Are your headaches interfering with your daily life, work and/or family, or have they become more severe and frequent? Have you tried different medications without any success? If so, then it’s the right time for you to discuss this issue with a headache doctor or functional neurologist

What to Expect from a Visit to a Chiropractic Neurologist/Migraine Specialist?

The chiropractic neurologist/migraine specialist will perform a physical examination to get important clues that will help in finding a solution. With the information gained during the history, exam and any additional testing, the doctor will give you specific brain based exercises, nutritional recommendations, or lifestyle modifications to help reduce or even eliminate your migraines. Due to the complex nature of migraine, the treatments available for this condition are varied and differ from one individual to the next. There is currently no clear cure for migraine.

I came to Dr. Austin after experiencing dizziness for 3+ months. I had seen several specialists and nothing was working to make me feel better. After a month working with Dr. Austin, I am no longer dizzy. He is not only a great chiropractor, but an excellent neurologist, and a holistic practitioner. I could not recommend him enough!

I’m not even sure where to begin when I talk about Dr. Paul. His wealth of knowledge and ability to treat difficult problems that have plagued people for years is truly astounding. I have heard countless stories of lives changed through his work. I went to Paul (I’m using his first name because we so quickly became friends) because I wanted to see what all of the amazing tools in his office could do and to see if he could help me with eye-hand coordination. I came away with so much more! He also helped me with balance, timing, memory, and pain. And those are just the things I’m aware of; I’m sure he helped me with other things that only my body knows. Paul takes the time to thoroughly test and figure out where your body needs help and then he gets right to work teaching your body how to function at its best. His work can help with countless struggles and ailments from traumatic brain injury to ADD and everything in between. We are all different and have very different needs. To learn how Dr. Paul can help you, his beautiful website is one place to start. However, a phone call and/or consultation in his office will open you up to his brilliance and caring heart.

I first went to see Dr. Paul Austin about 10 years ago after trying my family MD to resolve very painful muscle spasms in my back without long-term success. They'd always come back intermittently. I was an admitted skeptic about chiropractors, but decided to try Dr. Austin on a friend's recommendation. The two words I can think of to describe my experience with treatment by Paul are "life changing". After following his prescribed exercises, along with his expert adjustments, I was pain free and have had no muscles spasms in my back for nearly 10 years. This summer I started having some pain in my neck and left arm. This time my family physician actually recommend that I try Dr. Austin again. After 5 treatments and some exercises, the pain is gone. No meds. No surgery. For me, the term "miracle worker" is not too strong in describing the value Dr. Austin has brought to improving my quality of life. Now I'm planning to stay on a regular tune-up regimen. I highly recommend Dr. Austin to anyone looking for pain relief, greater flexibility or other functional improvement, or any other aspect of improving how your body supports a better quality of life.

Dr. Austin is absolutely incredible. He is extremely knowledgeable and cares 1000% about his clients. I have struggled with dizziness daily since October 2019 and after going doctor to doctor with zero real answers, I found Dr. Austin, who diagnosed me on my very first visit! Within two visits he adjusted me based on my diagnosis and the issue at hand, as well as taught me treatments and exercises that have immensely helped with being dizzy 24/7. I feel about 80-90% better and back to normal every day now! Thank you so much, Dr. Austin! I cannot recommend you and your practice enough.

I've known Dr. Austin for almost 20 years and can attest to what a brilliant practitioner he is. He is kind, warm, smart and so dedicated to his patients. He is a highly gifted chiropractor with the added benefit of understanding SO much about how our brains work. Over the years I've consulted him around nutrition, energy levels, sleep problems while also receiving top notch adjustments. He's a vital part of my healthcare team.

Dr. Austin is my first phone call every time I have the opportunity to fly back home. I always feel ten times better walking out of his office then I did walking in. He has helped me with chronic neck, sinus, and herniated disc issues. I just wish he made house calls in different states! Thanks for keeping me functioning at my best, you're a life saver Dr. Austin!!

