Nucca

NUCCA stands for the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association. It is a very precise and corrective form of body balancing chiropractic. NUCCA is unique from most other chiropractic techniques in that it works with the body’s central balancing mechanisms that maintain a person’s ability to function in a gravity environment. It is the feedback to the brain from the eyes, ears and proprioception that allows the human body to maintain an upright posture under the constant stress of gravity. When this ability to balance the body is compromised a person’s frame breaks down and the spine locks into a stressed position. This shows up upon examination as a high and a low hip, rotated hips, and a spine that is locked into a contorted position.
