FT. WORTH, Texas, June 10, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ft. Worth chiropractor, Dr. Chris Michlin is the only board-certified Atlas Orthogonal adjustment doctor in North Texas, and he uses this technique to treat patients suffering from neck pain, back pain and conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS). A chiropractic Atlas Orthogonal (AO) adjustment realigns the Atlas vertebra at the very base of the skull. According to Dr. Michlin, when this vertebra is improperly aligned, nervous system impulses from the brain to the rest of the body are interrupted, which can cause pain. Dr. Michlin reports that he has helped patients experience relief from conditions such as sciatica, headaches, migraines, fibromyalgia, autism and multiple sclerosis (MS) with this specific type of adjustment. <\/p>\n
Dr. Michlin says that people have driven all the way from Mexico to his and his wife's Ft. Worth chiropractic care center for the AO treatment. \"The Atlas Orthogonal adjustment is so effective because the Atlas vertebra is literally the front door leading from the brain down through the spinal cord. If that bone is misaligned, and the skull is not sitting correctly, the nervous system cannot communicate with the rest of the body and things start to go wrong. Back pain, neck pain, headache and migraine problems are just a few symptoms. Misalignment in this vertebra also affects the alignment of all the other vertebrae in the spine, like a chain reaction.\" Dr. Michlin says that patients whose Atlas vertebrae are out of alignment often have one leg that measures longer than the other because the rest of the spine and hips become uneven. <\/p>\n
Dr. Michlin demonstrated that the AO adjustment technique is gentle and does not involve any cracking or twisting of the neck. He first examines the patient manually, feeling for soreness and tenderness in the neck that indicate a misalignment of the Atlas vertebra. X-rays verify the extent of any misalignment. Dr. Michlin then positions the patient on an adjusting table and uses a small instrument that delivers vibration impulses to the Atlas vertebra through the skin. Over a series of adjustment sessions, the vibrations reposition the Atlas. <\/p>\n
Dr. Michlin says the results of the AO adjustment have been aired across national TV and that it has helped people overcome conditions as difficult as MS, as well as neck and back pain, headaches, migraines and even autism and colic. He points to celebrity talk show host Montel Williams, who suffers from MS, as an example. After undergoing AO adjustments, Williams reported drastic relief of his MS symptoms. Dr. Michlin says his own patients have similar stories. \"When I see the results of the AO chiropractic adjustment in my own patients, it is inspiring. The misalignment of this one vertebra can do so much damage, yet realigning it can bring so much relief.\" <\/p>\n
