Christensen Chiropractic

Dr. Barbara Christensen, a dedicated and empathetic chiropractic practitioner, has been serving patients at her practice in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, for many years. Her journey is deeply intertwined with the NUCCA method, a specialized chiropractic approach that has transformed not only her own life but also the lives of countless individuals seeking relief from various health challenges.

Dr. Christensen's path to becoming a chiropractor was profoundly shaped by a life-altering accident in 1994. This event left her with debilitating injuries, including profound vertigo, balance issues, significant weakness, and episodic confinement to a wheelchair. Desperate for relief and a return to normalcy, she sought treatment from renowned medical institutions throughout the country-the Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, and Harvard Medical School, to name a few. Despite exhaustive medical explorations, Dr. Christensen's condition remained stubbornly unresolved.

It was through NUCCA care that she finally found the healing she had been yearning for. This remarkable experience ignited a passion within her to share the transformative power of NUCCA with others who suffered similarly and to dedicate her career to helping them reclaim their health and well-being. Dr. Christensen brings a profound understanding of NUCCA's benefits, coupled with her own personal testament to its efficacy, to each patient interaction. Her commitment to patient care extends beyond the chiropractic table, as she actively participates in educating her patients about NUCCA, empowering them to take ownership of their health journey.

Why Choose NUCCA?

The NUCCA method, developed by the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA), stands apart from conventional chiropractic techniques due to its unparalleled precision and gentle approach. Unlike forceful manipulations that can potentially cause further harm, NUCCA employs a highly specialized, low-force technique to address the root cause of many health issues - a misalignment of the first vertebrae in the neck, known as the Atlas.

Precision Spinal Correction

Precision is paramount in NUCCA care. Dr. Christensen meticulously analyzes x-rays before any adjustment, meticulously calculating the precise angle required to correct the misalignment. This intricate planning ensures that the adjustment is targeted and effective.

Gentle Adjustment Technique

Patients frequently describe the NUCCA adjustment as surprisingly gentle, a notable departure from the typical forceful cracking or popping often associated with other chiropractic methods. During the adjustment, patients feel a subtle pressure, indicating the precise realignment of the Atlas vertebrae.

Exacting Standards

Dr. Christensen maintains exacting standards at her practice. Following the initial adjustment, a set of post-adjustment x-rays are taken to meticulously verify the accuracy of the correction. This meticulous evaluation allows for adjustments to be made as necessary, ensuring optimal spinal balance.

Effective and Comprehensive

The NUCCA method goes beyond simply addressing neck pain. By correcting the Atlas subluxation, it sets in motion a cascade of positive effects throughout the entire body. Improved posture, balanced leg length, level hips, and optimized weight distribution are just some of the remarkable outcomes patients experience.

Convenient and Affordable

Compared to other chiropractic approaches, NUCCA's effectiveness often translates to fewer follow-up visits, making it both convenient and cost-effective for patients.

A Different Approach

Many patients who have struggled with various medical and alternative treatments have found solace and lasting relief through NUCCA care. Its dedication to gentle precision and its ability to address the root cause of many health issues make it a unique and transformative approach to healthcare.
