"Some get benefits from upper cervical chiro treatment."
if the upper cervical chiro treatment you are referring to is anywhere near the "Blair Technique" or 'Blair Upper Cervical', RUN FOR THE HILLS...
do not listen to their snake oil sales pitch...
i was hurt BADLY by the 'Blair Technique' type of adjustment...
why in the world would anyone want to attempt to adjust c-1 or c-2 with the brain stem wrapping up business there and all the nerves that protrude from that area of the cervical spine and brain stem...
several nerves of mine are damaged by the adjustment or compressed due to inflammation...we are still trying to find all the damage that was done to me 20 months after the last adjustment was done...
i traded my well being for some beer money for a chiro that did this to me,,,
it is barbaric and unbelievable to me anyone would consider doing this to another human being...
i am loaded with info on this horrible, horrible practice, so lemme know if you want to know more...
Brainstemmed (by a chiro)
