What Are Secondary Conditions?

Once an Atlas Obstruction interferes with the spinal cord and surrounding nerves, it can trigger a wide range of secondary conditions, or symptoms. These are called “secondary” because they result from the primary issue—an underlying structural shift in the upper cervical spine.

The severity and direction of this obstruction can help us understand the nature and intensity of your health concerns. Some common secondary conditions include:

  • Neck pain/dysfunction (1-9)
  • Cervical herniated disc (10-13)
  • Cervical curve distortion (14-18)
  • Cervicobrachialgia (19-22)
  • Motor vehicle trauma (23-25)
  • Scalenus anticus syndrome (26)
  • Torticollis (27-35)
  • Headaches (2,8,36-44)
  • Low back pain (3,45-55)
  • Postural distortion (41,44,55-59)
  • Scoliosis (60,61)
  • Knee pain (62)
  • Ageusia (63)
  • Anosmia (63)
  • Arnold-Chiari malformation (11,64)
  • Asthma (41,65-68)
  • Athletic performance (69)
  • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (18,23,41,70)
  • Autism (71-73)
  • Bell’s palsy (74)
  • Bone density (75)
  • Bowel dysfunction (76-78)
  • Cerebral palsy (79)
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome (80,81)
  • Clonus (82)
  • Cystic hygroma (83)
  • Diabetes type II (84)
  • Febrility (85)
  • Health enhancement (86-90)
  • Hearing loss (91)
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (92)
  • HIV (93,94)
  • Hypertension (95-9)
  • Infantile colic (99,100)
  • Meniere’s disease (101,102)
  • Mental disorders (41,43,103-105)
  • Multiple sclerosis (106-109)
  • Nocturnal enuresis (110)
  • Otalgia/otitis media (7,111)
  • Parkinson’s disease (108,112)
  • Pulmonary function (113)
  • Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (114)
  • Scheuermann’s disease (54)
  • Seizure disorders (43,110,115-118)
  • Sleep disorders (8,41,43)
  • Stomach problems (119,120)
  • Tinnitus/vertigo (91,121,122)
  • Tourette’s syndrome (41,123)
  • Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) (124-32)
  • Visual acuity (133)

The abundance of case reports and studies presented provides compelling evidence regarding the deleterious effects of an Atlas Obstruction and the potential benefits of Foundational Correction and Upper Cervical Chiropractic Orthospinology. This research is more impressive when one considers how few doctors worldwide are proficient in this procedure and how little financial support has been given for research. Given the anatomical, bio-mechanical and neurological complexity of the upper cervical spine, this sub-specialty of chiropractic care is an underutilized aspect of providing comprehensive healthcare.
