GENTLE PROVEN CARE.
The Doctors at the Alpha Spine Center are trained to screen each patient that comes in our office to see if they have Spinal Dysfunction caused by pressure to their brain stem. We begin by screening each patient at their first visit to see if they have muscle tension, poor posture, imbalance, or misaligned legs. If a patient shows these symptoms, they continue to a more thorough evaluation using the latest technology. Using non-invasive scanning techniques, they are able to determine if there is pressure on a person’s brain stem where the atlas sits under the skull. If a patient DOES NOT show signs of pressure, then the doctor will not proceed with treatment, and will help the patient find another caregiver to help them with their condition. If a patient DOES show signs of pressure at their brain stem, then the doctor will proceed by taking detailed x-rays of the patient's spine.
The doctor will then analyze the x-rays to determine the amount of spinal dysfunction and calculate how to correct it back to its normal position. The doctor then reviews his/her analysis with each patient and specifically goes over that patient’s condition. The doctor will answer any questions that the patient has and help them understand the need for treatment. A successful NUCCA treatment is demonstrated by the patient’s posture, muscle tension, and leg length all coming to a state of balance after the patient has been through the procedure. The final step to determining if the correction was successful is taking a post x-ray to see if the skull, the atlas, and the neck bones are all in proper alignment. This is measured using quantifiable observations of millimeters and degrees. As the benefits of NUCCA care show, the patient will be able to decrease the number of chiropractic visits,
experience less discomfort during treatment (no popping/cracking), and be provided with visible evidence of their correction by using the measurable data analyzed in the x-rays (no guessing on whether the adjustment worked).
