Send us FAN MAIL text, include your cell# for a reply Beyond MRI: Dr. Bagnell's Approach to Unseen Brain Imbalances Host Mike Roth opens Season 8 of Villages Vitality: Senior Life Unscripted with Dr. Michael K. Bagnell of Bagnell Brain Center, who treats patients with dizziness, concussion symptoms, brain fog, dysautonomia, and cognitive changes despite “normal” MRI/CT results. Bagnell explains dysautonomia as age-related weakening of autonomic brainstem control affecting heart rate, blood pressure, swallowing, and other functions, and emphasizes that brain function can be strengthened to improve balance, cognition, and quality of life. He describes noninvasive diagnostics focused on function, including precise eye-movement tracking with specialized goggles, vestibular testing using a rotary chair, and EEG brain mapping to assess brainwave power and connectivity. He outlines individualized, largely nonpharmaceutical neurorehabilitation (including targeted exercises and stimulation options), discusses typical program length, self-pay costs, and highlights sleep as foundational for brain health. He shares how to learn more via the Bagnell Brain Center website and social channels. 00:00 Season 8 Welcome 00:43 Meet Dr Bagnell 01:33 What Is Dysautonomia 03:16 Strengthening The Brain 04:27 When Scans Look Normal 06:14 Eye Tracking And Vestibular 09:18 Brain Mapping EEG 11:26 Vertigo Success Stories 13:31 Alzheimers Diet Tip 14:32 Slow Medicine Approach 17:52 Neuro Rehab Treatments 19:33 Costs And Coverage 20:07 Chiropractic And Brain Links 22:25 Two Week Intensive Program 25:35 Sleep As Foundation 27:21 Contact And Closing Villages Vitality Listeners, I've got some good news for you.
