What is Palmer Upper Cervical Specific Chiropractic?
As Palmer Upper Cervical Specific Chiropractors, we recognize that “The Power That Makes The Body Heals The Body” - B.J. Palmer. While allopathic treatments focus on symptoms, sickness, and disease, we focus holistically on the primary cause of dis-ease in the body. The objective of Palmer Upper Cervical Chiropractic care is to remove interference from the brain stem so the innate intelligence of the body can restore balance and optimal health to the best of its ability.
Upper cervical chiropractors focus on the top two vertebrae of the spine called the Atlas (“C1” or a first cervical vertebra) and Axis (“C2” or second cervical vertebra). Often called “Houston Control,” the C1/C2 complex houses and protects the brain stem, the neurological bridge between the brain and the body. An upper cervical “subluxation” or misalignment causes nerve interference, instability, imbalance and/or dysfunction. Over time, this can cause a variety of secondary conditions including, but not limited to common disorders such as: migraines, vertigo, neuropathy, asthma, allergies, acid reflux, digestive problems, adrenal fatigue, infertility, behavioral disorders, sleep disturbances, hormonal imbalance, musculoskeletal pain, arthritis and other degenerative diseases. By specifically aligning Atlas and Axis, the rest of the spine is able to find proper alignment, relieving pressure from the brainstem, spinal cord, and nerves exiting the spine. The body is then able to return to homeostasis, where all systems work harmoniously together. As a result, the body is able to function as it was designed and heal itself.
THERMOGRAPHY
As an objective test to help determine if you need an upper cervical specific adjustment, we utilize Thermography on every visit. This technology assesses the autonomic nervous system and its relationship with skin temperature regulation and balance. Ideally, the body should receive the same amount of electrical impulses from the brain on both sides of the spinal column. An upper cervical subluxation or misalignment will disrupt the flow of electric impulses in the body and cause a temperature imbalance. Therefore, our highly sensitive thermography devices are most effective in detecting nerve impingement, inflammation and reactivity.
