Yes, I have been going to a Nucca Chiropractor for about 2 years. I receive a gentle adjustment to my atlas when needed. It has helped tremendously with headaches that I have suffered with for over 40 years. My doctor also adjusts my hips when they are out of alignment, every few months (usually caused by my working too hard around the house and yard). I have been to numerous chiropractors, neurologists, and physical therapists over the years without success. I don’t know if all Nucca chiropractors are as good as the one I found. Good luck!
I have scoliosis and have suffered with back pain for the past 50 years when I wa in a serious car accident. As I grew older the pain is more evident in different parts of my body. In the past 5 years, I had 2 knee replacements and a terrible case of lyme disease. In the past year I sincerely visited PT and Chiropractic care, Pilates and gym workouts daily...always looking for relief trying it all earnestly. I acheved some relief but the pain persisted. I even rceived accupuncture and OZONE treatments. My hair dresser, of all people, suggested that I try NUCCA. It is not covered by insurance and it was quite expensive but I have Never spent more worthwhile deductions from my retirement fund. This is an logical and absolutely a solution to my pain! It is a Very Precise process. If you are lucky to be close by a NUCCA Doctor, there is no better alternative. There are only 250 Drs. world wide. I am lucky to live in New Jersey where there are a husband and wife team. Please try it for you better health! I can testify the result!

So, I will ask the obvious question: What is NUCCA? And, what did they do that was so different and game-changing for you? I'm sure many of us would love to know.
I USE NUCCA AND CANNOT SAY ENOUGH! After years of back, neck and shoulder pain all was gone after the first treatment. Insurance didn't cover but well worth the money out of pocket. A couple times in the past year i wrenched my back and had to go in for an adjustment which is completely painless, and always come away "healed"!!

So, you get some kind of an adjustment that seems to make your pain go away...for a while. Then you have to go back for another treatment? Sounds like a great thing, especially for the chiropractor who is gladly taking your money(a lot?) each time. I guess if your are satisfied that's the main thing.

It is difficult to explain, but NUCCA is not the typical chiropractic care.

Instead of seeing the chiropractor for a series of adjustments to treat a specific pain, a NUCCA chiropractor does a full analysis of your spine, and works to align it from the top down. At first this can take a few sessions, but once in alignment, it tends to stay that way for months, or even years - unless you get an injury that knocks things out.
We have been using NUCCA for 3-4 years, and it has alleviated most of my back & neck pain and all of my hip/sciatic pain. By having my spine in better alignment, I have been able to pursue PT and exercise to recover from shoulder surgery with results my ortho proclaims as extraordinary. Having my top vertebrae in proper place has also alleviated vertigo that has plagued me all my life.
At this point we only see him 2-3 times a year to be sure everything is okay, especially before or after long driving/camping trip. Or last year, I saw him after a hard fall, and surprise, while I was bruised and battered, my spine was still aligned.

No, on both occasions I was at fault when I ran in to a door frame and smacked my shoulder which yanked my back really hard and the other time I lifted my too heavy of a grandchild without bending my knees. Otherwise I have been pain free like I say after years of pain and unsuccessful chiropractic work on my back. I was very skeptical going in but so many of my friends were so happy with thier results that I thought I would check it out. My husband also goes to the NUUCA Doc and after 3 years of seeing clinic doctors and surgeons for his back pain our NUCCA Doc said by the way he walked it looked like it was his hip and she took more X-rays, $500 worth free of charge I might add, and found that he was bone on bone in his hip and needed a total replacement of which he had and can now walk freely again as he was using a walker.

I have gone for adjustments my entire life. I go for an adjustment every 3 weeks and it’s covered by my supplemental plan w Medicare. Recently I went to a NUCCA doc and paid $420 for X-rays and an adjustment. Adjustments will cost $70, although he says people rarely need to come in. With my regular chiropractor it’s free (well not really considering the hundreds I pay monthly for Medicare and the supplemental plan.) But I cannot find a NUCCA doc who takes Medicare. I’m torn over this, because my lower back is often in pain, but my neck is obviously a mess too. And naturally the NUCCA doc says I shouldn’t see ‘other’ chiropractors. Hmmm 🤔

Well, I am extremely glad that many of you are finding relief with this type of chiropractic care.
