Benefits of NUCCA:  National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association

Dr. Alano has being utilizing the gentile and precise NUCCA procedure for over 25 years. Coastal Chiropractic Group is the oldest NUCCA practice in RI and one of the oldest in New England with patients regularly traveling for the procedure from as far as Philadelphia, Connecticut, across Massachusetts and Martha's Vineyard.

NUCCA is an acronym for the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association.  This fraternal organization was formed in 1966 after the NUCCA upper cervical chiropractic techniques, teaching methods, and licensing procedures were already established.  NUCCA exists to further develop these techniques, teaching methods, and licensing, while also providing resources for patients and a directory of NUCCA credentialed chiropractors.

The NUCCA procedure frees the nervous system of interference by using a precise, non-invasive, gentle touch technique. This procedure can help you feel better regardless of your circumstances because your central nervous system affects all human function, and when it's clear, optimal health and well-being can be achieved.

The focus of the NUCCA work is on a small misalignment of the bone structure that connects the head and neck, a condition called the Atlas Subluxation Complex. This misalignment can block the communication between your brain and body causing pain, stress, tension, and overall physical and emotional dysfunction.

Some of the many symptoms that can be relieved by correction of the Atlas Subluxation Complex include but are not limited to:
  • Neck and back pain
  • Headaches and Migraines
  • Hypertension
  • Chronic pain or stress
  • Leg and arm numbness
  • Scoliosis
  • TMJ
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Sinus and allergy problems
  • Herniated disc
  • Seizures
  • Depression
  • Attention Deficit Disorder
  • Hormonal Imbalance
  • Athletic and auto injuries
  • Bed wetting
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Arthritis
