When surgery, medication or traditional chiropractic care have not provided healing results for a range of conditions, patients often come to see Dr. George Gertner of Upper Cervical Chiropractic of New York, one of Just 200 practitioners worldwide of NUCCA, a highly specialized form of chiropractic care. Highly effective, NUCCA is a very gentle adjustment to the first-C1-vertebra in the back, commonly referred to as the Atlas.
Dr. George Gertner
Upper Cervical Chiropractic of New York
311 NORTH STREET, SUITE 410 WHITE PLAINS, NEW YORK 10605 914-686-6200 www.ucc-ny.com
When the head, which can weigh as much as 14 lbs, is out of alignment, it can put tremendous pressure on the nerves which run from the brain through the openings in the Atlas to the rest of the body, explains Dr. Gertner. “Twisting can cause a range of health issues from migraines and herniated discs, to dizziness, fibromyalgia, allergies, asthma, chronic neck and back pain, and many others. NUCCA is highly precise and gentle treatment designed to correct the misalignment.”
Dr. Gertner uses two different diagnostic tools to assess the misalignment and determine the treatment. Paraspinal Digital Infrared Imaging is used to view pressure on the nervous system while the Precision Laser-
Aligned X-Ray enables the doctor to calculate with great accuracy the location and extent of the misalignment. Through a series of adjustments, the NUCCA procedure restores proper body balance and alignment which takes the pressure off the pinched nerves. In most cases, nerves, which may have been under stress for many years, will return to their normal state and proper nerve health can be restored. Often the restoration is visible in before and after x-rays which can literally show the spine as it returns to its healthy position
Dr. Gertner learned the power of NUCCA first-hand. After experiencing a serious back injury earlier in his life, Dr. Gertner was treated with NUCCA procedure and discovered personally the astonishing healing power of this gentle procedure Immediately after his first adjustment, Dr. Gertner felt relief. Following the first complete week of care, he was pain-free.
“NUCCA has developed a highly advance and painless spinal correction procedure unlike any other kind of spinal care. We are proud to report that our practice has attracted and helped thousands of patients from all over the world since opening in 2002,” says Dr. Gertner.
