IUCCA Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care Scientific, Objective, Precise |
An Upper Cervical Specific chiropractor focuses on the improvement of total body function rather than the treatment of symptoms. To achieve this, normal nervous system function needs to be restored. This is important because your nervous system has direct control over every organ, tissue, and cell of your body. The upper cervical part of your spine are the top two vertebrae directly under the skull. This is the area that connects the brain (control center) and the body. Encased within these vertebrae and the skull is the central nervous system. Damage or irritation to the central nervous system at this critical junction can interfere with the communication between the brain and the body resulting in numerous health problems. "Locked" upper cervical vertebrae cause brainstem irritation. Upper Cervical Specific care aims to eliminate this source of brainstem irritation, thus returning proper communication between the brain and the body. This is done by "unlocking" the malpositioned upper cervical vertebrae. Without irritation, the nervous system can properly control your body's functions and maintain good health. |
