Upper Cervical Care
Upper Cervical Care is an effective, alternative treatment to drugs and surgery for a wide variety
of symptoms.
Below is just a a partial list of some of the most common, but if you do not see your health problem on this list do not assume we cannot help you. If you have a central nervous system, then it needs to be unrestricted for your body to function correctly.
High Blood Pressure
Compared to sham-treated patients, those who got the
real procedure saw an average 14 mm Hg greater drop
in systolic blood pressure (the top number in a
blood pressure count), and an average 8 mm Hg
greater drop in diastolic blood pressure (the bottom
blood pressure number).
None of the patients took blood pressure medicine
during the eight-week study.
"This procedure has the effect of not one, but two
blood-pressure medications given in combination,"
study leader George Bakris, MD, tells WebMD. "And it
seems to be adverse-event free. We saw no side
effects and no problems," adds Bakris, director of
the University of Chicago hypertension center.
Eight weeks after undergoing the procedure, 25
patients with early-stage high blood pressure had
significantly lower blood pressure than 25 similar
patients who underwent a sham chiropractic
adjustment. Because patients can't feel the
technique, they were unable to tell which group they
were in.
