While NUCCA is a well-accepted form of chiropractic, patient procedures differ from the more traditional techniques. NUCCA treatment begins with specific x-ray views taken from specialized digital x-ray equipment that uses very minimal radiation. The positional relationship between the top bones in the spine named the Atlas, the skull, and the rest of the neck below the Atlas are analyzed to measure the exact degree of the misalignment for each patient.
Each person's misalignment pattern is entirely unique to them. Lastly a NUCCA adjustment is very gentle, precise, and an effective treatment that does not use twisting, cracking, or high force to realign the spine and improve body function. When the spine is in an optimal position, the nervous system can function at 100% efficiency. Because of the nature of this technique, it is much more favorable to people that may be apprehensive of traditional chiropractic care.
Also because of the high precision of the adjustment, fewer adjustments are required.

The first stage of your care is relief.
During this stage our goal is to get you out of pain and to break up the muscle memory that is holding your spine in the wrong position.
During this phase of treatment you will generally see your doctor 2 times per week.
You can expect to be completely or almost completely out of pain by the end of your relief phase.
This is comparative to the stage in orthodontics that is done before braces such as widening the palate, removing baby teeth that haven't fallen out, etc.

Well I only went for one appointment and never got adjusted so not sure if I can give you proper data.
I have been attending Symtery Health chiropractic for 4 to 5 years now and I am happy with the way that I've been treated I look forward to going in every month and I always feel great when I leave.
Great experience on a personal level.
I struggled with back pain for a while and ever since I started seeing Dr Pat my pain level has decreased significantly.
This was definitely the right move for me personally.
