Atlas Specific Upper Cervical Care We believe in restoring the body’s innate ability to heal through Specific Upper Cervical Care Restore your health from the top down, inside out!

Upper Cervical Care (UCC) is interested in the intimate relationship between the first two vertebrae in the neck, the atlas and the axis, and the brain stem. When subluxations occur in these top two vertebrae, the nervous system cannot communicate properly with the other body systems, and dis-ease can occur. The main goal of UCC is to remove interferences to a properly functioning nervous system, restoring the body's innate ability to heal itself. UCC is therefore concerned with the prevention of dis-ease in the body rather than the treatment of symptoms.

Chronic neck pain. Headaches. Back pain. If you've been living with these and nothing has given you lasting relief, there's likely something that hasn't been evaluated yet.

At Atlas Specific in Durango we take a different approach. We find where it actually starts.

Our $49 new patient special includes a full consultation, thermographic scan, comprehensive chiropractic exam, specific upper cervical x-rays, and a complete report of findings, all in plain language.

The less energy you spend managing your symptoms, the more energy you have for what matters most.

Chronic neck pain that keeps coming back almost always starts at the very top of your spine, where most providers never look.

At Atlas Specific we find where it actually begins. Then we correct it precisely, specific to you.

Some people know exactly when their neck pain started. A car accident. A fall. A moment they've never forgotten. Others have no idea, it just slowly became part of life.

Most have tried chiropractic. It helped for a while. Then they were right back where they started.

There's a reason for that cycle. And it starts at the very top of your spine.

At Atlas Specific in Durango, we find where it actually begins.

What do you think about this? I love it.

Before every upper cervical adjustment, we run a thermography scan to check for interference to the brainstem.

From there, X-rays pinpoint the exact misalignment, and the adjustment itself corrects it, precise and gentle.

This is what that correction looks like in real life.

If you've ever wondered how upper cervical care actually works, here you go.

Most people have never heard of Adverse Mechanical Cord Tension. But if you've been living with chronic low back pain, leg symptoms, or numbness and tingling that nobody has been able to explain, this might be the missing piece.

Your spinal cord runs from your brainstem all the way to your tailbone. When the upper cervical spine misaligns, it can place the entire cord under tension. Because the central nervous system is the master control for your entire body, that tension can create dysfunction far below where it actually begins.

It's not always about where the pain is. It's about where the problem starts.
