Why choose us?

Blair Upper Cervical technique

Care is built around the Blair Upper Cervical method, a precise approach to the atlas and axis at the top of the neck rather than a general full-spine adjustment.

No cracking or twisting

The correction is gentle and delivered by hand, with no cracking, twisting, or popping, which suits patients who are wary of a traditional adjustment.

37+ years in practice

Dr. Michael Lenarz, D.C. has practiced upper cervical chiropractic for more than 37 years and has helped over 15,000 patients.

Blair Advanced Certified Instructor

Dr. Lenarz is a Blair Advanced Certified Instructor who trains other Blair doctors and serves on the board of directors of the Blair Upper Cervical Society.

Imaging before any adjustment

Specialized upper cervical X-rays map your own atlas and axis anatomy and misalignment angle before the first correction is made.

Correction, not dependency

The stated goal is fewer visits rather than more, with follow-up imaging around 4 to 8 weeks to confirm the correction is holding.

FAQs

What is the Blair Upper Cervical technique?
Blair is an upper cervical chiropractic method focused on the atlas and axis, the top two bones in the neck, where they sit at the brainstem. The correction is calculated from imaging of your own anatomy, so no two patients receive the same adjustment.
Does the adjustment involve cracking or twisting?
No. Health First Chiropractic states there is no cracking, twisting, or popping. The correction is gentle and delivered by hand, and you rest afterward so the nervous system can settle.
What conditions do you see patients for?
Migraines and chronic headaches, vertigo and Meniere's disease, neck pain and whiplash, sciatica and low back pain, post-concussion syndrome, tinnitus and ear symptoms, TMJ, and fibromyalgia.

What happens on the first visit?
The visit starts with a consultation covering your symptom history, past injuries, and previous treatments. That is followed by specialized upper cervical X-rays that map your atlas and axis before any correction is made.
How many visits will I need?
The practice states its goal is fewer visits rather than more, with follow-up imaging around 4 to 8 weeks to confirm the correction is holding. The exact plan depends on your case.
