Below is a small study that is relative to the thread I posted a few days ago.

*edited in by Chemar*here are some snips from the article. To read the full article please use the link provided above. The website that the article comes from has copyright and so it cant be copy/pasted here in entirety

any body try it?

Imad

I would recommend it too.
 

There are other upper cervical chiropractors that offer similar procedures. Of course, there should never be a promise of a cure but I do know people personally who have benefited. Check out**to find one close to you. The procedure similar to hers would be knee chest upper cervical. There are also other upper cervical chiropractic procedure that you may want to check out called blair, toggle, nucca and orthospinology. If you are in or near Columbus, Ohio or anywhere in Ohio let me know I know some good one there.

If you are unable to post here just reply where you are in Ohio or Chicago and I can direct you to people I know.

how about Texas?
 

Know anyone who does this with success (ie, they really know what they are doing) in central Texas? Thanks!

Where is Central Texas? Could you give me a town close?

sure!

Below are a few I know. The first two do the knee chest upper cervical and the last one does a more low force technique. I am not aware of any research that supports one being more superior to the other. The ones I know of and trust the most are. Knee Chest upper cervical specific, Blair, Toggle, and Orthospinoloyg. They should also use an infrared thermography unit ever visit. Some will also use a leg length check.

Helpful tips.
You should not be adjusted every single visist. The goal is to hold adjsutments and alllow you body to function better.

They should check you with the instrument every visit. It is also best to rest after the adjustment.

I would ask for upper cervical only. As some do other things.

If you are wanted to stick to what is closest to what is listed in the paper posted at the start of this discussion then it would be knee chest upper cervical. Hope this helps.