Dr. Austin and his entire staff are highly recommended! I was referred to Dr. Austin from a to chiropractor in Arizona... And I've been exceptionally happy! He has very deep knowledge, a heart to serve and cares about people, and he's great with explaining things and my back, neck, and brain health are all very happy compared to before I became a client.

Dr. Austin is one of the most brilliant, well-rounded health professionals I have ever met. He is able to analyze patients in a holistic way, which enables him to notice things most people miss. His breadth and depth of knowledge in neurology and chiropractic care allows him to analyse both physical problems as well as internal/mental ones. This skill set is invaluable to diagnosing patients accurately. I have suffered from a few chronic conditions, all of which he correctly diagnosed and corrected. Prior to seeing Dr. Austin I tried getting help from Western medicine specialists and they offered little to no support. If Dr. Austin wasn't able to fix the problem directly, he was able to recommend other specialists that got me back on track. He genuinely cares about his patients and wants to see them get better. If you're tired of dealing with chronic pain and no results, go see him so he can get you back on track.

I came to Dr. Austin after suffering with a chronic illness and brain injury for nearly 2 years. I was afraid to be hopeful because I had already tried many things to heal and was struggling to make further progress. Dr. Austin has several ways of objectively testing brain function and I was relieved to get confirmation of what I already new to be true - my brain function was impaired! The first month was challenging for me, but I was faithful to come to appointments and do my at-home exercises. It has now been 2 months and I have progressed so much in such a short time! I have gotten my ability to drive back, am able to go to the store alone, play much more with my daughter, and have been going more places than I have in a long time! To put it simply, I am starting to live again! I look forward to seeing the progress I continue to make. Dr. Austin’s number 1 priority is helping the patient feel better. He wants to know how you are feeling along the way and is careful to challenge you without overdoing it. He will truly listen and believe you when you tell him how you’re feeling and will modify exercises accordingly.

Dr. Austin is an extremely knowledgeable chiropractic neurologist. He has capabilities to help with a variety of problems, but he specializes in the brain. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is recovering from a concussion, brain fog, or dizziness! And I think all of his patients are most impressed, like I was, by his deep compassion and care.

Dr. Austin's practice has given me the hope of recovery after a difficult brain injury. I found Dr. Austin after seeing many specialists - neurologist, rheumatologist, endocrinologist - and receiving an uncertain diagnosis that left me without a recovery plan. He has brought a quantitative approach to measuring my brain function, for the first time describing my vision loss symptoms, balance issues, and other challenges in a way that makes me feel I'm being understood and, more importantly, gives me a path to recovery. Dr. Austin is uniquely knowledgeable, genuinely kind, and understands the importance of empathy and communication. We are so lucky to have him and his practice as a resource in our community.

We've been going to Dr. Austin for ~25 years. Dr. Austin is an intuitive and caring provider who listens to what we're asking for. Just and adjustment today? Fine. Something more wholistic? That's fine too. You'll be hard pressed to find a more skilled and compassionate provider in the Boulder County area.

Dr. Austin pretty much saved my life. I was very dizzy from the moment I woke up until the moment a went to sleep every day this year. The feeling would never go away. I had very low quality of life, could barely drive and was on the verge of losing my job because I could no longer perform my required basic daily tasks. I almost had to postpone my wedding and honeymoon. Kaiser was NO HELP!!! the doctors kept basically telling me "I don't know what's wrong with you" and sent me to specialist (and crazy high copays) after specialist. By the time they referred me to a neurologist, there was a four month wait period. I said enough is enough and began looking for outside help, that's where I found Dr. Austin and he immediately helped! He began treatment on my first visit using optikinetic excersises and graduating to chiropractic adjustments and recommended dietary changes and it has only got better since! I am practically free of my dizziness and my quality of life has returned! Even my fiancee has commented on how much happier I've been since beginning treatment. I could not recommend Dr. Austin enough, this is the best experience I have had with anyone in a medical field. He is attentive, patient, personable and very professional. If you are looking for a neurological chiropractor, trust me, you just found the right one.

