What Does a Chiropractic Adjustment Look Like at Atlas Disc + Spine Clinic ?

At ATLAS, our adjustments focus on optimizing the connection between your spine and nervous system. Here’s how we approach your care:

Atlas Orthogonal Correction: By addressing misalignments in the upper cervical spine (C1), we help restore proper balance and enhance the flow of messages between your brain and body.

Cox Flexion/ Distraction Technic: Help to restore alignment to the spine, helping to move vertebrae back into place, increase the disc height between vertebrae, and reduce pressure on the spinal column.

Activator Technique: A precise and gentle method that uses advanced tools to realign your spine, improving function and communication within your nervous system.

Muscle Relaxation Therapy: Using a percussion instrument, we release muscle tension to reduce stress on your spine and nervous system, supporting your body’s ability to heal.

Soft Tissue Mobilization: Using Graston technique we target tight or strained muscles to improve movement, alleviate discomfort, and promote overall recovery.

Our neurologically based care is designed to help you heal, restore balance, and feel your best.

Experience the ATLAS difference.

“Excellent care and service. I was down in my back and could barely walk, I called right at closing time and spoke to the doctor. I told him what was going on and he got me in the next morning and after two treatments he had me up and going. The only Chiropractor I will use. Highly recommend. Thank you for taking care of me.”

Atlas Disc + Spine Clinic in Anchorage, Alaska provides a variety of all-natural healing therapies that help relieve pain and restore mobility for our patients. They frequently come to us looking for relief after a sports injury, workplace injury or some type of auto injury accident. Most people did not know that we offer chiropractic care to local veterans through the VA- Community Program in Anchorage area. The program allows veterans enrolled in VA health benefits to receive VA-approved health care from non-VA doctors without affecting access to VA healthcare and other VA benefits.

Here at Atlas Disc +Spine Clinic we understand that military service can cause many types of life-altering injuries that lead to neck pain, lower back pain, stiffness and decreased mobility. Some service-related injuries may be the result of handling or carrying heavy equipment for extended periods of time. Others may be due to repetitive motion injuries that cause stress on your spinal column and joints. You may be suffering from sciatica caused by a bulging or herniated disc or you could be in need of rehabilitative care to help you recover from a combat injury. We can help ease your transition back into civilian life through a course of treatment designed to relieve pain, reduce inflammation and restore your mobility.

Fall is an amazing season in Alaska. We absolutely love the changing colors from green to yellow & gold, it makes this time of year almost like an artist that didn't like the colors in his painting so he painted over them with different colors, changing the scene drastically.

I have been using Doctors of Chiropractic since 1980 when MD’s basically wrote me off after a back injury. Over the years I’ve been to DC’s who were average, excellent and deplorable. I’m writing a review such as I wish I could find when I’m trying to locate a Doctor of Chiropractic. This man provides excellent care and knows exactly what your body needs. How do I know? Approximately 12 years ago a deplorable “chiropractor “ gave me the worst adjustment of my life and sprained every joint in my spine. Since then I’ve searched high and low for a DC who could cure the problems she caused me. Most DC’s I’ve visited in between just chased symptoms, and I remained in constant muscle spasm and pain. Then about a year ago I happened across Dr. Ortiz’s information and immediately set up a visit. I’ve now had somewhere around 12-15 visits, and he is the only DC to adjust my atlas in 12 years. Once he got it moving, the rest of my joints are falling into place. I cannot describe the satisfaction and utter joy I’m experiencing by feeling like myself again. I know this man will have me completely healed up in no time, and I thank God for directing me to him. I hope my experience helps guide you to good health.~ James W.

“ From the beginning of my first visit and onward, Dr. Ortiz has been a caring, effective and professional in his ability to treat my various issues: vertigo/imbalance/light-headedness/dizziness (pretty much resolved after approx 2 months), chronic shoulder pain and mobility is steadily resolving that wouldn't respond to any others' attempts, and helping with my upper neck stenosis. Who knew that the atlas bone plays such an integral part to truly help heal and allow the spine to do its job when in a healthier state. All at the hands And heart of someone who truly cares what he's doing for you. Huge thanks to Dr. Ortiz.
