I self adjusted my neck by putting a belt around my forehead. And hanging by my head. The biggest pop I've ever heard and the best relief I've ever felt.... Been 3 days now and I feel amazing
A massage therapist for along time now... Taught lots by chiropractors... First one I'd worked for pulled my stomach out of my hiadus... Another gave me an herb... The bleeding stopped in 3 days... Had been to a hospital for 1.5 years with no results... Thanks for sharing...
I accidentally adjusted my own once, I think. My brain released happy, my feet were tingly, I could breathe easier and I couldn't stop smiling for a week.
@@tonyceeone Bro it was a freak accident that I havent been able to repeat since I did it 6 years ago. I was doing yoga. Towards the end of my routine I transitioned from fish pose to neck stretch. I took a deep breath and I popped several vertebrae. I felt it from my atlas to my pelvis. It was awesome! Still trying to chase that dragon.
Last night I turned my head and laid it down funny and my neck gave in to the weight and cracked like those glow sticks and I was asleep so I didn’t have the moment of fear or surprise, I felt a chemical and electrical rush that I’ve never felt. One of the most amazing things I’ve experienced.
very helpful. I just started going to chiropractor today for really bad headaches on left side. I was told before that my atlas is extremely misaligned. I'm praying this helps my pain thanks very much
I watched the above video and I tried to put two fingers where directed. When I pushed lightly, my atlas moved (clicked) and now NO BACK PAIN!! I know this sounds too good to be true, but I am as surprised as you!! I'll monitor and repost if necessary.
Make a vid of you doing that...why do you think it helped the lower back? Because of nerve energy being released to the lower back muscles to help them activate and stabilize better?
I had a chiropractic adjustment and now I have vertigo, tinnitus, headaches and auras. I think he injured me by accident by pulling my neck the wrong way. I have a previous injury and shoulder impingement. Do you think it's possible he misaligned my atlas? Please help if you can. I'm getting all of the MRI's and MRA's, went to ENT, now I think I need a vestibular therapist. It's very scary. Thank you.

I wish I could find a chiropractor in my area that could do this, the only thing they try is twisting my neck, nothing ever helps constant headaches, stiff neck, can only look forward, if I look down left or right causes a lot of pain then migraines hit. Hurts sleeping even. So much pain and no one can help
We can only ever really help ourselves through changing posture and commitment to practices that re align the body. I had to learn this the hard way after spending several thousands looking for someone to "fix me".
The problem is the muscles & ligaments pulling the bone out of alignment!!! A chiropractor can’t help with cervical instability..... Try Egoscue Method & getting oxygen & blood to the area.....
I have tension / pain in the area you discussed, since i have cervical fusion from 4 to 7. With my fusion, can my neck be adjusted in this upper area. I have not went to a chiropractor due to this and because i'm very skeptical and scared. Thanks
Here just learning as a patient. My chiropractor likes the Gonstead method. Thanks for the information! I wonder, is the analysis different and more difficult on a patient with a hypermobile neck? And what is the process of double checking your work? Thanks for your time.
Hello sir im 40 years and some1 tell me that this age the bones start to become weak, im not aware i lift heavy loads like 15 kgs i just 1 hand and carry it for 15 mins to travel, now i was applying oversea but i was hold in medical because they found out my spine is missalign but they the clinic indicate i have a serious problem, Sir can i massage my neck bone to bring it back to center? I think i dont have problem just missalign, btw my overaea application already rejected
I just have tinnitus and I don't what to do I don't have back pain and other symptoms Is that side effects of antibiotics after I was a patient of Dengue?
I'm a RRT, hurt my left shoulder and neck while boosting a patient. 4 days later, I went tachycardic, hypertensive, vertigo. All cardiac tests have been normal. HR continues to rise to 130 for no reason. It's been 2 months since my injury. Any recommendations?
PLEASE HELP!! I slightly landed on my head months ago and at first I thought I was fine but days later I had so much head pressure I felt like someone was squeezing my head it got so bad I was having bad panic attacks I went to the ER and they just gave me migraine medicine and sent me home because I don’t have insurance. I finally got an X-ray and they said I have a military neck and that they THINK I have either a herniated disc or bulge and need an MRI but no insurance so can’t afford it so I never did. I been in pain everyday since I get headaches that medicine and nothing can take away I rotate between ice packs and heating pads but some days are just so bad I cry. I feel dizzy some days and it’s just so much pain and pressure like right where the top my neck and skull meet and it favors on my right side. There are days my temple hurt or I’ll get tingles all around my head I get so many different body feelings ever since. Idk what to do and it gives me so much anxiety that idk if I should go back to the ER .. can u please explain or help me understand what is happening to me?? 🙏🏽
sabes como se puede curvar hacia atrás el atlas cuando hubo una rectificación? Ha mejorado la curva pero aún mi cráneo no está en la posición que estaba originalmente. C1 debería hacer un shift posterior. Gracias
Hello Dr. I have I slight C1 and C2 rotation (specially C2) which apparently, is responsible for my 'out of the blue' symptoms during the last year (blurry vision, dizziness, headaches, nystagmus, nausea, reflux). A chiropractor told me there's a big chance he could fix this with treatment, but I was wondering what will happen with the ligaments? Could they become looser? I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks!
Look for an atlas orthogonal chiro who uses an activator to tap the atlas in place. I say no to thrust manipulations on my neck because I have craniocervical instability
Doctor, I have a problem. I live in Morocco, but I have not found a specialist to help me with treatment. I think I will have to undergo surgery to restore the C1 location because it is severely deviated from one side and I cannot raise my head because of that. Can you help me find a specialist in Morocco or resort to surgery? ??

