WHAT IS ATLAS ORTHOGONAL THERAPY IN GOLDSBORO?
Dr. Sweat is considered by many to be one of the world’s foremost authorities on the cervical spine. After years of extensive research, he developed a non-invasive, precision instrument to restore structural integrity from cervical vertebral malposition. The percussion instrument achieves postural restoration without manipulation or surgery. This precision treatment reduces cervical spine misalignment and its related symptomatology.
Dr. Gallagher began using the AO procedure in 2000. It was the unique results with some truly hard cases that inspired Dr. Gallagher to author a book titled, “Is Your Head On Straight?“. Dr. Sweat (the founder of Atlas Orthogonal) has even written a foreword to the book.
This technique uses a percussion wave force to correct the misalignment at the brain stem area. In light of this procedure’s exactness and light force, we find it is a great tool to help patients who have had a traumatic brain injury.
