Many symptoms get brushed off, blamed on stress, or labeled as anxiety. Often, there’s a real neurological reason behind them, and we can help uncover it.

When you are feeling anxious, have you tried engaging your cortex? This is a small clip from our latest podcast episode: Understanding Anxiety from a Brain Prospective. Watch the full video on YouTube, Apple, or Spotify! https://tr.ee/7O7Innaubq

You can have 20/20 vision and still struggle with headaches, dizziness, anxiety, or eye strain.

Binocular Vision Dysfunction happens when the eyes don’t work together properly. When that coordination is off, the brain has to compensate, and symptoms show up. This is why reading, scrolling, driving, or being in busy environments can feel exhausting or overwhelming.

At Precision Brain Center; Dr. Gabella looks beyond standard eye exams to understand how the eyes and brain are working together. When the root cause is addressed, real and lasting change is possible.

If you have been told everything looks normal but you still feel off, this could be the missing piece.

Complex movements = powerful brain
training

Ever notice how movements that require coordination, balance, and timing feel more mentally demanding? That’s because complex movements engage multiple areas of the brain at the same time.

When we challenge the brain with coordinated, intentional movement, we’re not just working muscles. We’re improving communication between brain regions, enhancing motor planning, and strengthening neural pathways through neuroplasticity.

This is why complex movements are often used in neurological rehabilitation. They help retrain the brain, support better movement efficiency, and can even improve focus, balance, and confidence over time.

Simple can be helpful, but sometimes the brain needs a little more challenge to change.

When hearing starts to decline, the brain receives less sensory input. The auditory cortex is highly plastic, so when it is under-stimulated, the brain begins to reorganize those resources elsewhere.

This is why untreated hearing loss is associated with increased cognitive load, fatigue, difficulty with focus, and higher risk of cognitive decline. The brain has to work harder to fill in missing information, pulling resources away from memory, attention, and emotional regulation.

Hearing aids are not just about volume.
They restore consistent auditory input, helping maintain healthy auditory-brain connections and reducing unnecessary strain on the nervous system.

Early intervention matters. Supporting your hearing supports your brain.

Many patients don’t need more rest; they need answers. Functional neurology therapy can be a turning point for people who’ve been struggling for months or years.

Ever notice how when you’re reading about something you genuinely enjoy learning about, your mind feels calmer?
Like the thing you were stressing about fades into the background for a bit.

That’s not a coincidence.

When you’re deeply focused or learning something new, you activate your prefrontal cortex. This part of the brain helps with attention, planning, and emotional regulation. As it becomes more active, it can help quiet stress-driven brain activity tied to worry and rumination.

This is why things like:
• going down a rabbit hole on a topic you love
• learning a new skill
• problem-solving
• even focused reading or studying

can feel grounding when anxiety is high.

It doesn’t mean anxiety disappears. It means your brain shifts into a more regulated state while it’s engaged.

Think of it as giving your brain a job it actually enjoys.
Simple, accessible, and surprisingly effective.

⭐️ We are so excited to be growing and opening up internship opportunities at Precision Brain Center!⭐️

This is a chance to learn inside a busy functional neurology clinic and work directly with Dr. Gabella and our team here in Raleigh, NC. We’re looking for motivated high school students, college students, and Carrick-trained interns who are excited to learn, grow, and gain experience in the world of brain-based rehab.

What you’ll experience:
• Hands-on exposure to functional neurology
• A supportive, mentorship-driven environment
• Real-world experience with complex neurological cases
• Potential employment opportunities as we continue to expand (high school students excluded)

If you’re interested, reach out to our office manager, Victoria, at info@precisionbraincenter.com for more details.
