Dr. Justin Dearing
DC, DACNB, FIAMA, FAARM — Functional Neurology & Chiropractic Expert
The co-founder of The Dearing Clinic, Dr. Justin Dearing is a functional neurologist and chiropractor with 12 years of experience in observational diagnosis and treatment. After realizing that adjusting the spine as a standalone therapy was not enough to fully correct chronic problems that kept showing up in chiropractic practices, he refined evidence-based therapies and diversified his clinical strategic approach to provide the best possible experience for his patients.
“I’ve dedicated my life’s work to finding solutions for patients with difficult-to-solve health conditions and know that the foundation of health and longevity is truly simple: Regaining your health requires rebuilding and maintaining whole brain and body resilience.”
He holds a doctorate in chiropractic, a diplomate in clinical neurology, fellowships in acupuncture and restorative herbal medicine. This diversified multi-disciplinary background allows him to apply the best unique patient-focused combination of manual musculoskeletal, neurological, regenerative, and metabolic therapies. With a background in clinical Neurology, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and chiropractic care, his approach is to diagnose the whole person first, thus treating individual issues more effectively and efficiently.

Where Gratitude Lives in the Brain: How Simple Practices Retrain Your Nervous System
Gratitude isn’t just a mindset—it’s a practice that rewires the brain and trains the nervous system to respond to stress with calm and clarity. By engaging the salience network and the insula, simple, consistent, sensory-based gratitude practices help the brain notice safety, strengthen emotional regulation, and support restorative sleep. Over time, these small practices shift the brain’s default settings, allowing for greater focus, connection, and well-being.
When Energy Stops Moving: Why Midlife Fatigue, Hormone Decline, and Brain Fog Are Problems of Flow, Not Failure
Midlife fatigue, brain fog, and hormone changes aren’t signs of failure - they’re signals that the rhythm between stress and recovery has been lost. Energy, metabolism, and mental clarity rely on flow: the movement of oxygen, nutrients, and waste through the body and brain. When stress isn’t paired with recovery, circulation slows, hormones respond less effectively, and the brain struggles to clear metabolic by-products. Sustainable energy comes not from pushing harder, but from restoring flow, contrast, and balance, allowing the body to adapt, recover, and thrive naturally.
