https://balancedlivingchiropracticplc.com/ At Balanced Living Chiropractic we have dedicated ourselves to helping the people of Metro-Detroit reach health goals they never thought possible. Of approximately 60,000 chiropractors worldwide, there are only about 2000 upper cervical doctors (These doctors focus their care to the most critical component of the human spine; the atlas or C-1 vertabrae.) Of those, there are only about 200 doctors that have dedicated themselves to the science and art of NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association). Currently, Dr. Cicala is 1 of only about 12 NUCCA upper cervical specific doctors in Michigan . And while we generally meet people after they’ve lost their health, our commitment is two-fold:
1. Relief Care for Metro-Detroit

When many people seek care in our office they have one goal: relief. So that’s where we start! During this initial stage of intensive care, we have several obligations:

Uncover the underlying cause of the health problem
Suggest a care plan to produce the fastest results possible
Offer ways practice members can participate in their recovery
Explain the value of post-symptomatic wellness care

2. Wellness Care for Metro-Detroit

We encourage our patients to achieve the highest levels of health they can. Through educational opportunities (like this website), we hope to communicate the value of ongoing chiropractic care. Our desire is to see our patients abandon the prevailing sickness care model of health (waiting for symptoms and then taking action), in favor of the emerging wellness model. You’re the Boss

Regardless of your health goals, please understand that we see ourselves as mere servants. You’re the boss! It’s your body, your health and your future. Our job is to offer you the finest chiropractic care possible, and it’s up to you to decide how much of it you want. Sound interesting?

Pain isn’t just a symptom to mask. It’s your body’s way of saying something deeper needs attention. True, lasting relief comes from restoring your body’s natural balance and finding the root cause.

It’s time to leave quick fixes behind and begin your wellness transformation. Address the source, and you’ll unlock a stronger, healthier you.

💭 “If nothing hurts… why would I need to get checked?”

That’s what most people say right before symptoms show up.

Most people wait for pain before they take action.

But pain is actually your body’s last language — it speaks after compensation has run out.

Before pain, your body whispers through:

-,fatigue or low energy

- uneven posture in photos

- tension in the shoulders

- brain fog or irritability

- the constant need to “crack” your neck

These are signs the nervous system is trying to adapt around a misalignment — often caused by an old fall or bump you forgot about.

💡 The earlier a misalignment is corrected, the easier the body heals.

You don’t have to wait for the loud symptoms.

📍 We offer non-invasive upper cervical evaluations to detect stress before it becomes a problem.
