This is amazing, I have a cluttered up C 1 and 2 and I haven't found anyone in my area who has this table, My ear on the right is totally clgogged and hurting since Aug. I have eustation tube issues since I was young. All the time, and I have occipital issues now, that I never had before, terrible pain and blurry vision.

[@jayheinz4624]

I have had very similar situations and have been struggling for a year and a half. I've been to specialist, dentist my chiropractor. I've got lots of friends that are doctors. I even had to have a troubled root canal tooth pulled , and it still didn't seem to help and also I've had issues with clenching in my sleep.. so I had to wear a bike guard and that helps sometimes and sometimes it doesn't..I've had prayer for this also. Tonight I think coming across this might very well help .. I hope you find help 👍🐦

Good to see you again, Dr. Cooper!

[@sugarhl3546]

how do you hold an adjustment? and can this machine restore cervical curves on it's own?

[@terman504]

Hi Dr. Cooper, it is just awesome how you adjust an atlas like that. Wow. For my concern, I am having trouble with my neck and over the years I visited many chiropractorswanted to ask you, if your patients would have reported an "instant" blood flow to the brain or instant relief of brain fog? Like if the face gets red from all the constriction over the years and then the relief. Thanks for the video Doc! best regards, Royan Eshag

[@PortlandChiropractor]

Hi Royan, To answer your question, yes, some of my patients react the way you describe. Everyone is slightly different though. Sometimes there is a neurological response, sometimes it's a CSF flow response, sometimes it's a blood flow response, sometimes it's all of it.

[@terman504]

@@PortlandChiropractor Thank you so much for the fast and professional aswer Doc. It means so much to me. Have an awesome day.

[@SmokesLetsGoBud]

I've had chronic tightness on my right side of my neck. I went to a upper cervical specialist and they didn't do any sort of machine adjustments, only with their hands. Do you think that is a proper way to adjust the atlas bone? You know what it feels like to have a dodge ball skim by your head? That's what the adjustment felt like. My chiropractor barely touched me, and only was touching my ear. Seemed like a scam tbh, but should I reconsider? Going to go in to have radio frequency ablation done from C3-C6 vertebrae soon and hoping that helps. My right side of my neck through my trap is always tight.

What are the chances of scoliosis after atlas subluxation and when can it develop at this stage?

[@terrir.7604]

I think it's great how you work on the whole body. My Nucca chiro only ever touches my Atlas. He kinda pushes it into place. He says it will align the rest of my spine. After 6 months of treatment, no relief whatsoever and it's not holding. So my question is why do you all work on the entire body whereas the Nucca chiros do not? I feel like I'm just throwing my money away with my Nucca. Now I'm going to have to go to my old regular chiro and see if she can adjust my T-spine as it feels horrible! thanks so much for this video. Wish you were here in Houston!

[@mv8908]

Check on prolotherapy. You can also wear a neck brace to train yourself not to look down. Neck phone etc

[@terrir.7604]

@@mv8908 thanks for your comment. I'm not getting any relief at all since starting with my Nucca over a year ago. I did ask him if he referred peeps out for Prolotherapy and all he said was he had a few come in after doing Prolotherapy (hint: meaning it didn't work). he wouldn't talk about it much at all...could tell he wasn't for it. I do have a straight neck so gonna try and use the Posture Pump to get the curve back (this is what my old chiro wanted me to do and had great success at ). So maybe once I get the curve back the Atlas will hold. I have no clue! I've lost trust in doctors period.

[@mv8908]

@@terrir.7604 I'm so sorry to hear that I'm one week after prolotherapy. I feel better no more tachycardia and I don't feel so dizzy but it's just one week and it takes a couple of months. Tinnitus is lower. Is it a coincidence? It been a month and a half since the last time I felt any better. Prolotherapy helps the ligaments to hold. I hope we can find a solution asap. I also got a cervical neck pillow that looks like a funny curly tongue. I feel it helps a lot too.

[@terrir.7604]

@@mv8908 That is great news for you! I do get dizzy sometimes but having an adjustment does help. I don't have Tinnitus. I do have Tachy but it's from a medication I take. So may I ask you who you see for prolotherapy and does he also adjust your Atlas as well? Or do you see an Upper Cervical plus an MD for the prolotherapy. Just wondering how that all works. guessing that insurance doesn't cover this. I have paid so much to my Nucca all for nothing. $65 for every visit. I do have two cervical pillows I'm going to try out. If you want you can email me @ [e-mail]. I think I have some issues with my occiput instability as well. I'm a TMJ patient. It's my back that is so bad...it's super tight...like fibrotic muscles. Nothing helps it.

[@mv8908]

@@terrir.7604 yes I'm seeing both.. Both are useless so I just telling them what to do. I've been sick for 7 months bed ridden so it's nice to feel better for a change. Tomorrow I'm gonna get my atlas repositioned and next week I'll get prolotherapy. That'd be my second session. I don't trust chiros tbh because I've been scammed by two chiropractics before so that's natural now. I was seeing a chiropractic weekly for four months. He cracked me entirely just for nothing. I never felt relief.

[@rxlo1062]

Awesome 👍

[@quannabrown9946]

Her issues are exactly like mine.

[@anacorona2527]

How is this adjustment held?

[@purplatypus7405]

That James Bond Villain machine seems it has to be felt to really understand. It seems like it does nothing but people seem to totally react to it. Kinda how those Actuator things seem like they do nothing but people swear its intense

[@PortlandChiropractor]

It's true. Some of my most powerful adjustments have come from that gentle tap. Instant headache relief.

Four commercials in a row, I can't afford $12 a month for ad-free KZbin. But I do have my limit on how many commercials I will sit through on a KZbin channel.

[@edgardmartinez6026]

Dr coop! Need your help.

[@EricAm841]

Good job Dr! Does that matter that My Dr does this using a handmade device which doesn’t have the sound vibration table. Basically, What he does is that he pokes my atlas and checks me for before and after Infrared thermography response. Very short visit!!! So far I have seen him 5 times and not sure if this the right treatment plan for my headaches, dizziness and TMJ problems. What would you recommend?!

[@PortlandChiropractor]

It sounds like he might be using a device called an "Activator". I can be useful too. Most cases see dramatic improvement in 6 visits. If you aren't seeing even minor improvements, I might try a different approach. Good luck!

[@EricAm841]

@@PortlandChiropractor thank you for your comment. He is only using that gun that follows the same principle I think. Sorry that I am asking you mean different approach is like dont go to this chiropractor? The X-ray images shows that I had 6 degree rotation in my atlas. I am not sure how this will be going to help if after each adjustment my C1 goes off again how we are going to obtain a trend that leads to improvement and seeing the results?! Please advise! I live in Arizona and can't go to see you at this point.i appreciate your comments

[@EricAm841]

P.S. He said the principle is the same, we just don't have the same " state-of-art orthogonal adjustments instrument" . Not sure about the precision of their instrument! Does this matter ? If so, how much difference does it make?

[@PortlandChiropractor]

@@EricAm841 I'm sure you're in good hands. 6 degrees of rotation is significant. Trust your chiro. You might need some exercises to help stabilize your neck as treatment progresses.

[@EricAm841]

@@PortlandChiropractor thank you Dr.! May I know what kind of exercises would you recommend me to start doing from today?

[@MoosePolo]

I don’t like when chiros don’t adjust the neck

[@LiveTheMastersWay]

What will be awesome in the future looking back and seeing how foolish even doctors were wearing the worthless mask and then making videos with the stupid things on. It’s terrible it’ll make people not even look like they went to med school or chiropractic med school
