Understanding Hemodynamic Changes and Headaches: The Role of Upper Cervical Misalignment
Introduction The Craniocervical Junction: A Critical Crossroads The craniocervical junction (CCJ) comprises the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae, which support the skull and facilitate a wide range of head movements. This region also houses vital neurological structures, including the brainstem, and serves as a conduit for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood flow between the […]
Upper Cervical Spinal Care: A Gentle Approach
Neurological Effects of Upper Cervical Correction Anatomy and Physiology of the Craniocervical Junction The craniocervical junction, comprising the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) vertebrae, is a critical region for neurological function. This area supports the skull, facilitates head movement, and houses the brainstem, the conduit for neural pathways between the brain and the rest of […]
