What is an Upper Cervical Chiropractor?

An Upper Cervical Chiropractor specializes in addressing misalignments in the upper cervical spine, specifically the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae. These two vertebrae play a crucial role in supporting the head and protecting the brainstem. When they are out of alignment, it can disrupt the entire nervous system, causing a range of health issues, from neck pain to migraines and vertigo.

At Boise Peak Chiropractic, our upper cervical chiropractors use advanced imaging technology to pinpoint misalignments and provide gentle, targeted adjustments. Our focus is on helping the body heal by restoring the proper function of the nervous system without using forceful or aggressive techniques.

How Upper Cervical Chiropractors Work

The upper cervical chiropractic approach starts with a detailed evaluation, often including 3D imaging or X-rays, to assess the condition of your upper spine. Once the misalignment is identified, our chiropractor uses precise, gentle techniques to realign the vertebrae. This method is highly effective in relieving pressure on the nerves and allowing the body to heal naturally.

Patients often notice a difference after just a few sessions, with significant improvements in symptoms such as headaches, neck pain, and balance issues.

Conditions Treated by Upper Cervical Chiropractors

Upper cervical chiropractors can help with a wide range of conditions that are often connected to misalignments in the upper spine. Some of the conditions our patients seek treatment for include:

  • Migraines & Chronic Headaches: Upper cervical misalignments can lead to pressure on the brainstem, causing persistent headaches and migraines.
  • Vertigo & Balance Problems: Misalignments in the upper spine can interfere with balance, causing dizziness and vertigo.
  • Chronic Neck Pain & Stiffness: Our upper cervical chiropractors address neck pain and stiffness by targeting the specific areas that are out of alignment.
  • TMJ & Jaw Pain: The upper spine plays a key role in jaw alignment, and our chiropractic adjustments can relieve TMJ pain and discomfort.
  • Nerve Disorders: Upper cervical misalignments can compress nerves, leading to a range of neurological symptoms that can be alleviated by precise adjustments.

Symptoms Treated by Upper Cervical Chiropractors

Misalignments in the upper spine can cause various symptoms, many of which patients don’t immediately associate with spinal issues. Common symptoms that our upper cervical chiropractor treats include:

  • Chronic Neck Pain: If you have persistent neck pain that hasn’t improved with other treatments, upper cervical care may provide relief.
  • Frequent Headaches or Migraines: By addressing upper cervical misalignments, our chiropractors can relieve the pressure that often leads to headaches.
  • Dizziness or Vertigo: Upper cervical misalignments can disrupt the body’s balance, but realignment can restore proper function.
  • Tingling or Numbness in Limbs: Nerve compression in the upper spine can cause tingling or numbness, which our chiropractors work to relieve through gentle adjustments.
  • Jaw Pain or TMJ Symptoms: Our upper cervical chiropractors can help alleviate TMJ symptoms by addressing the spine’s alignment.

I was quite impressed with the technology used to assess my neck and spine.
I started my care with Peak back in mid February. I had never heard of a cervical chiropractor, until my daughter convinced me to try it. I had been dealing with shoulder/neck pain periodically, off and on, never quite getting rid of it. My last experience with a chiropractor left me injured and not feeling very confident about ever using chiropractic care again. Upon beginning my care with Peak, I began to see that this was different then anything i had ever heard of before. I was quite impressed with the technology used to assess my neck and spine. I began my adjustments, and was informed I would go through a detox with my body. Some weeks I was feeling great, and some weeks i definitely was feeling more pain. After about four weeks of regular adjustments, I probably had my worst week of pain! The following week was my best week, in fact, I didn’t even need to be adjusted. I am excited to continue my care with Dr. John and Dr. Kyara! As time moves forward, I am seeing more and more improvement. My body is beginning to recover on its own when i have been through excess stress or exertion. Before, my body was “stuck” in pain, and now it’s beginning to bounce back on its own. Dr John and Dr Kyara are both very kind, compassionate professionals. If you are on the fence about jumping in to cervical chiropractic care, take the plunge! The only thing you have to lose is your pain and discomfort!
