For me, the chiro and PT helped but did not provide a healing treatment. They just helped the C1 and surrounding vertebra settle a bit. I had to learn to be careful with sleep posture 100% of the time. I cannot sleep with my head tipped forward like most pillows do. If I sleep on my back, my pillow just supports the side of my head. If I sleep on my side, I need my pillow to lift my head so my neck stays straight.

For me, it appears that if I sleep in a bad position, inflammation sets in and messes with blood flow and nerve conduction.

What symptoms are you still struggling with?
