Neurologic Wellness Institute

What Neurologic Wellness Institute does

Neurologic Wellness Institute (NWI) is a privately held functional neurology clinic network founded circa 1986 and headquartered in Wood Dale, Illinois, operating four clinical sites across Boca Raton FL, Chicago IL, Waukesha WI, and Wood Dale IL. The company diagnoses and treats complex neurological conditions — including concussion, traumatic brain injury, post-acute COVID-19 symptoms, dysautonomia, POTS, ADHD, Parkinson's disease, headaches, dizziness, and functional neurological disorder — through its proprietary NeuroRecovery Program, a three-pillar protocol comprising advanced diagnostics (QEEG brain mapping, neurocognitive evaluation, eye tracking), personalized multi-modality rehabilitation, and at-home ongoing performance programs. The clinical technology stack integrates more than fifteen modalities, including neurofeedback, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, vestibular rehabilitation, Gyrostim, vagus nerve stimulation, transcranial neuromodulation, PEMF, red light/laser therapy, molecular hydrogen therapy, Normatec compression, and Interactive Metronome training.

NWI operates a hybrid revenue model with two streams: (1) clinical patient treatment services delivered in person at its four clinic locations on a professional-services basis, with treatment protocols personalized per patient and pricing not publicly disclosed; and (2) global doctor education and training programs teaching functional neurology care to practitioners worldwide, which simultaneously functions as a referral and brand-propagation channel. The go-to-market motion is sales-led, combining direct-to-consumer patient acquisition (podcast, blog, SEO, social media, video testimonials, Google reviews) with consultative clinical evaluation and personalized care planning for complex cases. Patient segments are diversified across professional athletes, military veterans, long COVID patients, children with POTS, and individuals with chronic neurological conditions unresponsive to conventional medicine.

The company is owned by Illinois Neuro & Physical Rehabilitation, LTD., a private Illinois entity with no disclosed external investors, suggesting physician/management ownership and organic growth funded through operations. The clinical team includes diplomate and fellowship-certified functional neurology practitioners, with doctors holding positions on the Functional Neurology Accreditation Board. The leadership team referenced in source data includes Dr. Frederick R. Carrick (DC, PhD), cited as founder and pioneer of functional neurology, and Dr. David Traster, a practicing clinician who hosts The Neurologic Wellness Podcast.

Direct peers

• Carrick Brain Centers: Functional neurology clinic network founded in association with Dr. Frederick Carrick, the same pioneer of functional neurology affiliated with NWI. Offers nearly identical multi-modal brain-based rehabilitation and concussion treatment, serving the same patient segments in a competing geographic footprint.
• Plasticity Brain Centers: Functional neurology clinic specializing in multi-modal brain rehabilitation for concussion, TBI, and neurodevelopmental conditions. Operates in a similar cash-pay, personalized-treatment model targeting patients who have not responded to conventional care, directly overlapping NWI's core offering.
• CognitiveFX: Specialty outpatient clinic focused on post-concussion syndrome treatment using multi-modal diagnostics and therapy. Targets the same athletes, veterans, and chronic-concussion patients as NWI with an intensive, protocol-driven rehabilitation model.
• APEX Brain Centers: Functional neurology and brain training centers offering intensive rehabilitation for concussion, ADHD, and neurological conditions. Closely comparable to NWI in modality mix (neurofeedback, vestibular rehab, neuromodulation) and patient demographic.
• The Functional Neurology Center: Independent functional neurology practice delivering brain-based diagnosis and rehabilitation for concussion, vertigo, dysautonomia, and chronic neurological conditions. Closely aligned with NWI's clinical methodology, modality mix, and direct-to-patient cash-pay model.
• Cerebrum Health Centers: Functional neurology clinic network delivering brain-based rehabilitation for concussion, TBI, and neurodegenerative conditions. Operates with a similar cash-pay, multi-modal approach and overlapping patient segments (athletes, post-concussion, dysautonomia).

Broad incumbents

• Brooks Rehabilitation: Large not-for-profit rehabilitation system with a dedicated neuro recovery program spanning inpatient, outpatient, and home health. Provides competition across Florida (overlapping with NWI's Boca Raton clinic) for stroke, TBI, and complex neurological rehab patients.
• Burke Rehabilitation Hospital: Established neurorehabilitation hospital offering inpatient and outpatient programs for stroke, TBI, and neurological conditions. Competes with NWI in the Northeast corridor for complex outpatient neurological cases using more traditional, insurance-based protocols.
• Shirley Ryan AbilityLab: Major U.S. academic neurorehabilitation hospital offering inpatient and outpatient brain injury, stroke, and neurological recovery programs. Far larger scale and academic-backed, but competes for the same complex neurological patient population, particularly TBI and stroke cases NWI treats.
• Athletico Physical Therapy: Large national outpatient physical therapy chain with vestibular rehabilitation, concussion management, and neuro-rehabilitation programs. Lower-intensity, insurance-based alternative for patients who might otherwise seek NWI's intensive multi-modal protocols.
