Dr. Bello believes in the power of the body to heal itself. When patients come to our practice, he gives them his, “Upper Cervical 101″ speech. He explains in depth how the body works and how the brain controls the body.
Our brain is hard-wired to every cell in the body through a network of nerves; no Bluetooth or Wi-Fi! When nerves are impinged at the Cranio-Cervical Junction (CCJ), that’s when the problems begin. Our lower brain stem is located at the CCJ. It controls all the body’s autonomous activities. Actions like breathing, blood pressure, etc.
When vertebrae are misaligned, pressure is placed on the brain stem. Since almost all nerves run through this area, an impingement can affect any and everything in your body.
Chiropractic is not a cure; Dr. Bello’s one job is to take the pressure off your brain stem. Only then will your body be able to start using its natural ability to heal itself.
Not your Usual Adjustment
Dr. Bello is certified in the Blair Upper Cervical Technique. The only chiropractic technique utilized in his practice, its sole focus is on the alignment of the seven cervical vertebrae. Specialized testing is done to find any misalignments. Adjustments are only given when nerve pressure is found.
The Blair Technique is concerned with the analysis and correction of misalignments of the cervical vertebrae. The Atlas and the Axis, otherwise known as C1 and C2, are the most moveable vertebra in the body. As such, they are also the ones most prone to be knocked out of place.
Blair is a gentle adjustment that involves no twisting, no cracking and no popping. It’s even safe to use on newborns! After your correction, we ask that you rest for a short period of time to allow the adjustment to settle.

High-Tech Testing is Key
Our technique relies on obtaining the most precise and detailed testing results. We employ several methods of testing; two of the most critical are the TyTron Thermographic Scanner and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT).
TyTron Thermography is used on the back of your neck to assess the heat produced. When your brain stem is feeling pressure, it compresses and produces heat. Thermography is safe, painless and reliable and uses no radiation.
Cone Beam Computed Tomography is full color, high definition and provides 360 degree images in one scan. These scans use less radiation than X-rays, provide better quality images and aid in making the most accurate diagnosis possible.
