Dr. Bagnell shares his 30-year journey as a "health detective" in functional neurology, revealing how he helps patients with persistent cognitive symptoms after brain injury through careful investigation and targeted interventions.
• Brain fog often stems from disrupted neurovascular coupling, where blood flow fails to properly supply active brain regions
• Dysautonomia (autonomic nervous system dysfunction) can create cognitive symptoms by limiting blood flow to the brain when needed
• QEEG brain mapping identifies specific patterns of brainwave dysfunction, showing signatures of "too much delta and too much high beta" in concussions
• The brain functions in interconnected networks rather than isolated regions, requiring comprehensive assessment
• Combining "passive" therapies (neurofeedback, audiovisual entrainment) with "active" functional neurology exercises creates optimal recovery
• Spatial awareness problems after concussion explain why patients frequently bump their heads
• Brain activation can naturally restore neurotransmitter production without medication
• Creating a personalized "brain formula" for each patient yields better results than one-size-fits-all approaches
• Dolphin-assisted therapy provides unique neurological benefits through echolocation and movement patterns
