Chiropractic Adjustments
Patty was having increasing pain and stress throughout her mid- and lower-back. In fact, she was being adjusted twice a week at times just to try and keep her out of pain. Dr. Milton had always believed that chiropractic adjustments should eventually bring the spine to a place of reasonable stability. This was not happening for Patty. Dr. Steele knew of a chiropractor in Vancouver, British Columbia, who was a NUCCA doctor, Dr. Albert Berti. At the urging of some colleagues and out of frustration with Patty’s situation, Dr. Milton took Patty to Vancouver to try this new technique, NUCCA.

Chiropractic Adjustments

Dr. Milton had always believed that chiropractic adjustments should eventually bring the spine to a place of reasonable stability. This was not happening for Patty.

At the urging of some colleagues and out of frustration with Patty’s situation, Dr. Milton took Patty to Vancouver to try this new technique, NUCCA.
Spinal Adjustments
How does this light touch allow the body to realign itself with a spinal adjustment? A basic explanation is that it triggers a reflex in much the same way as a light tap below the knee will cause your leg to jump. Reflexes are “spring-loaded” for action. The Vestibulospinal reflex is the relay center that collects information from our inner ear (or vestibule, the sense organ for balance) and sends instructions for balance to the muscles supporting the spine. This maintains our body balance and keeps us upright on our feet against gravity. The brainstem houses this reflex and is like a circuit board sending and receiving a continuous stream of nerve messages for all body systems.
Subluxation
Depending on your age, the length of time you were subluxated, and the severity of that subluxation, you will need a series of corrective adjustments over several weeks to stabilize the spine and keep it in alignment. After stabilization is achieved, we suggest that you continue to have your spine checked on a regular basis. At first, this might be every month or so, but many patients hold their adjustments for considerable lengths of time. It is not unusual to hold an adjustment for several months once spinal stability and balance are restored.
Acupuncture
Esther has been involved in integrative therapies all her life. As a young girl growing up in India, she helped her mother, a registered nurse, treat abandoned babies awaiting adoption. She went on to study biochemistry at Harvard and Princeton and acupuncture at the San Francisco School of Oriental Medicine.
