Nerves are responsible for four primary functions:

• Control and regulate all vital functions including circulation, breathing, immunity and digestion.



• Activate muscles allowing us to move.



• Allow us to sense, perceive and feel…this is our life experiences.



• Relate to the world outside ourselves including learning, emotions, experiencing and behavior.

Implications on Your Health

The nerves in the spinal column are very sensitive to pressure and stress. When the spine becomes misaligned sufficiently, it stresses the nerves which compromises the transmission of information between the brain and the body. Ultimately, nerve pressure will alter function throughout the entire body.

Precise, Accurate Spinal Adjustments

NUCCA and Advanced Othogonal spinal correction depends upon precise mathematical calculations, physics and biomechanics. Laser aligned X-rays are a critical part of ensuring your spinal correction is accurate and successful. Every effort is made to keep x-ray exposure to a minimum, including the use of state-of-the-art High Frequency x-ray and various lead filters. The doctor will take both pre- and post-correction x-rays from three different angles focusing on the skull, atlas and spine. These x-rays determine the direction and degree of spinal misalignment. Using them, the doctor determines how to properly balance your spine. The initial spinal pictures help the doctor determine precisely how to make the proper correction. The post-correction pictures verify that he has indeed made the proper correction.

Computerized Neurological Testing

The Insight Millennium Subluxation Station is a non-invasive, painless combination of neurological tests called Thermography and Surface Electromyography. Both tests utilize surface sensors that measure nerve function. By measuring nerve function of the spinal nerves, we can assess where spinal problems are occurring and how severe the problems are. Not only is this test extremely helpful in determining where problems exist and how severe they are, but is also helpful in determining progress as a patient is undergoing care.
