No two patients experience a neurological condition the same way. Your treatment at NeuroAxis Health is designed around your specific findings, lifestyle, and goals, so every step of your care is relevant, purposeful, and effective.
What we offer
At NeuroAxis Health, we offer Russian Hill patients a comprehensive suite of chiropractic neurology services designed to address the full complexity of brain and nervous system conditions. Whether you are recovering from an acute injury, managing a long standing neurological condition, or looking to improve cognitive function, our team has the tools, knowledge, and experience to support your care from evaluation through to recovery.
Concussion and brain injury recovery takes more than rest. For Russian Hill patients living with lingering symptoms such as headaches, memory difficulties, emotional changes, or mental fatigue after a head injury, NeuroAxis Health provides detailed neurological evaluations and structured, progressive recovery programs that support the brain as it heals and help you return to the activities that matter most to you.
Chronic dizziness or recurring vertigo can make ordinary daily activities feel unsafe, and on Russian Hill’s steep streets and stairways that risk is very real. Our team works with Russian Hill patients to identify the precise neurological mechanisms behind their dizziness or vertigo and develops focused treatment strategies that target the source of the problem rather than simply suppressing the symptoms.
A decline in balance or movement control affects confidence, independence, and safety in everyday life, particularly in a neighborhood built on sharp inclines and staircases. NeuroAxis Health provides Russian Hill patients with thorough neurological assessments to identify the factors contributing to their balance or movement challenges, followed by individualized rehabilitation programs designed to rebuild stability, improve coordination, and restore ease of movement.
Peripheral neuropathy often shows up as persistent tingling, burning sensations, numbness, or weakness in the hands and feet, and it can worsen significantly without proper neurological care. At NeuroAxis Health, we look past the symptoms to evaluate and address the underlying nerve health issues, giving Russian Hill patients a clear and structured path toward meaningful symptom relief and improved function.
The neurological effects of Long COVID remain a serious challenge for many San Francisco residents, including those in Russian Hill. Symptoms such as cognitive fog, difficulty concentrating, persistent fatigue, dizziness, and disrupted sleep are neurologically driven and respond well to targeted therapeutic intervention. Our team provides thorough evaluations and develops personalized treatment programs to help patients progressively recover their neurological function and well-being.
Migraines are a neurological condition with real, measurable effects on quality of life. For Russian Hill patients who are tired of managing migraines reactively, NeuroAxis Health offers a proactive, neurologically informed approach. We assess the specific patterns driving your migraines and build a personalized treatment strategy that aims to reduce their frequency, lessen their severity, and give you back control over your daily life.
Stroke recovery is a demanding and often lengthy process, but with the right neurological support, significant progress is achievable. NeuroAxis Health partners with Russian Hill patients throughout their rehabilitation journey, applying evidence based strategies to help rebuild neurological pathways, restore motor function, improve communication, and support the highest possible level of independence and recovery.
Whether you are running the Hyde Street hills, training at a Polk Street gym, or dealing with a workplace spine injury, NeuroAxis Health provides Russian Hill patients with rehabilitation programs that address both the physical and neurological dimensions of recovery. Our goal is to help you heal thoroughly and return to activity with strength, coordination, and confidence.
NeuroAxis Health’s Remote Neurofeedback program is built for Russian Hill patients who want access to advanced, clinically guided brain training without traveling to the clinic for every session. Using personalized qEEG guided protocols developed by Dr. Chung, patients can work on improving focus, reducing stress, supporting emotional regulation, enhancing sleep, and strengthening overall cognitive performance from the comfort of their own home.
Russian Hill is one of San Francisco’s most recognizable neighborhoods, a steep rise between North Beach and the waterfront that takes its name from a small Russian burial site found near the summit by early settlers. It is a neighborhood of sharp grades, hidden garden lanes, and sudden views of the bay, home to the famous crooked block of Lombard Street, the Powell-Hyde cable car line, Macondray Lane, and the quiet green space of Ina Coolbrith Park.
Daily life here mixes the residential calm of the upper slopes with the restaurants, cafes, and independent shops along Polk and Hyde Streets. It is a genuinely walkable neighborhood, though the terrain asks a lot of your balance, joints, and coordination, and residents with vestibular, neurological, or spinal conditions often feel the difference here more than they would elsewhere in the city.
NeuroAxis Health is pleased to serve patients from Russian Hill and neighboring areas including Nob Hill, North Beach, Polk Gulch, Telegraph Hill, Fisherman’s Wharf, Cow Hollow, and nearby ZIP codes 94109, 94133, and 94123. Our clinic sits at the foot of the neighborhood on Van Ness Avenue and we are always welcoming new patients. Call (415) 776-7040 to arrange your first appointment with our team.

NeuroAxis Health is committed to providing clear information and guidance for patients seeking advanced chiropractic neurology care near Russian Hill, San Francisco. Below are some commonly asked questions.
Our team treats concussion and traumatic brain injury, dizziness and vertigo, balance and movement disorders, peripheral neuropathy, migraine, stroke recovery, Long COVID neurological symptoms, and sport and spine injuries. If you are unsure whether your symptoms fall within chiropractic neurology, call (415) 776-7040 and our team will talk it through with you before you book.
Steep grades, uneven stairs, and downhill walking place heavy demand on the vestibular system, the visual system, and the joint position sensors in your ankles, hips, and neck. Terrain does not cause a balance disorder, but it does expose one early. If you feel unsteady, veer to one side, or feel briefly disoriented on the Vallejo Street or Greenwich Street steps, that is worth a proper neurological assessment rather than simply avoiding those routes.
We begin with a full neurological workup to map exactly which systems are affected, including autonomic function, eye movement control, and cognitive processing. From there we build a graded treatment program that works within your current tolerance and expands as your capacity improves, rather than pushing you into symptom flare ups.
Yes. A significant part of our patient base is older adults managing more than one condition. Our assessment process is designed to identify any factors that need care or modification, and treatment is adjusted accordingly. Many of our balance and fall prevention interventions involve no manual adjustment at all.
This is one of the most common reasons patients come to us. Standard imaging and bloodwork are designed to rule out structural disease, and they often do not measure how well the nervous system is functioning. Our assessments look at function directly, which frequently explains symptoms that earlier testing did not account for.
Not always. Our clinic on Van Ness Avenue is a short walk or a few minutes’ drive from most of Russian Hill, so in person visits are easy to fit in. Many patients also use our Remote Neurofeedback program to complete sessions at home between clinic appointments.
