Dr. Nathan Keiser / Carrick Institute / Carrick Brain Center 

Dr. Keiser was born and raised in Chelsea MI and is thrilled to bring his passion for functional neurology to the staff of Carrick Brain Centers in Atlanta GA. His work as a board certified functional neurologist has taken him to many places around the U.S. and Europe to learn, treat and consult for those in need. After operating thriving practices in the wonderful communities of Nashville, TN and Port St. Lucie, FL, Dr. Keiser is excited to bring that experience to greater Atlanta and the surrounding communities.

Dr. Keiser utilizes Gentle Chiropractic and Functional Neurology in the evaluation and treatment of his patients. Although trained in standard Neurology, which focuses more on the disease processes of the nervous system, Functional Neurologists are trained to look at how the human brain and nervous system works not only in each of its individual parts but as a complete functioning system. This training is critical because all of our bodily functions are governed by the human nervous system. The human nervous system is the master control unit of the entire body, if the brain is aging or deteriorating at a faster rate, it opens the door for nearly all health related problems to show up. This vital system of the brain and nerves is required to function at an optimal level in order for us to have optimal health.

Dr. Keiser’s passion is utilizing his training and experience in Neurology, to help people who have not found the answers to their health problems elsewhere. Many of these health problems do not always fall into a strict category of “neurological problems” but they have components to them that require neurological intervention. In addition, Dr. Keiser, utilizes these same skills to work with Doctors of Chiropractic, Medical Doctors and other Health Care practitioners in the treatment of their patients and their communities.
