Institute of Neurological Recovery

In 2003, the INR® published the first of its many peer-reviewed scientific publications documenting the INR’s medical breakthroughs in the field of neuroinflammation. These breakthroughs include paradigm shifts involving the pathophysiology of Chronic Stroke, Brain Injury, Alzheimer’s Disease, Cerebral Palsy, and other related conditions. Numerous scientists and experts have cited the groundbreaking discoveries at the INR®. Published evidence from academic centers around the world now documents the existence of widespread, persistent neuroinflammation after stroke and brain injury. The rapid neurological improvements characteristically seen at the INR® support the concept that dormant circuits in the brain and other parts of the central nervous system are capable of being quickly re-activated after INR® treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Perispinal etanercept is a method of targeting detrimental neuroinflammation using etanercept, a special anti-inflammatory drug, delivered utilizing a novel, non-invasive injection method.

Perispinal etanercept is NOT experimental. Perispinal etanercept has been used to treat more than 5,000 chronic stroke patients since 2010 at the Institute of Neurological Recovery.

Perispinal etanercept is NOT a spinal injection. The small needle utilized is much too short to reach the spinal canal or the epidural space.

No, it is not too late. Neuroinflammation can last for years, or even decades, after brain injury. Life-changing neurological improvements following perispinal etanercept treatment performed weeks, months, years, or even decades after stroke or brain injury are not uncommon.

Referrals are not required. The Institute of Neurological Recovery has received, and welcomes, referrals from neurologists, speech pathologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, primary care physicians, online stroke groups, and, of course, patients and their family members.
