaluation and a discussion of your symptoms, history, and treatment goals.
