Advanced Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic

by Dr. Steve Racine

Advanced Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic is a very effective and modern form of chiropractic & upper cervical treatment, utilizing state-of-the-art technological advances. In fact, it is so advanced that many medical Neurologists in Europe are trying to emulate the method. However, they are still 30-40 years behind a trained Advanced Atlas Orthogonal chiropractic physician.

Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic is very safe, gentle, painless, and extremely effective for a wide variety of health problems. This type of Advanced Chiropractic is often sought out by people whom have been to many other doctors – whether medical doctors, or chiropractors.   The human body has an amazing natural ability to heal itself, so in most cases, there is no need for drugs or surgeries to get someone well. Of course, some modern medicines are great for life threatening emergencies.  But drugs & surgeries should be considered last, not first, resorts.

Many health problems are caused by “short circuits” within the nervous system. The Atlas Orthogonal chiropractor is highly trained at detecting and safely correcting nerve interference, also called "subluxations." Since the Atlas (C1) surrounds the brainstem (top portion of the spinal cord), and the brainstem controls all body functions, it makes sense that a “short circuit” and nerve interference at the Atlas level, can create all sorts of health problems and pain!  Advanced Atlas Orthogonal treatments are done with a state-of-the-art, safe mechanical sound-wave percussion instrument. The instrument is absolutely non-intrusive, non-threatening and low force. Depending on the specific misalignments and nerve interference (determined through proper examinations & Xrays), the instrument is placed specifically and accurately by the trained physician. Once the patient is properly positioned, a gentle percussive sound-wave ‘force’ is generated at the site of the misalignment.

Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic is quite different from the typical “old fashioned” chiropractic. There are NEVER manipulations involved. There is NO “popping” or “cracking” of the neck or back. Typically, additional  years of Post Doctoral studies are necessary to learn these new and improved methods in modern chiropractic health care. Not every doctor is the same however.  Just like any other profession, some are better at their specialty than others.

An Atlas Orthogonal doctor is a specialist in the brain stem and upper cervical area, through which the whole body is affected. The brain controls the body’s functions through the brain stem. The Atlas Orthogonal doctor can positively affect the body’s function and health by properly aligning the Atlas, which is the first cervical bone also called C1.  Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic is the fastest and most efficient Upper Cervical Method at correcting nerve interference related problems, and much easier and faster at resolving health problems and pain than regular chiropractic.  It is also much safer than drugs, medicines, and surgery’s health threatening side effects.

Because this specialty demands more schooling beyond chiropractic school and because of the focus and accuracy needed from an Advanced Atlas Orthogonal doctor, not many chiropractors continue to seek accreditation in this higher echelon of health care. There are approximately 4,000 Upper Cervical doctors in the world.

The following list of symptoms and ailments have helped successfully with Atlas Orthogonal care. If you have any of these ailments, it is possible you are suffering from subluxations (brain and nerve interference):

This list is not meant to be comprehensive or to list every health problem ever helped through a better functioning human frame, but rather a general list of common health problems facing our communities. It is important to remember that an Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractor does not treat any particular disease or symptom. They correct nerve imbalance and restore the body’s proper function and health, and then the symptoms usually alleviate naturally. The nervous system controls all of the body’s functions. This is a natural method of health care and may be an alternative to prescription drugs and even surgery.
