Upper Cervical Council

Upper Cervical Council The Council on Upper Cervical Care is a professional forum designed to advance expertise in the analysis and care of the upper cervical spine.

The Council on Upper Cervical Care is one of the specialty councils of the International Chiropractors Association. It is a professional forum designed to advance expertise in the analysis and care of the upper cervical spine
and to be a voice for upper cervical chiropractic in research, education, clinical and policy-making environments. To this end it offers a post-doctoral program in upper cervical care leading to a Diplomate in Chiropractic Craniocervical Junction Procedures (DCCJP). By building a strong network of upper cervical professionals, the Council seeks to promote unity within the articular- and orthogonal- based procedure groups to increase chiropractic's impact on public health, advance research and be a solid resource
for information on upper cervical care.

Dysautonomia is an umbrella term used to describe several medical conditions that cause a malfunction of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls many essential functions including your heart rate, blood pressure, kidney function, and temperature control.

Dysautonomia can be caused by a degenerative disease or result from an injury. With Upper Cervical Care, the symptoms of dysautonomia can improve with expert care.

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ In Loving Memory of Dr. Kerry Johnson ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

This past weekend, we were honored to learn from Dr. Kerry Johnsonโ€”his passion, brilliance, and dedication to the NUCCA Spinal Correction technique left a deep impact on everyone in the room.

With heavy hearts, we share the news of his passing. His legacy lives on through the lives he touched and the knowledge he so generously shared.

We are grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from him just days ago. Here is a powerful moment from his recent presentation with us.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends, and all who loved him.

Rest in peace, Dr. Johnson. You will be deeply missed. ๐Ÿ’™
