Upper Cervical

Orthospinology

A close cousin to NUCCA with a slightly different vector.

Orthospinology is another measured, low-force upper cervical technique. Dr. Sweeney reaches for it when a patient's upper cervical picture responds better to this variation.

How it works

Also imaging-guided and specific. The contact and vector differ from NUCCA, but the philosophy — one precise correction that unwinds the rest of the body — is the same.

About Orthospinology

Which is better, NUCCA or Orthospinology?
Neither. They're two tools for the same job, and the exam and imaging determine which one fits your case on any given visit.

Think Orthospinology might be the right fit?

You don't have to be certain. Dr. Sweeney will confirm on the first visit — and choose a different tool if it isn't.
