Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care & CFS
A recent case study found large quality of life improvements in patients with CFS following upper cervical chiropractic care called the NUCCA procedure. The upper cervical spine houses the brainstem which is a very important part of the central nervous system. A misalignment in this area puts pressure on the brainstem and interferes with the nervous system. A gentle touch and controlled contact on the first vertebrae in the neck is designed to restore balance to the spine and the nervous system.
