How Can Upper Cervical Help Me?

Specifically, the brainstem, the seat of the autonomic nervous system(ANS), controls your body’s responses to the presence or absence of stress. Pressure on the upper cervical area due to misalignment of the top two bones in the neck creates an imbalance in your ability to manage outside stress over internal healthy function(i.e. digestion, respiration, circulation, hormone regulation, etc.). Removal of this interference restores communication from the brain to the body and brings balance to the nervous system.