Is there such a thing as a perfect person? Maybe not, but Dr. Austin sure does come close. Using "alternative" medicine can often be a confusing or scary experience for new people, which is what sets Dr. Austin apart from the rest. When a Doctor takes time to actually explain process and thoughts in detail it makes the experience so much more valuable. Dr. Austin is exceptional not necessarily for his knowledge (although it is vast) but rather for his values, demeanor, process, and approach to care. When was the last time your doctor greeted you with a genuine smile, by your first name, and made you fee like "how are you" wasn't a greeting, but an actual question? Probably not recently if ever. I have been a patient of Dr. Austin for over half my life, I am by nature not a very trusting person so the fact I allow anyone to touch me and actually MOVE my body speaks volumes, and I do it happily every week! He has seen me as a young athlete, a recovering athlete, and most recently the victim of a car crash requiring TBI (brain trauma) as well as physical recovery. He and his team have given my life a 180 through COMPLETE care. One visit with Dr. Austin and you will question everything you've ever been told about medicine. If there is something he can't do or someone knows better, the first thing he does is explain what he thinks is in your best interest, answers as many questions as you might have, and gets you to the person who can treat you the best. Nothing is ever rushed, nothing is every about money, nothing is ever about being "the best" with Dr. Austin, it is simply about being and being healthy. Come in for an adjustment, leave with a new life. The instant relief and continued physical work swiftly show you how his team can take care of your WHOLE body and life. Ask about the gut-brain connection and watch a human encyclopedia go to work! His technology and educational material rival that of a teaching institution. All of this is well and good, but what makes any trip to Dr. Austin worth it is the overwhelming genuine care about *who* you are as a person that is lacking in every other medical professional. You will never be ushered out the door, you will never be made to feel stupid for asking a question and you will never be given more than you need for sake of income. Heck, just have coffee with the guy, you'll be a better person for it!

No matter where I travel in the world, this is where I will come to have my spine cared for. I started here two years ago with horrible lower back pain and didn't have to come in for another adjustment for almost two years. Impressive holistic approach from this crew. Highly recommended!!

I started working with doctor Austin in 1998 after a very thorough recommendation by Gail Denton who wrote the book "Brainlash".( btw: If you or someone you know has a traumatic brain injury- buy that book). Through several car accidents and multiple athletic injuries and life stresses; Doctor Austin thoroughly worked with me to start connecting my right left brain hemispheres, get my nervous system calmed down or turned back on., get my b as lance back, my movement back while being honest and really funny. When I moved away I saw a few other chiroppractors with some very cutting edge technology and each time would have a severe headache or feel if somehow.. I'm not saying other chiropractors aren't good at all, though I am saying I trust doctor Austin more. After 26 years of seeing him as a chiropractor, I love this guy - he keeps and he really knows what hes doing with functional medicine and chiropractor care. I highly recommend him!

I have been a patient of Dr. Austin's for many years now, after years of searching for a good chiropractor, and he is hands-down the best! I have never had my neck cracked so perfectly and I feel amazing after every appointment. He uses a lot of functional neurology techniques that are pretty cool also and I appreciate how he explains things as he goes. Barbara at reception is wonderful too! There is also a nice waiting area with toys that my kiddo loves. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

I've been seeing doctor Paul for close to 25 year. He has helped me through my pregnancy, he has adjusted my 21 year old daughter since she was 2 days old. I suffer from lower back, shoulder, and migraine headaches. He has been able to provide relief and continued treatment for these issues. My 70 year old mother even visits him when she comes in the summer, I would suggest him to anyone who askeed.

