Atlas Orthogonal

 Atlas Orthogonal is a chiropractic program to evaluate and correct sub luxation based on scientific and bio mechanical procedures. By incorporating the latest advancements in scientific technology, chiropractors can calculate, in precise detail, the vectors specific to an individual sub luxation pattern, and program their instrument with the specific correction vectors to deliver the adjustment without any manipulation at all.

 Has anyone had atlas orthogonal treatment....?
I had 2 atlas orthogonal adjustments so far but before i get into to that hes my story...i've been having problems with my neck since my snowboarding accident for about 2 years now...the only thing i had tried until now was massage from a sports doctor and osteopath wich seemed to give me temporary relief from the stabling sensation i was feeling in my neck and pressure in the back of my head.
A couple of months ago i started getting nerve pain from my neck that traveled underneath my shoulder blade to my arm...i knew i had to do something about it before it gets worse so i went to physio for one session which made it worse...my nerve got inflated and i had to go to the hospital from the pain all they did was give me pills and sent me home...After taking anti flamatories for 10 days it calmed down and i could function then 1 day i was on you tube and came across a video of a lady that was on the show "The D'rs" she had the same problems i had except the headaches i never had headaches..she had an atlas orthogonal adjustment....i thought i had found the solution to my problems and it made sense so i did some research and i found the closest chiro that had that machine.
The chiro did the X-Rays and found that my atlas was misaligned by 2.5 degrees to the right wich explains why i felt the pressure in the back of my head and numb shoulder,he also did x-rays after the adjustment to see if it went back in place but he only showed me the next session..after doing my first adjustment i felt like a weight came off my shoulder and my neck got loose in fact too loose...just felt a little weird but slept good that night.I woke up good just felt a little sore in the neck no big deal but in the afternoon afetr moving around for a bit around my house i felt nauseous and had all kinds of symptoms but didn't last long...i took a relaxant and at night the muscles got all loose again i almost felt like i had no neck..Had another good night sleep and felt better the next day till a little sore though but no symptoms...I already had another appointment that day so i told the chiro i felt better.He showed me the x-rays that we took after the adjustment and told me my atlas moved back to 0.25 almost straight but another vertebra had moved to 3 degrees wich was previously at 2.5 but he said it was in a good way dont know what he meant by that.I should of stoped right there cause i was feeling better..He did another adjustment and i didn't feel any different that night..The next day i woke up good once again and i had movement in my neck that i had lost for a long time so i steped out to rent a dvd with my girlfriend,while i was in the video-store i turned my neck to the left to look at something and it felt almost like i got hit by lighting in the neck causing me major nerve problems and i thought i was gonna die it almost felt like i had just hit my head and there was new trauma there like the day i fell..i was able to sleep after taking another relaxant..Its been a few days now that im recovering and its the same pattern pretty much,i wake up in the morning feeling almost normal then as the day goes on i get all kinds of symptoms tiredness,leepyness,lightheartedness,depre ssion,uscle spasmes in the neck and lower back,pressure in the back of the head and of course soreness is always there...the only 2 positive things are the relief i have in my neck were i used to feel the stabling sensation and more movement in my neck other than that i hate how i feel i'd rather have pain then what i feel now...i was told its my body trying to heal itself..i hope it wont last too long cause i cant live like this...i wonder if other ppl that did this felt this way..I didn't go to my appointment today cause im scared what its gonna do to me again ill wait and c how i feel for a couple of dayz and then i might go again if i feel better...im not saying atlas orthogonal adjustment is bad cause it did give me some relief in the areas that i needed but gave me a bunh of other problems ..not everybody reacts this way i guess...i suggest before you do it though to take some days off work cause you might feel very tired the next day
