Upper Cervical Care helps local woman that has been suffering with chronic neck pain, back pain, knee pain & extreme vertigo
I am an athlete, constantly working out and playing tennis with a bad left knee and a bad back,” says Nancy. Although annoyed, she continued to press on despite her bad back and left knee. However that all changed the moment Nancy began experiencing bouts of extreme vertigo. At that point a family member introduced her to Upper Cervical Care and after about 2 weeks of conversation, she decided to come in and see what the noise was all about. “I am a huge skeptic, but when the vertigo hit, I felt that I needed to do something.” On Nancy’s first visit to our office we were able to determine that the top bone (atlas) in her neck was misaligned, greatly contributing to the symptoms that she was experiencing. We took specific three dimensional upper cervical specific films to determine the nature of her unique misalignment and invited Nancy back for another appointment to discuss our findings. After showing her the exact measurements of her misalignment and explaining that our procedure required no twisting of her neck, she decided to receive her first Upper Cervical Adjustment.
Upper Cervical Care
Chiropractic is a philosophy, science and art as it pertains to healing and nerve system function. Upper Cervical Chiropractors focus on the intimate relationship between the first two bones in the neck and a vital portion of the nerve system called the brain-stem. The interrelationship between these structures is absolutely essential to the body’s ability to promote and restore health. Science tells us that the brainstem acts as a switchboard operator between the brain and body, relaying nerve signals to every cell, tissue and organ system via the spinal cord and nerves. A misalignment here will disrupt brain to body communication and if not corrected lead to the loss of body function and healing potential! Upper Cervical misalignments are caused by stress to the body, which includes but is not limited to car accidents, falls, sports, poor posture, excessive emotional or chemical stress, or even birth traumas. Upper Cervical Chiropractors take great care in determining where a misalignment is in the spine and then corrects the misalignment with a precise adjustment. This serves to remove nerve system interference and allows the body to return to a state of health.
Relief from a Simple Concept
For Nancy, she began to experience relief almost immediately, however this was not because we were treating her Vertigo or any of her other symptoms. She began experiencing relief because her head was now on straight and her body was beginning to function better. “I instantly felt better, my left knee pain was gone, my vertigo was gone and my neck problems had been eased. For all the skeptics out there give it a shot. I never thought that I would be doing this but here I am and I feel great.” Everything that happens in our body, from heart rate to the immune system, is dependent on how well our nerve system is functioning. The nerve system, comprised of the brain, brain-stem, spinal cord, and nerves is collectively coined the master control network in the body. It is directly responsible for how well our bodies function, adapt to its environment and heal. This makes the nerve system or master control network the foundational component to achieving true health.
“The wisdom of the body is responsible for 90% of the hope of patients to recover. The body has a super wisdom that is in favor of life, rather than death. This is the power that we depend on for life. All doctors are responsible for letting their patients know of this great force working within them.”
