This procedure has been reported in Atlas Orthgonal offices around the country to be highly effective in helping problems like herniated discs both lumbar and cervical, vertigo or dizziness, headaches, nausea, neck and rib pain, low back pain and TMJ dysfunction.
Atlas Orthogonal is a highly precise Chiropractic Procedure founded by Dr. Roy Sweat in Georgia. Dr. Laura Sheehan studied directly under Dr. Sweat.
Dr. Sweat studied under Dr. Grostic who studied under the developer of Chirorpactic. The importance of adjusting the C1 vertebrae with precision, was first researched by Dr. B.J. Palmer. Dr. Palmer, the developer of Chiropractic, dedicated 35 years to the study of this very important part of the anatomy.
This area of the spine is theorized to be the centering point for all the righting mechanisms of the whole body. If this bone, C1 is not orthogonal (at right angles) with the neck and skull, many imbalances and diseases emerge in the body. There is an over-firing of the motor centers in the brainstem which leads to tighter muscles on one side of the body if the Atlas (C1 ) is not level or if it is twisted. Information going to the brain and back out to the rest of the body is weaker. The immune system and all other systems will have to work harder for the body to stay in balance.
The Procedure of Atlas Orthogonal has been studied extensively by Dr. Sheehan, who will examine patients to see if they have this type of misalignment and then make recommendations about x-rays and correction using physics, calculus and biomechanics. There are 4 3-D Pre x-rays of the upper spine are needed to find the angles of correction. A highly specialized instrument makes the adjustment in a neutral position. There is no twisting or popping the spine. 2 Post X-rays are necessary to complete the full picture of what change the adjustment made and how to fine tune it and get an even better clearing of the angles on the X-rays.
