It is is a rapidly growing form of healthcare that focuses on the intimate relationship between the first two bones in the neck (upper cervical spine), and a vital portion of the nervous system (the brain stem). This relationship is essential to the body's ability to preserve and restore health and general well-being. Many comparisons have been made of the brain stem as the control center that extends down an opening in the base of your skull. This area is vulnerable to injuries or irritation around the upper neck. The brain stem works like a telephone cable with thousands of individual wires (nerve fibers) sending signals back and forth between the brain and spinal cord to every system, organ, and cell in the body. Every nerve impulse between the brain and the body must pass through the brain stem. The nervous system is responsible for all communication within the body. It controls the immune system, emotions, vision, hearing, balance, breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, muscle tension, posture, hormones, and every other function. Irritation or pressure within the central nervous system can interrupt communication between the body and brain, creating a variety of health issues that can be helped with a chiropractor.

Don't live with seizures for years!

Ever considered:�“What’s happening in my nervous system?”

✨ After identifying and correcting a misalignment at the top of the neck, the brainstem can function correctly… and the episodes become less frequent.

You never know what’s possible until you look at the root cause.�

⚡ Most people think seizures are only a brain problem 🫨

They’re not ❎

Right at the top of your neck sits your brainstem — the control center that regulates electrical activity, movement, and balance in your nervous system.

When the atlas (C1) shifts out of alignment, it irritates the brainstem.

That irritation creates neurological chaos… and for some people, it shows up as seizures 😵‍💫

Here’s what makes this different 👇�
Upper Cervical Chiropractors use advanced imaging to see the misalignment and make precise, gentle corrections — no twisting, no cracking!

By taking pressure off the brainstem, the nervous system calms, and the body stabilizes

✨ If you’ve been living with seizures, tried everything, and nothing has worked — this could be the missing piece 🧩

The brainstem is the filter and control center for your nervous system.

When the C1 vertebra misaligns, it can irritate the brainstem and disrupt how your body interprets and responds to signals—sometimes resulting in neurological symptoms like seizures.

✨ This is why we always check the top of the spine in people with unexplained or hard-to-manage seizure activity.

If you or someone you love experiences seizures—and you feel like you’ve tried everything—it may be time to look at the nervous system itself.

Your brainstem plays a central role in regulating sensory input and neurological balance 😵‍💫

When the top bone in your neck (C1) misaligns, it can interfere with this system—creating the potential for overstimulation, inflammation, and disrupted brain-to-body communication.

✨ Upper Cervical Chiropractic focuses on reducing irritation to the brainstem—helping the body stabilize from the inside out.�👉 www.uccnearme.com�or locally at www.ucsiouxfalls.com

Pulsatile tinnitus is often a vascular symptom, not a hearing problem.

The brainstem, housed right above the top bone in your neck (C1), controls blood pressure, rhythm, and vessel tone.

🧠 Misalignments in this area can create tension, pressure, and flow disturbances—leading to that pulsing, thumping sound in your ear.

✨ Restoring alignment at the top can help restore calm in the system.�

That rhythmic sound in your ear that pulses with your heartbeat?�👂🏻

It’s called pulsatile tinnitus—and it might not be coming from your ear at all.

🧠 The upper cervical spine plays a key role in regulating blood flow to and from the brain. When misalignments occur, they can distort vascular rhythms and increase pressure in the head—leading to symptoms like thumping, whooshing, or heartbeat sounds in one or both ears.

✨ Upper Cervical Chiropractic can help restore balance to this system
