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 ext

ends 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.

Widespread pain.�
Fatigue.�
Brain fog.�
Normal labs.

Fibromyalgia is often described as central sensitization — a nervous system stuck in overdrive.

Many patients try:�
✔️ Medications�
✔️ Supplements�
✔️ Therapy�
✔️ Lifestyle changes

But if irritation exists near the brainstem — located at the top of your neck — regulation may remain disrupted.

✨ Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care focuses on correcting misalignment in this area gently and precisely, helping support nervous system balance.

Does the room spin when you roll over in bed?

BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo) causes sudden spinning with position changes.

Many patients try:�
✔️ Epley maneuvers�
✔️ ENT visits�
✔️ Medication�
✔️ Vestibular therapy
And while symptoms may improve temporarily, they often return.

Balance is integrated at the brainstem — located at the top of your neck.
When the upper cervical spine is misaligned, it can create neurological irritation that interferes with balance signaling.

✨ Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care focuses on correcting this area gently and precisely.

Do your headaches begin at the base of your skull and move forward?

Cervicogenic headaches are caused by irritation in the upper neck — not the head itself.

Many patients try:�
✔️ Migraine medications�
✔️ Massage therapy�
✔️ Stretching�
✔️ Changing pillows

But if the upper cervical spine is misaligned, irritation near the brainstem can refer pain upward into the head.

✨ Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care focuses on correcting this misalignment gently and precisely — helping reduce irritation at the source.
