What is Blair Upper Cervical Technique?

Since 1961, the Blair Upper Cervical Technique has been redefining the way people think about chiropractic care and how it relieves pain and improves overall wellness. By targeting spinal misalignments through a series of advanced diagnostic tools, Blair practitioners are able to gently correct and realign the upper cervical spine so that the body can naturally return to its natural, healthy and aligned state. Our goal is to create lasting improvements in the lives of our patients.

The brain and spinal cord make up the Central Nervous System, which controls and coordinates all body functions. Neurons in the brain send low voltage electrical impulses to all body cells. The nerves act as electrical “wires” to carry messages: ‘motor’ nerves carrying messages from the brain to body cells, and ‘sensory’ nerves informing the brain of the body’s condition and external stimuli.

If the brain to body communication is unimpeded, HEALTH is the natural result. But a misalignment can impede the electrical flow, causing dysfunction that will ultimately produce pain and disease. The goal of Upper Cervical Chiropractic is to locate and correct these misalignments to allow the Brain to Body Communication to restore and maintain health.

An assessment takes 45 minutes and involves a spinal exam, thermography scans, X-ray evaluation, and neurological evaluation. After a misalignment is found a correction only takes a moment. It’s recommended to rest for a few minutes after the correction, and then you are free to continue with your day.

Care is unique to each person’s history, experience, traumas, and X-ray evaluation. Expect to work with Dr. Dolcecore for a few weeks to start holding alignment. Once alignment holds, strengthening and supporting the neck is the next step. We help you along the way with the end goal being complete CORRECTION.