Hey guys Dr swae lee here, I’ve been practicing diy heart surgery for over 10 years now and for a lot of you heart surgeons out there that are having trouble with successful surgeries, I’m going to be teaching you some tips and tricks on how to hopefully get better results!
Hi Dr, your videos are great, thanks, subbed. I have a question: I got functional scoliosis, due to poor posture, it is getting better with correction exercises, but one side of my neck feels weaker than the other, how do I balance both sides of the muscles? are chin tucks enough? my right side of occipital muscles wobbles when I touch it... would appreciate any suggestion...
If someone is having trouble rotating their head how would you know if it's the atlas or the other cervical vertebrae that's causing it?. Can you tell just by feeling the neck or do you have to use x rays and movement tests?
What is the best way to adjust the atlas? Adjustment while patient is in the seated position or using the toggle/toggle recoil? And would you use these technique on a toddler, say a 2 year old?
My c1 goes out a lot. I have the activator method used or the electric gun to adjust it. It may hold a week at the most. How would the gonstead method help me?
I've been seen a cervical chiropractor who uses NUCCA technique to correct the atlas. I've had bad symptoms for almost 10 years now. I've started this treatment 6 months ago, I stopped exercising to reduce stress on my neck, so far I'm not seeing any solid results, yeah maybe it's less tension in my neck but as soon as I carry a heavy grocery bag or try to workout, I can fell it right away. I was really giving it a try, but I'mm getting hopeless. Should I give it more time and not exercise at all for like 2 year since I've had this issue for a long time or is it all just a wishful theory or maybe I'm just not seeing a good professional. Has anyone fixed their atlas for good? Pls reach out, I believe my sinusitis is due to a pinched artery in my neck. I hasn't been able to find a doctor who understands this issue And dealt with it before.
You can't get sinusitis from your neck. You also can't get stronger via atrophy of muscle and thus, not working out for 2 years isn't going to help you any more than not working out for 2 weeks. You need a good professional to figure it out. There is an answer. I have lots of other videos on this. Just use the search function.
Sir,i have been diagnosed with atlanto-axial subluxation..my c5-6 vertebrae is fussed..i always have stiffness at the back of my neck and tinnitus..feel like vertigo..sir can i be cured?? please help me
@carmen venturo it's more the muscles getting tight and compensating because your atlas is off. It will impinge nerves and cause all kinds of fun. A round of stem cells in the cervical spine was enormously beneficial in reducing my tinnitus to nearly nothing. centenoschultz.com does it. They also can treat the alar ligament (the things that keep your atlas in place) but only even entertain that option as a last resort.
@@AdamJStoryDC the 1st time I thought we had it dealt with, the 2nd chiropractor (6 yrs later) had told me the same thing and that we had to do a series of adjustments (again) so I held off.

