Dr. Windman - The Atlas

Atlas Orthogonal Care

How may it help?

 

Headaches, migraines, neck pain, peripheral neuropathies, shoulder pain and TMJ dysfunction are quite common these days. The stressful lives we lead, incorrect posture, sports injuries- including concussions, and car accidents may be some of the major causes behind these symptoms. Painkillers, antibiotics and surgeries are usually prescribed to the patients.

 

However, most patients and their physicians are unaware of a conservative, drugless, non-invasive treatment that may provide effective outcomes for these symptoms. 

 

Causes

 

Cervico Cranial (Atlas) Junction can often be a major underlying cause behind many health issues, such as headache, chronic pain, neck pain, back pain, and chronic fatigue syndrome among others. The spinal cord is the extension of the brain and plays a vital role in proper fuction of the human body. If the very top of the spine (Atlas or C1) that directly connects with the brain is misaligned, the entire spine loses its proper alignment, causing compensation  and the head and body will no longer remain in balance. This may lead to the symptoms listed above. The nervous system is not able to communicate properly with the body and the condition worsens over time. A more extensive list of causes can be seen below:

 

• Car or motorcycle accidents
• Slips and falls
• Blows to the head
• Sports related injuries, including concussions
• Bad sleeping habits
• Poor posture/Ergonomic positions using computers
• Incorrect lifting
• Dental or jaw problems - including the use of improper appliances
• Seizures
