Aura Functional Neurology Center

What Aura Functional Neurology Center does

Aura Functional Neurology Center (Aura FNC) is a privately held, single-location functional neurology practice operating out of Cumming, Georgia, in the Atlanta metropolitan area. The firm was founded by Dr. Diana Tyler, a Board-Certified Chiropractic Neurologist (DACNB) trained through the Carrick Institute, and operates as a cash-pay practice that does not bill insurance carriers. Its commercial core is a set of intensive, all-inclusive neurorehabilitation programs delivered in 5-, 10-, or 15-day blocks at 1 to 3 hours per day, in 1:1 sessions with the clinical team, followed by a structured 3-month home treatment plan with telehealth check-ins. A second practitioner, Dr. Danielle Barron, has been added with a pediatric neurodevelopmental specialization. The customer base is direct-to-consumer individuals suffering from conditions underserved by conventional neurology: migraine, dysautonomia and POTS, concussion and TBI, Long COVID, neurodevelopmental disorders (including autism and ADHD), and functional neurological disorder. Patient acquisition is driven by a content-led strategy (Neuroscience Blog plus Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and X), provider referrals, and JaneApp-driven self-serve booking for complimentary consultations.

The technical architecture rests on a multi-modal diagnostic and therapeutic stack rather than proprietary IP. Diagnostics include the FDA-cleared CNS Vital Signs neurocognitive battery (11 domains), Balance Tracking Systems force-plate postural analysis, and the Neuro Sensorimotor Integrator (NSI) 50-inch touchscreen system covering 40+ neurological parameters. Therapeutic modalities combine functional neurology, functional nutrition, neuromodulation (TMS, TENS, peripheral nerve stimulation), Red Light / Near-Infrared photobiomodulation, whole-body vibration, BrainTap audio-visual brainwave entrainment, and brain-based chiropractic adjustments (Diversified, Gonstead, Y-Strap/Pettibon, Activator, Thompson, SOT). Practically none of this hardware or software is uniquely owned by the firm; the differentiation lies in protocol design, simultaneous multi-modality application, and clinician interpretation.

The business model is professional-services, cash-pay, with no insurance reimbursement. Pricing is bundled into the multi-day program tiers (specific list prices are not publicly disclosed), with payments accepted in cash, credit cards, HSA/FSA cards, CareCredit, and approved 3-month in-house payment plans under the No Surprises Act's Good Faith Estimate framework. Geographic reach is concentrated in Georgia and the Southeast, supplemented by a domestic medical-tourism flow of out-of-state and international patients traveling to the Cumming office, with telehealth follow-up restricted to Georgia and North Carolina residents due to licensure. The practice is bootstrapped, entirely founder-owned, and has no disclosed external capital, M&A activity, or institutional investors.

Core offering

Aura Functional Neurology Center delivers intensive, in-person neurorehabilitation programs (5-day, 10-day, and 15-day all-inclusive blocks) that use applied clinical neuroscience and neuroplasticity principles to treat neurological conditions such as migraine, dysautonomia, POTS, concussion, TBI, Long COVID, neurodevelopmental disorders, and functional neurological disorder. Services are delivered one-on-one at the Cumming, Georgia clinic and combine functional neurology, functional nutrition, brain-based chiropractic adjustments, neuromodulation, red light therapy, vibration therapy, and BrainTap brainwave entrainment, supported by diagnostic assessments using CNS Vital Signs, Balance Tracking Systems, and the Neuro Sensorimotor Integrator (NSI).

Product overview

Aura Functional Neurology Center operates as a single-location functional neurology healthcare practice offering an integrated suite of neurological rehabilitation programs and therapeutic modalities. The core offering is its Intensive Neurorehabilitation Programs — personalized 5, 10, or 15-day brain training courses built on principles of functional neurology and neuroplasticity. These programs are augmented by specialized diagnostic technologies including CNS Vital Signs (neurocognitive assessment), Balance Tracking Systems (force-plate balance analysis), and the Neuro Sensorimotor Integrator (NSI, HD touchscreen sensorimotor evaluation). Therapeutic modalities include Functional Nutrition, Neuromodulation, Red Light Therapy (LED photobiomodulation), Vibration Therapy (whole-body vibration), BrainTap (light and sound brainwave entrainment), and Brain-Based Chiropractic Adjusting. The center treats eight primary condition categories: Migraine, Dysautonomia/POTS, Concussion/TBI, Long COVID, Neurodevelopmental Disorders, and Functional Neurological Disorder. The practice uses JaneApp for appointment scheduling and EHR management.

Direct peers

• Cognitive FX: Cognitive FX is a functional neurology/brain rehabilitation clinic in Provo, Utah, operating an intensive 1-week EPIC Treatment Program with similar goals of using neuroplasticity and multimodal stimulation (neuromodulation, cognitive therapy, sensorimotor exercises) to treat post-concussion, TBI, Long COVID, and other neurological conditions.
• Plasticity Brain Centers: Plasticity Brain Centers operates functional neurology clinics (with locations in FL/NC) offering intensive, multi-day neurorehabilitation programs for concussion, TBI, and neurodevelopmental conditions using neuroplasticity-based therapy, similar to Aura's model.
• APEX Brain Centers: APEX Brain Centers is a North Carolina-based functional neurology clinic providing intensive brain-based rehabilitation programs for concussion, headaches, neurodevelopmental disorders, and other neurological conditions, sharing the same functional neurology methodology and intensive patient model.
• Cerebrum Health Centers: Cerebrum Health Centers operates functional neurology clinics focused on intensive, non-invasive brain rehabilitation programs for concussion, TBI, cognitive decline, and neurological conditions using multimodal therapies including neurostimulation, similar to Aura FNC's intensive model.
• NeuroSolution: NeuroSolution is a functional neurology practice founded by Drs. Brandon Crawford and Kyle Daigle providing intensive brain-based rehabilitation using neuroplasticity principles; Dr. Barron at Aura FNC received mentorship under NeuroSolution co-founders, and the practices share the same DACNB-driven clinical philosophy.

Broad incumbents

• Brain Balance Achievement Centers: Brain Balance is a national franchise of centers delivering cognitive, motor, and sensory training programs primarily for children with ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities, overlapping with Aura's neurodevelopmental disorder segment but operating a much larger multi-site retail wellness model.

Others

• Carrick Institute: Carrick Institute is the leading educational institution that trains chiropractors and other clinicians in functional neurology, including Dr. Diana Tyler of Aura FNC. It is a key supplier of clinical talent to functional neurology practices rather than a direct competitor.

Regional players

• Mountain View Headache Center: A regional headache/migraine specialty practice operating in a different geography from Aura, providing pharmacological and procedural migraine management; relevant peer because migraine is Aura's primary condition focus, though it does not employ the functional neurology methodology.

Emerging players

• Sharp Again Naturally: Sharp Again Naturally is a treatment provider focused on cognitive and neurological symptom reversal using functional medicine approaches, partially overlapping with Aura's functional neurology and functional nutrition integration but without the intensive in-clinic model.
