Most of the people who come into our clinic, Peak Brain and Body, have chronic fatigue, brain fog, headaches, mood changes, memory issues, and often even dizziness. They usually come with a variety of diagnoses. Some of these are truly what's going on; others are more diagnoses of symptoms but don't actually help them get these solutions they are looking for.

They often come in, and while they are excited about getting a comprehensive evaluation, they are so used to the body being separated into little pieces that not everyone understands why we evaluate:

- brain health
- immune health
- metabolic health
- talk about nutrition
- and for some, even do gut testing

The reality is that the body connects as a whole. The health of the gut and the gut microbiome impacts the health of the brain, and the health of the brain also impacts the health of the gut and the microbiome.

The days of picking only one part of the body and ignoring how it connects to the others should be long gone. As patients present with more complexity and chronicity of symptoms and diseases, the need to address each and every person as a complete individual instead of our favorite body part is becoming more and more important.

This is why many individuals were left frustrated with other providers, because even though they were right about one thing that needed to be treated, it wasn't a complete enough plan to address the complexity of their needs.

Migraines impact millions a year. For some the medications keep them away for a time, for other the medications don't work at all.

At Peak Brain and Body our approach is meant to identify the factors driving migraines and address them. This allows for lasting relief and gets rid of the reliance on not only medications but also routine care.

Comprehensive care addresses the pieces of your puzzle.

The average person struggling with concussion, POTS, migraines, or who suffered a stroke has realized over time that getting better is very hard. Most have been told to accept a new normal because their symptoms are so common, and it seems nothing they are doing is working. I understand your frustrations, and that's why we built our clinic specifically for individuals like you.

You are a complex case. There are multiple things going on, and you feel that no one is listening to you. Each person is trying to find one little piece and address it, and when that happens, you don't really see any type of meaningful results.

Because we know cases are complex, we don't try to find the one thing. We understand that, while all of these are neurological-based issues, we have to understand how the brain is functioning in a way that imaging cannot show us. We also understand that the health of the body and the immune system will directly impact the functionality and health of the brain. That means that we go more in-depth with lab testing, and we address the things that are found, from hormones, anemia, blood sugar, immune markers, gut health, and more.

When these complex cases receive a well-rounded plan, we routinely see them get results that they were told were out of reach and impossible. The reality is it's not impossible or out of reach if you have a comprehensive plan to address the complexity of your unique case.

Results that most consider a miracle are highly predictable when you have the data to support the plan.

We do intensives for those traveling in from out of state and only have a few spots open over the next 6 weeks. If you are interested reach out.

Have you ever just assumed something and it ended up not being true?

I want others to learn from my mistake.

I've dealt with chronic back pain for 19 years, initially MRI showed a bulging disc.

Over the past 6 months I've been in a constant flare, but because flares of 1-2 months aren't too uncommon for me I did what I'd always done.

When it didn't work, I finally decided to get an MRI and it showed 2 herniations that actually line up very well with the pain I've been having. One of the reasons I didn't get imaging is because I didn't have any type of acute injury that caused it.

Here's what I want you to take away from this, we see individuals every day who struggle with a wide variety of symptoms: fatigue, brain fog, headaches, mood changes, and poor memory. When we do our advanced testing, nearly 75% will have abnormal findings with their eye movements that explain their symptoms.

The next question is often where did this come from. It's easy when there was a concussion, whiplash, stroke, or infection; but that doesn't have to be the case. In the same way my discs broke down over time and have created a mess, the brain can also wear down over time and cause chaos in your life.

Sometimes we can't identify a specific cause, but it can be predictably treated which is what matters most.

P.S.- yes, I'm also a Chiropractor which makes it more interesting because even though I was trained thoroughly in the spine and disc issues; it's not my area of focus. Make sure you see a provider where it's something they routinely do.

Your eyes are not just for seeing.
They are one of the most direct windows into how your brain is functioning.

We routinely see abnormal eye movement findings in individuals with POTS, dysautonomia, concussions, migraines, and chronic dizziness.

When the brain cannot properly control the eyes, it can contribute to:

• Brain fog
• Headaches
• Fatigue
• Poor concentration
• Memory struggles
• Neck pain

Most clinics never evaluate this.

Standard imaging often looks normal. But functional testing tells a different story.

At Peak Brain and Body, we use advanced eye movement testing to uncover neurological dysfunction that others miss. That is often where real answers begin.

If you are still searching for why you feel the way you do, a deeper evaluation may be the missing piece.

About Me

Hi, my name is Spencer Zimmerman. I am a healthcare provider trained as a Nurse Practitioner and Chiropractor. I believe patients play a critical role in their health, but they often feel hopeless in that pursuit. They may feel the only thing they can do is to take a prescribed medication, but this is far from the truth. I believe my role as a provider is to act like a coach for my patients. A coach helps an athlete take their game to a new level. The athlete may not know what they need to do but with the right coaching they can improve as long as they are putting in the work.

I seek to provide and arm my patients with the knowledge and skills to improve their health. There are so many things that they can do when instructed properly such as diet, lifestyle, exercise, stress reduction, mindfulness, and sleep hygiene to take control of their health.

I have a particular interest in helping those with neurological based symptoms or conditions such as concussion, mTBI, TBI, stroke, dementia, vertigo, and migraines. In addition to these I help those suffering from autoimmunity, gut issues, chronic fatigue, and chronic infections.
