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.

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.

The NeuroAxis Approach

The Functional Neurology Evaluation

The Functional Neurology Evaluation is the first step in your recovery. We measure how your brain processes information across sensory, motor, and cognitive systems. This helps us identify where your symptoms originate and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

With these insights, we design a personalized therapy plan that addresses the root causes rather than simply managing symptoms.

This evaluation examines seven key areas of brain and body function:

  • Brainwaves (qEEG): measures electrical activity in the brain and can identify patterns linked to sleep, mood,cognition and sensory-motor systems.
  • Neuro-Cognition: measures and tracks attention, memory, psychomotor speed, reaction times, executive function and behavioral symptoms.
  • Oculomotor: evaluates eye movement control and brain pathways linked to vision, balance and focus. 
  • Vestibular: assessment of balance and inner-ear reflexes related to posture, motor control and orientation.
  • Somatosensory: examination of musculoskeletal, orthopedic and sensory-motor systems.
  • Autonomic: evaluates how the autonomic nervous system regulates cardiovascular, respiratory, and stress responses in the brain and body.
  • Physiology: lab testing ordered when needed to evaluate metabolic, immune, hormonal and nutritional factors linked to recovery and optimal wellness.

Integrative Therapy Strategies

Our therapy protocols combine advanced, evidence-based treatments, including:

  • Neuromodulation – infrared light and electrical stimulation therapies to stimulate sensory-motor function, promote healing, circulation, and nerve and muscle function.
  • Neurofeedback – training brainwaves to improve sensory-motor integration and communication between networks involved with mood, sleep and cognition.
  • Biofeedback – training the brain and body to self-regulate and improve autonomic nervous system.
  • Neurorehabilitation – task-specific exercises to improve sensory processing, balance, coordination and movement.
  • Vestibular Rehabilitation – restoring stability and reducing dizziness or falls.
  • Chiropractic Care– improving joint mobility and muscle imbalances to improve posture, range of motion and movement. 
  • Lifestyle and Nutrition – to decrease inflammation, increase energy and support brain health. 

This integrated model sparks neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to reorganize itself, helping restore lost functions or retrain healthy regions to step in where needed.
