Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic care is a very gentle, effective and proven Chiropractic technique that does not utilize physical manipulation. If you don’t like being “cracked” this is a relief care you should try.
Your “atlas” is actually the top Vertebrae of the Spine that supports the head. “Orthogonal” means at right angle to or square. If the Atlas is not square to the head and spine (referred to as subluxated) then the head and spine are by necessity out of alignment.
Essentially if the head is not on straight then the spine cannot possibly be straight. The resulting stress that ensues may cause discomfort to the back, shoulders, pelvis, hips, knees and ankles.
