Not all Chiropractic Care is the same.

Blair Chiropractic is a Specialised Upper Cervical Technique that focuses on precise, gentle adjustments tailored to your unique spinal structure.

Unlike traditional Chiropractic methods, which often involve forceful manipulations across the entire spine, Blair Chiropractic prioritises individualised imaging in the first visit, to detect misalignments in the Upper Cervical spine and correct them with minimal pressure.

Key Differences

➕Blair Chiropractic: Uses detailed imaging to customise adjustments, focusing on the Upper Cervical spine for long-term relief.

➕Regular Chiropractic: Often involves full-spine adjustments with more generalised techniques.

If you’re looking for a gentle, targeted approach to spinal health, Blair Chiropractic might be the results you're looking for.

The Vagus nerve plays a crucial role in your body, serving as a key communicator between your brain and every vital organ, including:

Heart + Lungs + Digestive System + Reproductive System + All glands (e.g., Thyroid, Adrenals, etc.)

When facing health issues, we often concentrate on the areas where we feel symptoms. For instance, if we have digestive concerns, we may think we need to adjust our diet or consult a gastroenterologist. While it's essential to rule out any serious conditions and recognise that diet is a significant factor, another critical aspect that can impact our body's functionality is a misalignment at the base of our neck. The C1 vertebra, also known as the atlas, is responsible for supporting the weight of your head. It is unique in your spine as it lacks a disc that secures it in place, making it the proverbial weak link in the chain.

This means that even without visible injuries like broken bones, bleeding, or bruising, a physical impact can lead to misalignment of this particular vertebra. Even a slight misalignment of just 2mm, though it may seem minor, can result in the atlas becoming locked in an abnormal position, which can disrupt the function of your Vagus nerve and impact your overall health. How does this happen?

The Vagus nerve originates at the base of your brainstem right at the level of the C1 vertebra, then extends down to all your vital organs, passing along the front of the cervical vertebrae. This is crucial to understand because many common activities - such as sitting, standing, sleeping, texting, typing, reading, and writing, often cause our heads to lean forward. This forward tilt can compress the atlas against the vagus nerve. One can compare this situation to having a small pebble in one's shoe: although the pebble is minor in size, its persistent friction against the foot can lead to considerable discomfort over time.

The relationship between your atlas and Vagus nerve follows the same principle.

Upper Cervical Clinic -
One of only 3 Australia Wide.

Inflammation is good when it’s happening to help the body heal. But chronic inflammation can cause pain instead of helping to eliminate it. There are many different causes of chronic inflammation, including diet, bone misalignment, arthritis, stress, lack of sleep, and obesity.

Different chiropractic modalities can deal with all of these underlying causes in different ways, helping reduce chronic inflammation & the pain that comes with it.

One of the things that makes a Blair Upper Cervical doctor different from other forms of healthcare & even other forms of chiropractic is the use of customised x-ray images that show the exact direction and degree of any misalignments in your neck.

Unlike a standard x-ray, CT, or MRI scan, which only show things in two dimensions, the architecture of your spine is three dimensional.

Atlas Health Australia is the premier clinic for Blair Upper Cervical chiropractic care in Australia. Conveniently located halfway between the Brisbane CBD & the Sunshine Coast.

Book online or call us today to make your appointment. Our Dr is committed to your long term health + wellness.

If you look at the anatomy of the neck and head, it is no wonder that the top bone of the spine, the atlas, can have an effect on the proper function of the ears.

✖️Combating Cluster Headaches

✖️Headaches are one of the most common symptoms of a misalignment in your spine.

The C1 or C2 vertebrae are where many headaches start, which can be caused by an inefficiently aligned back region that puts pressure on parts of our brain responsible for controlling movement and emotion.

Misaligned spines not only cause chronic pain but also affect how we think creatively, forgetting new things easily while retaining old ones.

Do you suffer from cluster headaches? If so, you know that they can be extremely painful and debilitating.
