Upper cervical chiropractic care is a specialized form of chiropractic treatment that focuses on the alignment and adjustment of the upper cervical spine, particularly the first two vertebrae in the neck, known as the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae.
The upper cervical region is considered to be the most crucial area of the spine due to its protection to the brainstem, which plays a vital role in transmitting nerve signals between the brain and the rest of the body.
Upper cervical chiropractors believe that misalignments or subluxations in the atlas and axis vertebrae can have far-reaching effects on overall health and well-being.
These misalignments interfere with the proper functioning of the nervous system, leading to a variety of health issues.
The goal of upper cervical chiropractic care is to identify and correct these misalignments through precise and gentle adjustments. These adjustments are very specific and involve using imaging techniques such as X-rays and other advanced diagnostic methods to determine the exact nature of the subluxation or "bone out of place".
