Why NUCCA Chiropractic?
Through a referral, I found myself in the office of a NUCCA Chiropractor in my college town. The NUCCA adjustment was so gentle that I did not believe the doctor had done anything. Two days later the sciatic pain that I had for months started to lessen in intensity and was completely gone within a week. I entered Chiropractic college about 3 months after my first NUCCA correction and have dedicated my Chiropractic career to the detection and correction of the upper cervical subluxation through NUCCA Chiropractic care.

NUCCA Experience
I myself am in my final submission of x-rays for my Full NUCCA Board Certification, an honor which less than 30 NUCCA doctors have obtained since NUCCA was founded in 1966.
NUCCA Board Certification is the most demanding and rigorous testing of a doctor's adjusting and x-ray work within the field of Chiropractic.
Through this process of x-ray film submission, my work is constantly checked and evaluated by other Certified NUCCA doctors to ensure that I am exceeding NUCCA Board standards.
The outcome is that my patients are guaranteed that every day they will be receiving the gold standard in precise Upper Cervical NUCCA corrections.
Pediatric and Family Focus
While practicing in Virginia I realized and developed my true passion in caring for children and families. My youngest patient so far was less than 6 hours old and had just come through a very traumatic birth, but has done amazing since his first correction.
It is my firm belief that everyone should be checked for spinal misalignments from birth, and adjusted when necessary for the rest of their lives.
Proper communication between our brain and body is an essential element to how we function as a human. If you have never been evaluated by a NUCCA doctor for an upper cervical misalignment please call or email us to set up your consultation today.
