Conditions We Treat
When the atlas vertebra is misaligned, the effects ripple throughout your entire body. Here are the conditions Houston patients come to us for most.
Each condition below is linked to upper cervical misalignment — and each responds to the gentle, precise corrections that NUCCA provides. Click any condition to learn exactly how we can help.
Vertigo & Dizziness
Spinning rooms, balance problems, and Meniere's symptoms often trace back to atlas misalignment affecting the inner ear and brainstem.
Learn More →Migraines & Headaches
Chronic migraines and tension headaches are frequently caused by nerve compression and altered blood flow at the atlas level.
Learn More →Anxiety
When nerve signals between your brain and body are disrupted, it can trigger a chronic stress response — even when there's no external threat.
Learn More →Fibromyalgia
Widespread pain, fatigue, and sensitivity can stem from central nervous system dysfunction caused by upper cervical misalignment.
Learn More →Numbness & Tingling
Unexplained numbness in the hands, arms, or legs often results from nerve compression at the brainstem level — not the extremities.
Learn More →Trigeminal Neuralgia
Electric-shock facial pain caused by trigeminal nerve irritation — a condition that responds remarkably well to precise atlas correction.
Learn More →TMJ / Jaw Pain
Jaw clicking, locking, and chronic pain frequently involve structural imbalance originating from the upper cervical spine.
Learn More →Brain Fog & Chronic Fatigue
Persistent mental cloudiness and exhaustion can be caused by reduced cerebral spinal fluid flow and impaired brainstem function.
Learn More →Sleep Issues
When the nervous system is stuck in a stress response, restful sleep becomes impossible. Atlas correction helps restore your natural sleep-wake cycle.
Learn More →Immunity & Whole-Body Wellness
Your immune system is regulated by the nervous system. When nerve communication is clear, your body's natural defense mechanisms work as intended.

It may seem surprising that so many different conditions share a common link. But when you understand the role the atlas plays — protecting your brainstem and controlling nerve flow to every organ, muscle, and system in your body — it makes perfect sense.
A precise NUCCA correction doesn't treat individual symptoms. It restores the communication pathway between your brain and body so your body can heal itself, the way it was designed to.
