What’s NUCCA?
The human body is a complex living organism. The nervous system is happy when nerve communication is clean and clear between the brain and the body. Sometimes, stress and injuries in the past may have caused structural changes in the spine that have adapted negatively. The upper neck is the most complex region of the body that requires very precise analysis and correction in order to restore health and nerve functions.
NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) has developed a very precise system of how to evaluate head and neck misalignment. NUCCA analysis allows us to correct misalignment with very little force without manipulating the neck. When the Atlas correction in the upper neck is achieved, it restores the entire spine to an unstressed, balanced position.
The NUCCA technique has been known to reduce atlas subluxation effectively and efficiently. It is one of the most gentle techniques that requires specific analysis and correction to result in positive outcomes. Every body part is connected, so a problem in a single region can cause another problem in other parts of the body.
