All About Atlas Orthogonal

What exactly is an Atlas Orthogonist?
The Atlas Orthogonist is a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic who, in addition to six or more years of education, utilizes a light force method of adjusting the cervical spine. This method is gentle and effective and requires post graduate training.

How does this unique method differ from General Chiropractic treatment?
One of the most obvious differences is the gentle, painless way in which he works. No strenuous manipulation is ever employed or needed. The Atlas Orthogonist's methods require such light touches to the affected area that patients, who may expect more forceful manipulations as part of their treatment, find it hard to believe that anything effective has been accomplished. Their doubts and fears quickly vanish when their pain and discomfort disappear.

How does gentle treatment work?
The Atlas Orthogonist works in a way which speeds and encourages the body's own healing process. The doctor aids that process by gently adjusting the cervical vertebrae back toward normal alignment, thus helping the entire body. The Chiropractor's patients, men, women, and children, soon realize that health care need not be harsh or painful to be effective. Prevention and early detection of misalignments through regular checkups is the key to natural health.

Who can benefit from an Atlas Orthogonist?
Almost anyone who is experiencing pain. Not just those who suffer from pain and stiffness in the back, but also those who are afflicted by such common conditions as: recurrent headaches, muscular aches of unknown origin, numbness or pain in the shoulders, the arms or legs as well as sciatica, "slipped discs",... even conditions such as hay fever, high blood pressure and rheumatism to mention a few, may be relieved by the skills of an Atlas Orthogonist. Since the spine is the central core of the human body, it is vitally important that it be examined on a periodic basis... even though there are no apparent signs of trouble.
