Back-N-Balance

As we go through life, we experience accidents and traumas that cause our heads to be knocked off the vertical axis which causes the rest of our spine to shift and buckle under the weight of our head.  This causes irregular changes in the posture and musculature of the body and then eventually degenerative changes in the overall body structure and bone results.  My job as a NUCCA Chiropractor is to put your head on straight, literally, to help relieve the abnormal stress that is being put on the rest of your body.    The NUCCA Chiropractic technique is an upper cervical specific tecnique that takes x-rays of the head and neck, mainly of the top vertabra in the spine, which is known as the Atlas.  The Atlas is at the same level as the brainstem, if this bone is not in the correct position, messages aren't going to travel properly from the brain to the rest of the body, or from the body back up to the brain.  This phenomenon is known as nerve interference and it can show up in many different ways throughout our bodies.  Some conditions that can be helped by this type of Chiropractic care are: AllergiesArm PainAsthmaAthletic InjuriesAttention DeficitDisorderBack PainBed WettingCarpal Tunnel SyndromeCerebral PalsyChild DevelopmentalProblemsChronic Fatigue Chronic InfectionsChronic PainConstipationDepressionDiabetesDigestive ProblemsDizzinessDyslexiaDystoniaEar InfectionsEpileptic SeizuresEye InfectionsFemale DisordersFeverFibromyalgiaFlu SymptomsFrequent ColdsHay FeverHeadachesHeart ConditionsHerniated DisksHigh Blood PressureHip PainHyperactivityImmune System Deficiency IndigestionInfertilityKnee ProblemsLearning DisabilityLeg PainLoss of SleepLow Back PainMigraine HeadachesMultiple SclerosisMuscle SpasmsNeck PainNervousnessNeuralgiaNeuritisNeuropathyNumbness & Tingling in LimbsOrgan DysfunctionParkinson's DiseasePoor VisionPost-polioProblems from car/ sports/slip/fall accidentsRheumatoid ArthritisScoliosisShoulder PainSinus ProblemsSleeping DisordersSpasmodic DisordersStiffnessTendonitisTight MusclesT.M.J.

When this gentle adjustment is made, body imbalance will be restored.  Stress, tension and pressure is relieved at the level of the brainstem and messages are able to be reactivated to the affected part of the body, thus the healing process can begin.
