The care described on Dr. Arbeitman's web site is performed in accordance with the guidelines of the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA). Currently, very few NUCCA and Advanced Orthogonal upper cervical specialists exist in the USA or worldwide. Therefore, many patients (from other states and/or countries) choose to travel to the closest NUCCA and Advanced Orthogonal practitioner.

Dr. Arbeitman sympathizes with each individual's struggle to attain quality upper cervical care since it is not readily available. However, please be advised that because the NUCCA and Advanced Orthogonal procedure is extensive, it is impossible for Dr. Arbeitman to advise an individual's local chiropractor on how to perform the procedure and/or any of the diagnostics involved.

Each individual`s care plan is specifically designed for his or her case and is determined at the initial evaluation appointment. Pediatric cases typically require less care than adults.

As a goal and a guide, patients who travel for care should make arrangements to be seen multiple times over 2 to 3 months so that once the initial correction is made, stability can be achieved. For the best results, the above parameters should be planned for.