Is this something a regular chiropractor can adjust or do I need to see one of them expensive nucca chiropractors that insurance doesn’t cover? Anytime I google this everything says nucca..
@@AdamJStoryDC because my insurance doesn’t cover it and I can’t afford it.. I was quoted $300 for the first visit. That’s why I asked if traditional chiropractic treatment would help with this?
So which one the best technic to adjusted ATLAS : Lying or sitting/gonstead technic. I saw so many technic in youtube and most of them lying on our back.
Hello, my name is Andrew. I'm a 19 year old college student. I have been battling daily headaches and muscle tension in my upper back/shoulders/traps/neck for over a year.

I am 45 years old and suffering from ankylosing Spondilytis since the last 15yrs or more.My neck is stiff with 45'lateral movement and stiffness more concentrated on the upper body.Can it be restored to some extent?
Adam J. Story, DC Bullshit don't listen to this jerk any doctor that says you can't get better should lose their license ...... He's a know it all the truth is with a chiropractor you will on!y get a little better..... You must heal from the inside out the area needs oxygen inflammation is what's causing the stiffness and pain...... Get rid of the inflammation and everything loosens up and you will feel normal again..... To say a massage or adjustment will heal a deep injury is ridiculous and unrealistic...... Eat a grain free diet water veggies organic and use oxygen drops magnesium vitamin d3 and collagen powder also very important is vitamin k2...... Good luck and you will heal
@@AdamJStoryDC thank you very much!Could you explain in a few words what Anterior Superior Left Anterior is!Atlas is rotated and tilted?Your answer is very important to me/
It means the adjustment will aim backwards with a counterclockwise twist of the thumb from the left side while the head is slightly turned left 5 degrees or so. Are you a chiropractor?
I have been suffering from what was showing as a misaligned C1 in CT. It has been causing ear ringing and vertigo. Been to a chiropractor 3 times now and no improvement. How do I find a local chiropractor that will be able to do this?
I don't think of it as anterior/lateral. I adjust the MOTION RESTRICTION. So I analyze how it's NOT moving and the adjustment corrects the MOTION, not a POSITION.
C1C2 mean rotation is 45 degress. so why should 45 degress be a problem ? symmetrical movement is rare. rotation can be restrictd by ligamentum alare which is indirectly attached to dens at c2 which can cause restricted lateral flexion of c0 c1.
I can feel my atlas bone bulging out on the side of my neck. I get many symptoms, numbness of multiple areas such as face, tongue, arm (all on the one side I feel the bulge/bone)etc...but no pain or significant lose of movement. Is this just a matter of adjustment or something more serious? Not sure whether to see a dr or chiro
See a gonstead chiro. Most other mainstream chiros crack a whole bunch of random crap and make as many popping noises that dont do anything. No specificity
Sometimes I think I am able to get the audibles from it. I have a lot of neck pain and it gives me a lot of headaches, so I curiously try adjusting every part of my neck until it feels less tense. What I do is lay face down on the ground, with my nose facing the direction of restricted motion (my right side). Once there, I can already feel tension in my cervical vertebrae. At this point, I slip my hand under my chin, palm down so my jaw is basically resting on my knuckles. From this spot, I gently manipulate my heads orientation until I can feel where it's most resistant/tense. Once I zero in on that angle, I use my knuckles as a fulcrum and sometimes even use them to gently push up to add some extra (GENTLE!) torque into the motion, and rotate my head into the adjustment. I usually hear two audibles, and it feels like an anaconda was constricting my neck the whole time until I hear the gratifying pops. I don't know if this is safe or not, but it's helped me for the last few months.
@@gabbygonzaga552 hello , in my experience Blair upper cervical is the best ! NUCCA is 2nd best. Atlas orthogonal was a joke for me but we all different what works for most doesn't work for some . But yeah I would not let any chiropractor touch me or my family unles it's Blair .
HEY! PLS answer this question! thank you. So, this morning I woke up and it was very cold, then I went to the toilet to pee. I sat down for awhile and decided to turn my head diagonally to crack it, as soon as I cracked it i heard quite a loud pop on the right back of my neck and it started to hurt. I then felt a bump on the back of my neck, I'm not sure but I think is the c7. I'm scared if it's dislocated or broken. I don't feel any numbness anyone, or pain anywhere else but the back right side of my neck . Can you help me diagnose my situation. today is the second day after this incident.
My chiro has a patient that stopped havfjn daily seizures after upper cervical adjustment. However she does have pockets of fluid in her brain. But the seizures stoppdd.
Where exactly are you located? I need this in my life! I strained my neck looking towards my left side and had a migraine attack for the past 2 days. From the back of my neck to the eye socket, left side
It’s likely we can help. We do see international patients and patients from other states in the USA. The reason why is because we are close to Los Angeles International airport and we have the Camarillo Outlets stores. Many patients travel from China, Japan, Western Europe, etc. These stores are known for their shopping and people travel from all over the world to come here. Here’s the link: www.premiumoutlets.com/outlet/camarillo/about. Simply fly to LAX and you can see me for chiropractic care and shop at the Outlets. The best hotel is the Hampton Inn because it is across the street from the Outlets and it’s on Las Posas Road which is a mile from my office. Here is their website: hamptoninn3.hilton.com/en/hotels/california/hampton-inn-and-suites-camarillo-OXNHSHX/index.html. Our phone number can be found on my website: www.camarillochiro.com.

