UPPER CERVICAL CARE in Traverse City

Chiropractic Traverse City MI Sheena Teaching Patient

Upper Cervical Care is a practice within the field of chiropractic. Our Traverse City chiropractors, has had extensive training in this unique and results-driven technique. If traditional chiropractic techniques have not worked for you in the past, stop in and see what the buzz is all about!


WHY DO WE USE THIS TECHNIQUE?

Upper Cervical is the most researched technique in the history of chiropractic. The upper cervical area is of critical importance because this is where the brain stem sits inside the spinal column. The brain stem controls all automatic functions of the body including respiration, digestion, cardiovascular function, and the muscles.

If a misalignment, or subluxation, is present in the upper cervical area we can have a decrease of function in a number of body systems. The upper cervical subluxation can also lead to compensations and even pain in other areas of the spine. This includes issues such as scoliosis, low back pain, neck pain, headaches, and trouble sleeping.

WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE?

This technique allows us to be extremely precise and adjust you using the least amount of force possible. This painless adjustment enables us to refrain from doing any cracking or popping of the neck or back.

As your upper cervical chiropractic doctor, our goal is to have to adjust you as least as possible. This is because true healing occurs when you maintain your adjustment and alignment. We call this “living clear”, and we invite you to experience it!
