“Do you have a crooked nose?” This question may seem unusual at first glance. But it serves a simple test to determine if your atlas is misaligned. A photo taken from above can show if your nose is in a direct line with your sternum. If it deviates to the side, this could be a sign of atlas misalignment.

The term “atlas correction” describes the manual therapy treatment of functional disorders in the area of the upper cervical joints and the lower cervical spine. The focus here is on the mobilization and manipulation of the first cervical vertebra, the atlas, when it is malpositioned, displaced or blocked.

Atlas therapy usually consists of only one treatment. This begins with determining whether a correction is necessary at all. This is followed by an intensive massage using the “Libro” vibration device. The vibro-resonance releases muscle tension, which facilitates the subsequent correction.

Once the atlas is repositioned correctly, we have achieved our goal and your back is back in its natural alignment. After 8 weeks, we check again to make sure everything has adjusted ideally.

Many people perceive treatments on the cervical spine as risky. It is important to emphasize that the potential risk lies mainly in the chiropractic manipulation called thrust.

Atlas therapy relies on an entirely new approach that is completely safe. It is fundamentally different from chiropractic and osteopathic techniques and cannot be compared to any other therapy you may already know. No sudden twisting of the neck is used, nor is traction or pressure applied to the cervical spine.

While conventional manipulations of the cervical vertebrae must be performed regularly, our atlas therapy focuses on a one-time treatment with lasting effects.

An atlas therapy costs 250€ and is done in only one session 60–120 minutes.