That stinks I'm in Louisiana and would be too far. I'm playing hell trying to find someone that does the toggle technique, no one will do it in my area, most chiropractors seem to be scammers here. My old chiropractor is still recovering from open heart surgery. Do you know is there anyway there is a search I can find what chiropractors in my area use what techniques to adjust people?
@@ChrisLawley43 They're not scammers. They're just not doing something that you're demanding of them. Occasionally, I'll have a patient that demands that I do something. "Doctor, can you crack my neck? I have a headache" and I'll take their blood pressure first and it's 210/120. Um..."No." They get pissed, but I may have just saved their life. But they're not happy. Sometimes there's a reason a Doctor won't adjust the atlas.
What i mean is there scammers is I have been gong to a chiropractor for the last 3 years and he's about 85 years old the best around. I go in and he measures my leg length sometimes he will say I'm short and out of balance and sometimes he says you have a perfect ballance, when he says I have a perfect balance he sits me in a chair and feels my neck to see if there is something else out. Sometimes he will say like c1 or c2 is rotated to the right or left and he will adjust me sitting there what he calls a master upper cervical adjustment I think is the term. Before i found this awesome chiropractor through a guy i worked with I had gone to a chiropractor for 6 weeks and this guy NEVER..... EVER..... measured my leg length i would go in there he would twist my hips and crack in the center of my back and crack my neck same routine for 6 weeks. Chiropractor I been gong to for the last 3 years my first adjustment was the toggle recoil technique using the drop. Let me say it took me a week and a half for my body to recalibrate and get back to what is normal head over your shoulders is suppose to feel like, my head had been stuck leaned to the right for over 10 years. So YES there are chiropractors out there that are scammers and want to keep you going back to make money off your ass and for any chiropractor who says I can put you on a 3 month plan RUN from them because it's a scam. Sorry this is from a patients points of view and what I have experienced. I tried another younger chiropractor out and honestly he's a joke to using a NUCCA technique which is a scam it is a high dollar massage. Paid all this money for X-rays and it was a waste. I have another chiropractor i want to try out and I think he uses the toggle recoil technique if he can't help me i am truly screwed for in my area. i see many videos of how i want to be adjusted that my chiropractor does because it works for me and all these people are far far away. Reason I am on the search is my chiropractor isn't going to be around forever as recently I almost lost him and in desperate need of another chiropractor and my current will tell the new chiropractor how he adjust me but no one wants to learn from a veteran which is ashamed because he has so much to offer and wants to share. Sorry be so long but felt it was needed to share to others so they don't get wrapped up in the scams. I mean I get it you have to make a living but if someone becomes so great they will get repeats and word will spread. When I am being adjusted I usually hold the adjustment 3-4 weeks now i know a chiropractor may not like that because he wants me in 4 times a week to make the money but being adjusted that much even from my current chiropractor says it isn't good. This chiropractor i go to sees all the people around that other chiropractors couldn't fix or they simply didn't want to for the lack of repeats. If I had the brains, I'd become a chiropractor but I don't, if I could skip all the schooling and learn the hands on I would be great at it because i've been a X-ray pipe welder for the last 13 plus years and it's all hands on. I have learned a lot from my current chiropractor that it really does start in the neck and the rest of the body will follow. This last younger chiro wanted to talk about my hips and leg length but didn't want to really adjust the atlas which even he said was OUT, that is why everything else was out going down. I've learned alot about my own body in these last 3 years which I have to so I can get the correct corrections I need. I know when I am out which is right now it is the atlas for sure and possibly the others below it.
@@ChrisLawley43 In short, you want someone to adjust your C1 in a seated posture and to check your leg length. Is that accurate? There are many different methods but if that's what you're looking for I'm sure you'll find it. Those procedures you're asking for isn't hard to find.

