Your office visits...
We are delighted to welcome you to our chiropractic office! Our goal is to provide precise and scientific care to help your body heal naturally. We understand that symptoms and diseases often result from a body that isn't functioning properly. Unlike conventional treatments that focus on symptoms, Blair Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care aims to enhance your body’s natural healing potential.
Understanding Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care
Upper cervical chiropractic care is based on the principle that your body is a self-healing and self-regulating system, as long as the nervous system is free of interference. This approach contrasts with mainstream healthcare, which often relies on external interventions like medications. Upper cervical care focuses on removing interferences to the nervous system, allowing your body to restore balance and health naturally.
Initial Consultation
During your first visit, the doctor will review your current health status, discuss any past traumas related to your health problems, and answer any questions you may have. Following this, you will undergo a series of tests to determine if you have a spinal misalignment affecting your body's function. We will then explain the Blair Upper Cervical Care process and what to expect as a patient.
Objective Testing
To identify nervous system interference, we use several objective tests:
- Leg Balancing Test: This test measures functional leg length to check for imbalances caused by spinal misalignments.
- Infrared Thermography Test: This test measures the surface skin temperature to detect imbalances caused by upper cervical nerve irritation.
Combination Tests
These tests help us determine the need for an adjustment, assess your progress, and evaluate the severity of your problem.
Precision X-Ray
We take precision X-rays of your neck joints to understand the exact misalignment. This detailed information allows us to provide a precise and gentle correction to restore proper vertebrae alignment.
Correcting and maintaining the alignment of your upper neck is crucial for overall health. The central nervous system, which includes the brain, brain stem, and spinal cord, controls and coordinates every function in your body. Misalignments, often caused by injuries such as whiplash or falls, can disrupt this system and lead to various health issues.
By correcting these misalignments and monitoring them over time, we can improve your body’s ability to heal from a wide range of health challenges. This is the primary goal of Blair Upper Cervical Care.
Using the precise information from your X-rays, your doctor will perform a careful spinal correction. This involves positioning you and applying the correct forces to realign the misaligned vertebrae, unlocking its normal range of motion and allowing your body to heal.

Dr. Cecilia Park, a highly skilled chiropractor originally from San Diego, has dedicated her career to specializing in the Blair Upper Cervical Chiropractic Technique. This unique and highly specialized approach focuses on the upper cervical spine, particularly the atlas and axis vertebrae, which play a crucial role in the alignment and function of the entire spine. By emphasizing the biomechanics of this region, Dr. Park aims to address a wide range of health concerns, recognizing that even slight misalignments can have profound effects on the brainstem, nervous system, and overall body function.
Unlike traditional chiropractic adjustments that may involve forceful movements, the Blair technique is known for its precision and gentleness. Instead of using twisting, popping, or rapid manipulations of the neck, this method relies on detailed imaging and precise measurements to tailor each adjustment specifically to the patient’s needs. The goal is to restore proper alignment and allow the body to heal naturally by relieving pressure on the nervous system. Many patients have reported significant improvements in their symptoms, including relief from chronic pain, migraines, vertigo, and other neurological issues, after receiving Blair technique care.
Dr. Park’s dedication to her practice has led her to expand her services to two locations. She currently treats patients in Los Angeles, specifically in the Korea Town area, as well as in her original practice in San Diego. By offering care in multiple locations, she is able to reach a broader patient base, ensuring that more individuals have access to the benefits of upper cervical chiropractic care. Her approach is not only focused on symptom relief but also on long-term health improvements, helping patients achieve better posture, reduced pain, and enhanced nervous system function.
With a deep commitment to patient-centered care, Dr. Park continues to educate her patients on the importance of spinal health, encouraging a holistic approach to well-being. Whether treating individuals with long-standing spinal issues or those simply seeking preventative care, her goal remains the same: to provide gentle, precise, and effective chiropractic care that supports the body's natural ability to heal and thrive.
