Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a tricky condition to manage. That’s why many people seek an upper cervical chiropractor in Sacramento for help. It is difficult to diagnose and care for. No specific test can diagnose chronic fatigue; that’s why doctors have to rule out other conditions with similar symptoms. The whole process may take test after test before a definite answer comes up. If you’re unwell and exhausted, it can be frustrating to say the least.

Upper Cervical Chiropractor in Sacramento Can Relieve CFS
Upper cervical chiropractors, including myself, have the knowledge and training to care for the uppermost bones of the neck. The C1 and C2 vertebrae sit where the skull meets the spine. These bones are responsible for supporting the head in a straight position and protecting the delicate brainstem. If a subluxation occurs in these bones, it can result in the restriction of blood and cerebrospinal fluid flow in the brain. Also, the brainstem may experience pressure, causing it to send improper signals to the brain and body.Here at Body Balance Spinal Care in Sacramento, CA, I use upper cervical chiropractic techniques to help my patients with chronic fatigue syndrome. Upper cervical chiropractic care is both precise and gentle. It repositions the bones of the neck so that they are in their correct alignment. This results in a longer-lasting adjustment and far-reaching effects on the body, including restoration of vital fluids and nerve communication. Once corrections have been made, chronic fatigue may reduce in intensity or resolve itself completely. To experience this unique therapy, please send me a message.