If your Atlas is going out every week then you're doing something wrong because the body should want to hold on to that adjustment more than any other as to not put any irritation or pressure on the brain stem and surrounding Anatomy. That is why the goal of upper cervical Chiropractic is to correct the atlas misalignment and allow the patient and monitor the patient so that they hold the correction without coming out of adjustment or alignment. The body can only heal or the nervous system can only heal when the atlas is in its proper position so if you are coming out every week something is not right either you're not receiving and ample correction or you are doing something that's causing physical or mechanical stress in the area and causing the bone to move out of position either way I would address it as soon as possible do to ligaments being damaged when the bone is out of position the more you damage the ligaments the less the bone has a chance to stay in its proper position only when the bone is in its proper position can the ligaments even begin to heal which is what causes you to hold an adjustment to be continued.
@@AdamJStoryDC my apologies for such a long comment this summarize version is why are you having to get your Atlas adjusted once a week?? For John Milton I figure that's a fair question for you as a chiropractor with 22 years of experience to potentially answer I don't know that it's about keeping up but I understand you're probably very busy.

@@AdamJStoryDC thank you! I'm doing that. I'm reviewing about one a day. I loved the Gonstead insights.
I just have tinnitus and I don't what to do I don't have back pain and other symptoms
Is that side effects of antibiotics after I was a patient of Dengue?
I'm a RRT, hurt my left shoulder and neck while boosting a patient. 4 days later, I went tachycardic, hypertensive, vertigo. All cardiac tests have been normal. HR continues to rise to 130 for no reason. It's been 2 months since my injury. Any recommendations?
PLEASE HELP!! I slightly landed on my head months ago and at first I thought I was fine but days later I had so much head pressure I felt like someone was squeezing my head it got so bad I was having bad panic attacks I went to the ER and they just gave me migraine medicine and sent me home because I don’t have insurance. I finally got an X-ray and they said I have a military neck and that they THINK I have either a herniated disc or bulge and need an MRI but no insurance so can’t afford it so I never did. I been in pain everyday since I get headaches that medicine and nothing can take away I rotate between ice packs and heating pads but some days are just so bad I cry. I feel dizzy some days and it’s just so much pain and pressure like right where the top my neck and skull meet and it favors on my right side. There are days my temple hurt or I’ll get tingles all around my head I get so many different body feelings ever since. Idk what to do and it gives me so much anxiety that idk if I should go back to the ER .. can u please explain or help me understand what is happening to me?? 🙏🏽

sabes como se puede curvar hacia atrás el atlas cuando hubo una rectificación? Ha mejorado la curva pero aún mi cráneo no está en la posición que estaba originalmente. C1 debería hacer un shift posterior. Gracias
Hello Dr. I have I slight C1 and C2 rotation (specially C2) which apparently, is responsible for my 'out of the blue' symptoms during the last year (blurry vision, dizziness, headaches, nystagmus, nausea, reflux). A chiropractor told me there's a big chance he could fix this with treatment, but I was wondering what will happen with the ligaments? Could they become looser? I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks!
I have c1 and c2 rotation - look for a NUCCA practioner … another form of chiropractic
Look for an atlas orthogonal chiro who uses an activator to tap the atlas in place. I say no to thrust manipulations on my neck because I have craniocervical instability

