Dr. Amadeo is AMAZING at what he does! He was super intuitive, detailed, and knowledgeable about issues I didn’t even know that I had!

Dr Waldo & Alyssa truly go above and beyond with their patients. I was fit into their busy schedule last minute. Dr Waldo takes his time to thoroughly examine any issues or new complaints. He knows his stuff!! I love that he educates you on how to make simple life adjustments. So much more than your typical DC office, a holistic functional office that truly does it all. Highly recommend to anyone for anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both! We see children, teens, and adults. Our brain-first approach is tailored to each stage of life, from supporting reflex integration and focus in kids to improving balance, mood, and recovery in adults.

Brain first care means considering the nervous system as an important part of how the body functions, adapts, and responds. We look at neurological function alongside movement, development, nutrition, lifestyle, and other health factors to build an individualized approach rather than focusing on a symptom in isolation.

Our office is not contracted with insurance companies. This allows us to provide the time, technology, and individualized care each patient deserves — without the restrictions that come with insurance based models.

Payment is due at the time of service; there is no reimbursement available for treatments or services.  We accept HSA and FSA cards, and financing options are available to make care more accessible. 

Before your appointment, Alyssa will review your concerns, goals, and history to help us prepare for your evaluation. When you come in, you’ll receive a comprehensive neurological and functional assessment to better understand patterns and findings that may be contributing to your symptoms or challenges.

Afterward, Dr. Waldo and Alyssa will work together to outline a personalized care plan that supports your specific goals and helps you move toward long-term healing.
