Dr. Loren C. Miller provides chiropractic neurology care for a variety of conditions, including back and neck pain, headaches, stroke rehab, vertigo and dizziness. What is chiropractic neurology?Chiropractic neurology is a speciality that’s rare among chiropractors. Chiropractic neurologists trace pain back to its root through the body’s nervous system. For example, they can tell if a blocked nerve in your shoulder is causing that pain in your back. Chiropractic neurologists like Dr. Miller have the special training needed to make these types of more complete diagnoses. Working with medical doctors.Chiropractic neurologists serve as consultants to medical doctors and other chiropractors, especially in the treatment of pain. Many referrals that come from medical neurologists are to differentiate central from peripheral lesions and to determine whether or not certain treatments will be safe. One of the main differences between chiropractic neurologists and medical neurologists is that the therapies or applications of a chiropractic neurologist do not include drugs or surgery. A lot of the work is done in consultation, where the chiropractic neurologist will examine a patient and then give direction to the referring doctor regarding the mode of therapy or the appropriateness of the therapy. In fact, in recent years a larger percentage of medical doctors have been enrolling in chiropractic neurology training programs. Why Dr. Miller?Dr. Miller is a graduate of the prestigious Carrick Institute of Neurology, which offers advanced neurological specialities around the world. As a result of his extensive training in neurology, Dr. Miller is among only a few chiropractors in the Northwest to complete this level of training. The advanced training Dr. Miller underwent is similar to medical neurology training, but it differs in application. Consequently, chiropractic neurologists like Dr. Miller may recommend treatment or therapies that may not be familiar to other doctors and will likely be new to you, too. Auto injuries are real and can be a source of chronic symptoms.