Doctor, I have a problem. I live in Morocco, but I have not found a specialist to help me with treatment. I think I will have to undergo surgery to restore the C1 location because it is severely deviated from one side and I cannot raise my head because of that.

My problem seems to elude every upper chiro and I’m suffering for two years, travelled to 6 states to try and fix it. C0-1 or the OA joint is subluxed. They keep moving c1 and jamming the joint further.

Hey guys Dr swae lee here, I’ve been practicing diy heart surgery for over 10 years now and for a lot of you heart surgeons out there that are having trouble with successful surgeries, I’m going to be teaching you some tips and tricks on how to hopefully get better results!
Please I need a technique how do you for yourself to know people doesn't understand English
Hi Dr, your videos are great, thanks, subbed.
I have a question: I got functional scoliosis, due to poor posture, it is getting better with correction exercises, but one side of my neck feels weaker than the other, how do I balance both sides of the muscles? are chin tucks enough?
my right side of occipital muscles wobbles when I touch it... would appreciate any suggestion...
I'll make a video regarding that in the future. Look for it.
If someone is having trouble rotating their head how would you know if it's the atlas or the other cervical vertebrae that's causing it?. Can you tell just by feeling the neck or do you have to use x rays and movement tests?
Hockey&Life etc. palpation gives you information without radiation, but you can do motion X-rays (cinema radiology)
May I know where you are? How to make an appointment? Thanks
What is the best way to adjust the atlas? Adjustment while patient is in the seated position or using the toggle/toggle recoil? And would you use these technique on a toddler, say a 2 year old?

I've been seen a cervical chiropractor who uses NUCCA technique to correct the atlas. I've had bad symptoms for almost 10 years now. I've started this treatment 6 months ago, I stopped exercising to reduce stress on my neck, so far I'm not seeing any solid results, yeah maybe it's less tension in my neck but as soon as I carry a heavy grocery bag or try to workout, I can fell it right away. I was really giving it a try, but I'mm getting hopeless. Should I give it more time and not exercise at all for like 2 year since I've had this issue for a long time or is it all just a wishful theory or maybe I'm just not seeing a good professional. Has anyone fixed their atlas for good? Pls reach out, I believe my sinusitis is due to a pinched artery in my neck. I hasn't been able to find a doctor who understands this issue And dealt with it before.
You can't get sinusitis from your neck. You also can't get stronger via atrophy of muscle and thus, not working out for 2 years isn't going to help you any more than not working out for 2 weeks. You need a good professional to figure it out. There is an answer. I have lots of other videos on this. Just use the search function.
I also tried Nucca for 6 months and it really felt like a scam and I got no results.

Do you beleive that the misaligment of the Altlas can possibily cause tinnitus?
Yes
Yep
@carmen venturo it's more the muscles getting tight and compensating because your atlas is off. It will impinge nerves and cause all kinds of fun. A round of stem cells in the cervical spine was enormously beneficial in reducing my tinnitus to nearly nothing. centenoschultz.com does it. They also can treat the alar ligament (the things that keep your atlas in place) but only even entertain that option as a last resort.

I have tinnitus right now after a recent concussion. Iam looking at starting osteopath and or chiro/nucca to try to address it.

Is this something a regular chiropractor can adjust or do I need to see one of them expensive nucca chiropractors that insurance doesn’t cover? Anytime I google this everything says nucca..
Why not try nucca? There's other forms of chiropractic.
@@AdamJStoryDC because my insurance doesn’t cover it and I can’t afford it.. I was quoted $300 for the first visit. That’s why I asked if traditional chiropractic treatment would help with this?
So which one the best technic to adjusted ATLAS : Lying or sitting/gonstead technic. I saw so many technic in youtube and most of them lying on our back.
I like the seated side adjustment (Gonstead classic) due to safety reasons of zero rotation, but I will use whichever helps the patient the most.

