What is Atlas?
Atlas Orthogonal is a system of adjusting subluxations of the cervical spine at the uppermost vertebra which is commonly known as Atlas.
The actual adjustment is performed with an Atlas Orthogonal Percussion Adjusting Instrument. The instrument works by percussion – a sound wave – and the bone is gently restored to its normal position.
WHAT IS PERCUSSION?
An example of percussion is Newton’s Cradle. Newton demonstrated that if you pull one ball back and release it, the balls in the middle stay put, while the ball on the end bounces away. The Atlas Orthogonal Percussion Adjusting Instrument works on this same principle.
IS YOUR HEAD ON STRAIGHT?
Notice the tilt of the skull and lower neck on the before picture above. The first vertebra is extremely titled. This individual has more than eighteen degrees of rotation on his second, C2, vertebra.
After treatment, the rotation was reduced to 1.4-degrees immediately. The patient is now in a much more orthogonal (at right angles) alignment and feeling much better.
