Techniques We Use

Upper cervical chiropractic is a highly specialized technique that focuses specifically on the atlas bone or C1, which connects the head and the neck. When the atlas is out of its proper position, the head moves off center of the body. This creates body imbalance from head to toe and restricts/distorts vital messages from the brain to every part of the body. Nerve distortion and body imbalance can lead to a large variety of health problems and pain. The NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) technique very precisely and gently corrects the misalignment of the atlas. Body balance is restored and nerve impulses transmit clearly giving the body a chance to heal.

Get the best treatment from the most experienced chiropractor.

BEST (bio-energetic synchronization technique) and NET (neuro-emotional technique) are energy balancing/clearing techniques. They help to release old traumas and current stresses. They help the body process and integrate the structural changes brought about by the upper cervical correction.

Instrument adjusting is a hand held machine called the impulse adjuster from Neuromechanical Innovations. The machine sounds like a typewriter but functions more like a jackhammer as it taps along the spine. The tapping is adjusting and realigning the vertebrae of the spine which helps restore brain/body communication.

Traditional chiropractic adjustments realign the spine and improve nervous system communication throughout the body with a bit more focus than the other techniques. These adjustments are primarily done in the thoracic spine (middle back). Neck and low back adjustments/cracks are rarely if ever necessary or performed.

  I've been seeing Ken for years - he's the best I've found.  Not just for the occasional pain/tweak that needs to be addressed, but also for preventative care with posture and overall spinal/mind-body health.  Ken's been an incredible resource for stretches and exercises that actually keep me from having to make appointments to see him!  For anyone looking for a chiropractor in Chicago, I cannot recommend him enough!

  I can’t thank dr ken enough for his help, he got me when I was going through a lot from cervical damages and spine problems causing difficulty in my eyes, headaches and quality of life. Dr ken got me back rolling and it’s been years with him and he is by far a great man as well.  Thank again always.

  I have been seeing Dr. Ken for over a year and I can't say enough about the positive impact it has had on my health.

His expertise as a chiropractor is exceptional and this was evident on my first visit.   He took the time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly evaluate my condition. This personalized approach made me feel not just like another patient, but like a valued individual with unique needs.

Furthermore, the results I've experienced under his care have been truly significant. I suffer from Meniere's Disease, extreme allergies and a recent shoulder injury. Through a combination of adjustments, Dr. Ken has helped me navigate my MD with fewer symptoms and has significantly improved my shoulder issue.

What truly sets Dr. Ken apart, however, is his genuine compassion and dedication to his patients. I always feel supported, encouraged, and well-informed during every visit. The doctor-patient relationship he establishes is built on trust, and it's evident that he genuinely cares about the well-being of his patients!