@@AdamJStoryDC thank you very much!Could you explain in a few words what
Anterior Superior Left Anterior is!Atlas is rotated and tilted?Your answer is very important to me/

You'll have to find a chiropractor that can do a Gonstead adjustment. You'll have to call around.
Yellow pages
Any updates ?
@@alexorphic2752 OMG yes. Finding a Gonstead chiropractor made a huge difference
@@SeanKirkpatrick1 so you have no tinnitus or vertigo ?
So if atlas is presenting as L Anteriorly rotated and L lateral, the side you adjust is the left side ??
I don't think of it as anterior/lateral. I adjust the MOTION RESTRICTION. So I analyze how it's NOT moving and the adjustment corrects the MOTION, not a POSITION.
C1C2 mean rotation is 45 degress. so why should 45 degress be a problem ? symmetrical movement is rare. rotation can be restrictd by ligamentum alare which is indirectly attached to dens at c2 which can cause restricted lateral flexion of c0 c1.
That's why motion palpation is so important and should be done by an expert (a chiropractor) and not based upon degrees of motion.
How is does this compare to atlas Profilax procedure?

I can feel my atlas bone bulging out on the side of my neck. I get many symptoms, numbness of multiple areas such as face, tongue, arm (all on the one side I feel the bulge/bone)etc...but no pain or significant lose of movement. Is this just a matter of adjustment or something more serious? Not sure whether to see a dr or chiro
See both
See a gonstead chiro. Most other mainstream chiros crack a whole bunch of random crap and make as many popping noises that dont do anything. No specificity
Hey doc does this cause your ears to clog as well
Ears being clogged is most commonly ear wax or infection.
Upper cervical problems can mimic the sensation of clogged ears however
Do have a chiropractor you recommend in the Denver area?
Sometimes I think I am able to get the audibles from it. I have a lot of neck pain and it gives me a lot of headaches, so I curiously try adjusting every part of my neck until it feels less tense.
What I do is lay face down on the ground, with my nose facing the direction of restricted motion (my right side). Once there, I can already feel tension in my cervical vertebrae. At this point, I slip my hand under my chin, palm down so my jaw is basically resting on my knuckles. From this spot, I gently manipulate my heads orientation until I can feel where it's most resistant/tense. Once I zero in on that angle, I use my knuckles as a fulcrum and sometimes even use them to gently push up to add some extra (GENTLE!) torque into the motion, and rotate my head into the adjustment. I usually hear two audibles, and it feels like an anaconda was constricting my neck the whole time until I hear the gratifying pops. I don't know if this is safe or not, but it's helped me for the last few months.
Man...this sounds like a bad idea.

Use motion palpation. X-ray's to determine alignment is so 1960's.
Does the atlas cause popping an grinding?
Any joint in the body can do that
It might be due to weakness as well

HEY! PLS answer this question! thank you. So, this morning I woke up and it was very cold, then I went to the toilet to pee.

It’s likely we can help. We do see
international patients and patients from other states in the USA. The reason
why is because we are close to Los Angeles International airport and we have

