C2 cervical adjustments don’t need force or rotation.

Prone moves are light, precise, and protect the rest of the neck.

This makes them ideal for geriatric patients, post-surgical cases, and those with hypermobile connective tissue disorders.

She came in with a T4 disc issue that was affecting her breathing, causing suboccipital headaches, and sending numbness/burning into her hand.

After seeing several chiropractors with no change, one precise adjustment during a seminar led to relief within a few HOURS.

Specificity matters. The nervous system responds when the right segment is addressed.

Your neck isn’t just about neck pain. It houses the pathways between your brain and body.

The reason we adjust in the chair with little to no rotation is simple: spinal discs don’t tolerate rotation well.

“I would never lay someone on their back and aggressively turn their head side to side. I would never let anyone pull on my head with a strap, and I wouldn’t do it to a patient…”

The cervical spine is incredibly sensitive, and the ligaments were never designed to handle long-lever manipulation.

The goal isn’t force or motion everywhere, it’s moving one bone, in a specific direction, to a specific depth, at a specific moment, and leaving everything else alone.

The jaw is deeply connected to the upper neck and even the pelvis.

A pelvic issue can show up as a jaw problem. An upper-neck dysfunction can affect the jaw too, each in different ways.

That’s why low back pain can be linked to night clenching, and why sinus issues, ear aches, tooth pain, popping, or clicking in the jaw often trace back to upper-neck mechanics.

Just because pain shows up in one place doesn’t mean that’s where the problem started.

Jaw corrections should be gentle, precise, and intentional. This is a sensitive joint surrounded by critical anatomy. The vagus nerve, arteries supplying the brain, and veins draining it.

The goal is simple: least disruption, greatest change.

Distraction fragments thought. Focus gives ideas the space to form, deepen, and become real.

Protect your attention. That’s where imagination is trained.

Specific beats force. Every time. 🩻

The thoracic spine makes a lot of noise 🩻

Each vertebrae has 10 articulations. Moving them specifically requires the right table, line of drive, depth and timing.

Precision matters. Specificity matters. Because when the thoracic spine moves correctly, the nervous system communicates clearly and the body does what it was designed to do: heal, adapt, and thrive!
