Atlas Orthogonal
We use a chiropractic approach that focuses on the upper most bone of your spine called the atlas. Distortions in spinal function show up here.
The Analysis
We rely on pictures of your spine to calculate the precise relationships between your skull and spine. The side view reveals how much of the normal curve has been lost or exaggerated. The nasium view, taken with your mouth open, shows the alignment between the head and neck. The vertex view is a “bird’s eye” view which shows the position of the atlas relative to your skull. Together, these views are used to calculate the precise angle of our adjusting instrument.
The Instrument
Our instrument delivers a precise chiropractic adjustment. The stylus does NOT push on the surface of the skin to deliver the force needed to correct the misaligned bone. It will barely touches your skin! Instead, it delivers an amazingly gentle pressure wave! This almost imperceptible vibrational energy is transferred to your atlas, delivering the pressure needed to precisely move the bone.
Pleasing Results
After the adjustment, some people report a pleasant warm feeling or a sense of well being. In some cases, within minutes, there is complete relief of symptoms. Usually it requires repeated visits to retrain supporting muscles and create a healthier relationship between your skull and spine. The number of visits needed of course depends on each patients individual needs. As nerve interference is reduced, your body’s natural healing ability is invoked.
