Yes, the rehab chiro I'm seeing is board certified in Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic.

He does not use the 'device' shown on the videos though; instead relying on slight traction, body/head positioning and his own hand/finger pressure to make the adjustments.
With each visit he has also given a new set of exercises as well as modifications in sleeping position to assist in maintaining the vertebral position realignment. When lying down, I wear a traction collar that needs to get checked for fit and sometimes adjusted after each visit.

I'm not sure, but how my case is being handled might be a little different than what someone might receive as a treatment protocol for an upper cervical misalignment that was not head/neck injury related.

In checking this form of chiropractic therapy I out, I did learn that it requires specific certification in order to practice it; be that as a singular health care discipline or as an additional modality that may be employed by other health care professionals.

With love, Erika
