Am I a candidate for NUCCA care?
Are you a candidate for an upper cervical (NUCCA) spinal correction?
If you want to remove barriers to self-healing, and you can answer yes to one or more of the following questions, then you may be a candidate for our care. Please request a consultation with the doctor.
- Have you ever been told by a chiropractor, podiatrist, tailor, or seamstress that you have one leg that is shorter than the other?
- Have you ever been prescribed a heel lift for a ‘short leg’?
- When you look in the mirror do you see your head tilting toward your right or left shoulder?
- When you look in the mirror do you consistently see one shoulder that is higher?
- Do you limit carrying handbags or purses to one shoulder because the strap falls off on one side?
- For women, do you always find one bra strap falling off of one shoulder?
- When you wear a belt, do you notice that it sits higher on one hip than the other?
- When you walk do you find that your waistband tends to twist towards one side of your body, pulling the inseam out on one side?
- Do you suffer from a head, neck, back or body pain that cannot be explained by other doctors? Or pain that is not responding to other kinds of care, including traditional chiropractic?
