UPPER CERVICAL Adjustment is a little-known spinal procedure that corrects the position of the top vertebra of the spine, the ATLAS.

The Atlas is a single, 2oz. doughnut-shaped vertebra at the top of the spine which has the potential to affect all the systems of the body because of its location and proximity to the brain and spinal cord.

Many nerve fibres from the brainstem travel through the small opening in the atlas and these are irritated when this bone shifts out of position for various reasons.

Dr. Rios is one of a handful of doctors in Ontario that uses this technique to effectively deal with a myriad of health conditions. See the list below.
