At Bountiful Spinal Care, we’re dedicated to providing our patients with the most effective and gentle chiropractic techniques available. That’s why we specialize in NUCCA, a unique and highly effective approach to spinal care.
What is NUCCA?
National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association. It’s a specialized approach to chiropractic care that focuses on the upper cervical spine, which is the most critical region of the spine. The upper cervical spine is made up of the top two vertebrae, known as the atlas and axis. These vertebrae play a crucial role in protecting the brain stem and spinal cord, which are responsible for controlling many of the body’s automatic functions, such as heart rate, breathing, balance, postural control, and digestion. When the upper cervical spine becomes misaligned, it can put pressure on the brain stem and spinal cord, leading to a wide range of health problems, including:
- Migraines & headaches
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Back pain and sciatica
- Fatigue and insomnia
- Knee pain and plantar fasciitis
- Allergies and sinus problems
- EDS & Arnold Chiari
- Fibromyalgia and chronic pain
How does it work?
NUCCA is a gentle and non-invasive approach to chiropractic care. Instead of using traditional chiropractic techniques, such as cracking and popping, NUCCA chiropractors use a specialized technique to restore balance and alignment to the upper cervical spine. The process begins with a thorough examination, including digital X-rays, to determine the extent of the misalignment. Once the misalignment has been identified, the chiropractor will use a specialized table to gently and precisely restore balance and alignment to the upper cervical spine.