That stinks I'm in Louisiana and would be too far. I'm playing hell trying to find someone that does the toggle technique, no one will do it in my area, most chiropractors seem to be scammers here. My old chiropractor is still recovering from open heart surgery. Do you know is there anyway there is a search I can find what chiropractors in my area use what techniques to adjust people?
@@ChrisLawley43 They're not scammers. They're just not doing something that you're demanding of them. Occasionally, I'll have a patient that demands that I do something. "Doctor, can you crack my neck? I have a headache" and I'll take their blood pressure first and it's 210/120. Um..."No." They get pissed, but I may have just saved their life. But they're not happy. Sometimes there's a reason a Doctor won't adjust the atlas.
What i mean is there scammers is I have been gong to a chiropractor for the last 3 years and he's about 85 years old the best around. I go in and he measures my leg length sometimes he will say I'm short and out of balance and sometimes he says you have a perfect ballance, when he says I have a perfect balance he sits me in a chair and feels my neck to see if there is something else out. Sometimes he will say like c1 or c2 is rotated to the right or left and he will adjust me sitting there what he calls a master upper cervical adjustment I think is the term.
Before i found this awesome chiropractor through a guy i worked with I had gone to a chiropractor for 6 weeks and this guy NEVER..... EVER..... measured my leg length i would go in there he would twist my hips and crack in the center of my back and crack my neck same routine for 6 weeks. Chiropractor I been gong to for the last 3 years my first adjustment was the toggle recoil technique using the drop. Let me say it took me a week and a half for my body to recalibrate and get back to what is normal head over your shoulders is suppose to feel like, my head had been stuck leaned to the right for over 10 years. So YES there are chiropractors out there that are scammers and want to keep you going back to make money off your ass and for any chiropractor who says I can put you on a 3 month plan RUN from them because it's a scam. Sorry this is from a patients points of view and what I have experienced. I tried another younger chiropractor out and honestly he's a joke to using a NUCCA technique which is a scam it is a high dollar massage. Paid all this money for X-rays and it was a waste. I have another chiropractor i want to try out and I think he uses the toggle recoil technique if he can't help me i am truly screwed for in my area. i see many videos of how i want to be adjusted that my chiropractor does because it works for me and all these people are far far away. Reason I am on the search is my chiropractor isn't going to be around forever as recently I almost lost him and in desperate need of another chiropractor and my current will tell the new chiropractor how he adjust me but no one wants to learn from a veteran which is ashamed because he has so much to offer and wants to share. Sorry be so long but felt it was needed to share to others so they don't get wrapped up in the scams. I mean I get it you have to make a living but if someone becomes so great they will get repeats and word will spread. When I am being adjusted I usually hold the adjustment 3-4 weeks now i know a chiropractor may not like that because he wants me in 4 times a week to make the money but being adjusted that much even from my current chiropractor says it isn't good. This chiropractor i go to sees all the people around that other chiropractors couldn't fix or they simply didn't want to for the lack of repeats. If I had the brains, I'd become a chiropractor but I don't, if I could skip all the schooling and learn the hands on I would be great at it because i've been a X-ray pipe welder for the last 13 plus years and it's all hands on. I have learned a lot from my current chiropractor that it really does start in the neck and the rest of the body will follow. This last younger chiro wanted to talk about my hips and leg length but didn't want to really adjust the atlas which even he said was OUT, that is why everything else was out going down. I've learned alot about my own body in these last 3 years which I have to so I can get the correct corrections I need. I know when I am out which is right now it is the atlas for sure and possibly the others below it.
@@ChrisLawley43 In short, you want someone to adjust your C1 in a seated posture and to check your leg length. Is that accurate? There are many different methods but if that's what you're looking for I'm sure you'll find it. Those procedures you're asking for isn't hard to find.

Wrong. You may need your atlas adjusted just as much as any other adjustment, it depends on your specific case. My atlas actually goes out every week.
You didn't even watch the video. When you say "wrong" I assume you have a better way to adjust the atlas, which you don't.
If your Atlas is going out every week then you're doing something wrong because the body should want to hold on to that adjustment more than any other as to not put any irritation or pressure on the brain stem and surrounding Anatomy. That is why the goal of upper cervical Chiropractic is to correct the atlas misalignment and allow the patient and monitor the patient so that they hold the correction without coming out of adjustment or alignment. The body can only heal or the nervous system can only heal when the atlas is in its proper position so if you are coming out every week something is not right either you're not receiving and ample correction or you are doing something that's causing physical or mechanical stress in the area and causing the bone to move out of position either way I would address it as soon as possible do to ligaments being damaged when the bone is out of position the more you damage the ligaments the less the bone has a chance to stay in its proper position only when the bone is in its proper position can the ligaments even begin to heal which is what causes you to hold an adjustment to be continued.
