NUCCA Chiropractic Care:
A Gentle, Non-Invasive Approach To Health and Well-Being!

Are you tired of living with pain and discomfort? Ar you looking for a safe and effective way to improve your health and well-being that doesn't include the cracking, popping, or twisting associated with traditional chiropractic? If so, NUCCA chiropractic care may be just what you need!

At Franz Spinal Care & Nutrition, Dr. Benjamin Franz specializes in a gentle, non-invasive adjustments to the atlas and axis bones in your neck. These vertebrae are important because they are responsible for protecting the brainstem, allowing for proper communication between the brain and the rest of the body, support the weight of the head, and allow for the proper movement and alignment of the spine.  

NUCCA chiropractic is a specialized form of chiropractic care that focuses on restoring the proper alignment of the atlas and axis bones in the upper cervical spine. The NUCCA chiropractic technique is based on the principles of physics and biomechanics.

NUCCA chiropractors use a variety of diagnostic tools to assess the alignment of the atlas and axis bones, including CBCT (cone beam computerized tomography, if you are interested about learning more about CBCT Click Here) and postural analysis. 

When these vertebrae are misaligned, it can cause a variety of symptoms throughout the body, including neck pain, headaches, shoulder pain, and even lower back pain. Once the misalignment is identified, the NUCCA chiropractor will use a gentle and precise adjustment to correct it without any twisting or cracking of the neck.

The goal of NUCCA chiropractic care is to restore the proper alignment of these bones, which can help to improve overall health and well-being.  By correcting the alignment of the atlas and axis vertebrae, NUCCA adjustments can help to restore balance to the entire spine.  By restoring proper alignment to these critical bones, we can help improve the communication between your brain and your body, which can promote healing, reduce pain and discomfort, improve range of motion, restore proper function to the body, and improve your overall health and well-being.

Some of the Many Benefits of NUCCA Chiropractic Care:

  1. Improved Spinal Alignment and Posture: When your spine is properly aligned, it can help relieve pressure on your nerves and improve your overall posture. This can help reduce pain and discomfort, and improve your mobility and flexibility.

  2. Improving Spinal Curvature: The curvature of the spine plays an important role in maintaining proper posture and balance. Misalignments in the upper cervical spine can cause the rest of the spine to compensate and become misaligned as well. By correcting the alignment of the atlas and axis vertebrae, upper cervical chiropractic adjustments can help to restore the natural curvature of the spine.

  3. Reduced Pain and Discomfort: NUCCA chiropractic care can help relieve pain and discomfort associated with a wide range of conditions, including headaches, migraines, back pain, neck pain, sciatica, and more.

  4. Restoring Proper Nerve Function: Misaligned vertebrae can put pressure on the nerves that run through the spine, which can interfere with the body's ability to communicate and function properly. By realigning the atlas and axis vertebrae, upper cervical chiropractic adjustments can help to relieve this pressure and restore proper nerve function throughout the spine.

  5. Improved Range of Motion and Flexibility: When your spine is properly aligned, it can help improve your range of motion and flexibility, which can make it easier for you to move and perform daily activities.

  6. Improved Sleep Quality and Reduced Stress and Anxiety: NUCCA chiropractic care can help reduce stress on your nervous system, which can help improve your sleep quality and reduce stress and anxiety.

  7. Reducing Muscle Tension: Misaligned vertebrae can also cause muscle tension and spasms, which can further contribute to spinal misalignments. By relieving tension in the muscles surrounding the atlas and axis vertebrae, upper cervical chiropractic adjustments can help to reduce overall muscle tension throughout the spine.