Dr. Austin is my chiropractor of choice because of his vast knowledge in sports medicine, neurology, and nutrition to train the root cause of any issue I may have. It is not a blind treatment which is what I have seen in many other chiropractic offices. I am currently training for an IronMan and there isn’t anyone better that I would want on my team. It’s not only what Dr. Austin does for me in the office, but his advice and knowledge that keeps me balanced outside of the office as well. Thank you Dr. Austin.

I started going to Dr. Paul Austin for some neck discomfort and I received so much more. His knowledge of the workings of the nervous system, balance, brain function, etc. has helped me tremendously. He suggestion of simple exercises has helped with overall balance (something he calls brain function asymmetry/imbalance)- amazing the difference He makes in my overall wellness program. I would refer Dr. Austin to anyone!!! He is very personable and professional, also explains things in layman's terms for easy understanding. Thanks

Dr. Austin has been an incredible help to me in over coming chronic back pain. I have seen a lot of doctors over the years to deal with my back and he is the first one to figure out how to help me. Through his guidance I am relatively pain free, eating healthier, loosing 20 lbs and reducing the number of medications I was taking. He is a wealth of knowledge and is interested in helping you achieve a higher quality of life by getting to the root cause of your physical ailments. I highly recommend giving him a visit to discuss what is ailing you so that you can get on the path to a healthier life. Thank you Dr. Austin. Sincerely, Bruce immele

Dr Austin takes special care and pride in his role to heal people and guide them down a healthier path. If it wasn’t for Dr Austin‘s approach after my back had failed I probably would not have been able to walk today, and wouldn’t be as healthy or happy as I am.

I have never believed in chiropractors. My best friend, a long distance runner, swore by his. After an injury at home (wrenched my neck and back badly), I saw my primary care doctor. He said I may have shingles and my accident caused it to materialize. After a week of meds, the radiating pain around my chest continued. On my follow up visit, he actually recommended Austin Chiropractic Center. I told Dr Austin of my skepticism and my issue. He showed me a book that illustrated my pain exactly, showed me simple examples of how neurological stimulus effects strength and did an adjustment on me. I was shocked at how far I could turn my head backing out of my parking space when I left. After 3 adjustments, my neck and back pain were gone completely. Years later, I was rear-ended and had massive shoulder and neck issues. Dr Austin helped alleviate the pain and, over time, return the natural curve to my neck. His quiet, caring and thoughtful approach inspire confidence in his care. Dr Austin has always taken extra time to ask about my family, my eating habits and exercise to help evaluate my issues holistically. I will never see another chiropractor as I respect his approach and swear by his results.

I recently moved to Colorado and started seeing Dr Austin after a recommendation from my sister. So far, I am impressed with his approach to treatment, his bedside manner and his knowledge of the brain / body connection. Dr. Austin has a great combination of a friendly and professional nature - he very clearly enjoys his work and is passionate about the health of his clients. He's skilled in a variety of treatments / diagnostics, taking a holistic approach to wellness. Although I've only been seeing him for a short time, I would recommend him to anyone seeking a chiropractor, especially one trained in functional medicine. He asks questions, listens well and approaches each case individually to reach optimum patient wellness.

My daughter visited Dr Austin for about a year for assisting in balancing her right and left brain. She was having alot of anxiety and couldn't do simple tasks like jumping jacks (she was 8 years old). He also provided chiropractice wellness care and advice on home exercises. We truly appreciate the work Austin put in for us and her anxiety is gone and her left and right brain are now working more uniformly.

I have known Dr. Austin for over ten years. We met after I had a nasty roller blading accident. I was working 80+ hours/week at the time and was at a place in my life that I was unable to make any changes and really needed help just maintaining until I could. Dr. Austin helped me stay vertical and keep going until and after I was able to make some changes in my life that were more conducive in helping myself. I am grateful for all his knowledge, guidance and care he shared with me. As a healthcare professional, I know how important it is to let share our positive experiences with others. I would not hesitate to refer my patients to him since I go to Dr. Austin myself.
