Legacy Spine + Nerve Care

Legacy Spine + Nerve Care Dr. Courtney Martin uses two gentle, and non-invasive techniques that were developed to restore your nervous system, body balance and perfect health.

Lubbock & West Texas' leading wellness center offers a specific and personalized neurological approach that provides hope, healing and empowerment to take back your health. The focus of NUCCA and Orthospinology work is the relationship between the upper cervical spine (neck) and its influence on the central nervous system and brain stem function. It is this relationship that affects every aspect of human function from feeling sensations in your fingers to regulating hormones, controlling movement, and providing the ability to hear, see, think, and breathe.

Can we be honest for a second?

I know you want a quick fix.
I know you're tired.
I know you've been struggling for so long that you're hoping one adjustment will change everything.

And sometimes? It DOES feel that way. People walk out after their first visit feeling lighter, happier, like a weight has been lifted.
But here's the truth:
You can't quick fix nervous system regulation.

Think about it like this: You wouldn't expect to run a marathon without training, right?
You'd need:
→ Time to build endurance
→ Consistency to strengthen your body
→ Patience through the hard runs
Your nervous system is the same. If your body has been storing chronic stress patterns for YEARS - if you've been living in fight-or-flight, functional freeze, or survival overdrive - it's going to take MORE than one adjustment to fully break through.

Each adjustment is a training session. It's helping your body reorganize. Adapt. Learn new patterns. Build resilience. Shift out of survival and into safety.

But just like marathon training, some sessions feel amazing and others feel hard. Some weeks you see huge progress. Other weeks feel slow.

And if you're deeply dysregulated?
If your nervous system is so stuck in freeze that you can't even FEEL shifts yet? It's going to take longer. Not because you're failing, but because your body needs more time to thaw, to reorganize, to remember what safety feels like.

This is not a quick fix. This is a commitment.
A commitment to showing up and trusting the process.
To giving your body the time, consistency, and patience it needs to truly heal.
You didn't get here overnight, and you won't heal overnight.
But EVERY adjustment is moving you forward. EVERY visit is training your nervous system to adapt and thrive.

Chiropractic is a lifestyle and it's laying the foundation for how your nervous system adapts moving forward.

If my child had an ear infection, here's exactly what I'd do first:
👂 Step 1: Get them adjusted
We check the upper neck and ears for any tension that could be blocking circulation and drainage. Misalignments here can literally prevent the ear from draining properly—which means the fluid just sits there creating the perfect breeding ground for infection.
👂 Step 2: Garlic mullein oil in and around the ear
Natural, gentle, and so effective.
👂 Step 3: Red light therapy
Supports the body's natural healing process and lowers inflammation.
👂 Step 4: Warm compress
Helps with drainage and comfort.
👂 Step 5: Follow-up adjustment the next day
We want to make sure everything is draining well and the body is responding.

Ear infections are often a drainage issue, not just an infection issue. When the upper cervical spine (neck) is misaligned, it can impact the lymphatic drainage from the ears—which means fluid gets stuck and creates the perfect environment for infection.

Upper Cervical Chiropractic adjustments help restore proper nerve function and drainage so the body can actually clear the infection naturally.
Combined with gentle, natural support at home, this protocol has been a game-changer for many of our office families!

"Why is my kid acting like this?"

Mama, it's not you. It's not them.
It's their nervous system screaming for help. 📢

Our kids are living in sensory OVERLOAD:
Screens. Lights.
Noise.
Artificial food.
Poor sleep.
School pressure.
Less outdoor play.
A world that never stops.

Their little bodies weren't designed for this pace. So what do they do?

Survival mode.

Did you know that a child's nervous system is still forming at every stage of development?
Every stressor - every screen, every demand, every challenge - is literally wiring their brain.

When fight-or-flight becomes their baseline, their brain thinks it's normal. But their body is stuck ON.

This looks like:
Hyperactivity
Poor focus
Sleep struggles
Big emotions
Stomach issues
Overwhelm
Random meltdowns
Tension
Getting sick constantly

Not because they're bad kids, but because their nervous system is drowning with no reset button.

When their body is stuck in survival mode:
Their brain can't process the world correctly, the vagus nerve shuts down, digestion stops, sleep becomes chaos, and emotional regulation disappears.

But here's the hope:
Their nervous system CAN reorganize.
It CAN downregulate.
It CAN find balance again.

That's exactly what chiropractic care does - removes the interference so their body can adapt, heal, and finally feel SAFE.

Your child isn't broken.
They just need support to reset.
And we're here to help. 🌿💚

Imagine your nervous system as a snow globe ❄️✨

When it sits undisturbed too long, the "snow" settles into stuck patterns - clumped in corners, blocking the view.

This is your body with subluxations and nervous system interference.
When a chiropractic adjustment is given, it is like shaking that snow globe.

But here's what's beautiful: we can't control where each snowflake falls. That's not our job.
Your INNATE INTELLIGENCE does the reorganizing. The same wisdom that heals cuts, grows babies, and coordinates trillions of functions every second.

One person's snow globe might settle with better sleep. Another's with improved digestion. Someone else might feel calmer or see their child's behavior regulate.

We don't chase symptoms. We trust YOUR body's wisdom.
We provide the adjustment and YOUR innate intelligence does the healing.
And every snowflake lands exactly where it needs to be. 🌟

Did you know that our lymphatic system is in charge of keeping our inflammation levels in check and has a direct impact on how well our body detoxes, digests, AND impacts our neurological, cardiovascular system?

There are THREE main functions of our lymphatic system:
1. Protection + immunity
2. Regulation
3. Filtration of waste products

In order for our body to keep optimal health, we need to support and work with the body on every level. The lymphatic system is one of the most underrated systems that we MUST pay attention to!

Check out the slides to find out our favorite ways to improve lymphatic flow.

Many parents don't realize that tongue tie isn't just about the visible tissue under the tongue. It's about the ENTIRE system—and this is where chiropractic becomes absolutely essential.

When a baby has a tongue tie, their whole body compensates. Tension builds in the jaw, neck, cranial bones, and fascia. The nervous system works overtime just to feed. And even after a release procedure, if those compensatory patterns aren't addressed, feeding struggles can continue.

Here's how chiropractic care supports babies with tongue ties:
🧠 Releases tension in cranial bones and facial structures—creating more space and mobility for the tongue to move freely

🔗 Addresses restricted fascia throughout the neck, jaw, and throat—because tongue tie restriction goes beyond just the frenulum

⚡ Improves nervous system communication to the muscles of the mouth and tongue—optimizing motor control for feeding, swallowing, and speech

💪 Relieves compensatory tension in the neck, shoulders, and upper back—tension that develops when babies work extra hard to feed

✨ Supports optimal healing after tongue tie release—ensuring the nervous system is clear and connected, reducing scar tissue, and promoting proper tongue movement patterns

When the nervous system and fascial structures are restricted, even a "minor" tongue tie can cause MAJOR feeding issues.

This is why we always recommend chiropractic care BEFORE and AFTER a tongue tie release. It's not just helpful—it's essential for the best possible outcome. Your baby's body needs support to release those deep tension patterns and relearn how to move and feed with ease.

If your little one is struggling with feeding, whether you've had a release or not, let's assess their nervous system first.

Sometimes the missing piece isn't another procedure—it's getting their whole body clear and connected.
