Understanding the Path to Wellness
Furthering our understanding of the relationship between the upper cervical spine and human health.
The Upper Cervical Research Foundation is dedicated to furthering our understanding of the intricate relationship between the upper cervical spine and human health. Through comprehensive research on the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA) procedure, we strive to unlock the potential of this connection and empower individuals to achieve optimal well-being.
NUCCA is a specific type of chiropractic care that corrects a minor misalignment between the head and neck called the Atlas Subluxation Complex (ASC) using an image-guided procedure. This subtle correction helps restore balance to the entire spinal column and body. This is crucial for good health because this precise procedure helps to optimize the brainstem and central nervous system.
At the Upper Cervical Research Foundation, we believe good health and a sense of well-being are essential to not only creating personal quality of life, but this also extends to supporting an adaptive, responsible, and peaceful society. Therefore, we’re committed to changing lives by making a significant difference in human health.
Our focus is the link between the upper cervical spine and optimal well-being. Research shows that problems in the neck can cause progressively degenerative structural, neurological, physiological and pathological symptoms. Yet, when a small but measurable spinal misalignment known as the Atlas Subluxation Complex (ASC) is detected and corrected, a return toward good health and normal activity can be realized.
The influence of the ASC correction is uniquely profound which is why NUCCA doctors and UCRF scientists study the upper cervical spine and the role it plays in illness, health and wellness. Our experienced and diverse project teams are carefully selected to document and publish findings and testable studies associated with the Atlas Subluxation Complex and its impact on a vast range of health challenges.
We’re devoted to the evolution of healthcare and the well-being of the human experience. To promote change that truly makes a difference, we need many partners. Please browse our website and consider joining our membership to lend your hand to change. It’s a remarkable work in progress.
