Michael S. Trayford, BS, DC, DACNB

    Diplomates of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board (DACNB) are the first
chiropractors to receive full accreditation by the National Commission for Certifying
Agencies (NCCA), which is the accrediting body of the National Organization for
Competency Assurance (NOCA).

    There are very strict and demanding standards placed upon a chiropractic
neurologist to achieve and maintain diplomate status.  Due to these standards there
are less than 300 active diplomates of the ACNB.

    At Hampton Chiropractic & Wellness Center we practice in a "Brain Based"
model of health.  The brain controls all body systems and proper functioning of these
systems is dependent upon the integrity of the central nervous system.  By the same
token, brain health is dependent upon appropriate and adequate feedback from
these same body systems and the external environment.

    The 1990's were labeled the "Decade of the Brain" due to the extensive amount
of research regarding brain function and it's influence on body systems, not just on
thoughts and emotions.  These body systems, in turn, can be utilized to improve
brain function and overall health.  Treatments include, but are not limited to:
physical/mental exercise, nutrition, stress management, structural balance,
visual/auditory/olfactory stimulation, behavioral/social modification and much more.
