The medical model of healthcare has taught patients to
expect treatment even if it may not be necessary. With Upper Cervical Care, you should NOT expect a correction just for the sake of doing
something. We advise you look at it similarly to how you would a dental
appointment. If you go to the dentist, you only receive a treatment if
the check-up reveals a problem...and we do not visit dentists to address
problems, but rather to prevent them. We brush our teeth to ensure that
we get a good report from our dentist. It is that same mindset that we
use when caring for our cars or our homes - preventative / maintenance. If
you want a good report from your Upper Cervical Practitioner, it is in
your best interest to concentrate on holding your correction and
following your list of "Do's and Don'ts." You should not desire to receive
an upper cervical correction anymore than you should want to get a
cavity filled every time you go to the dentist. It means something is
wrong! It means that your brainstem has been re-compromised and that
your body has shifted back out of balance.
Regaining your health does
not come from getting your head on straight, so to speak, it comes from
keeping your head on straight.
