Advanced Orthogonal
Purpose: The purpose of the Advance Orthogonal Club is to teach the science, philosophy and art of this gentle form of upper cervical care. Utilizing state-of-the-art, percussion and sound wave adjusting. The Advanced Orthogonal procedure offers patients a gentle and precise treatment for the correcting of cervical subluxations. These subluxations are first assessed by looking at all 3 dimensions in x-ray, then assessed by calculating exact vectors to correct each patient's misalignment. Painless, precise, sound wave adjusting is tailored for each patient, minimizing patient discomfort while maximizing the accuracy of the correction. The optimum goal is to get the spine to hold its own proper alignment, requiring less and less adjusting.
