Cracking sounds usually accompany the manipulation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">In 1970, Dr. Sweat brought the procedures into the realm of &ldquo;high tech&rdquo; science by inventing the Atlas Percussion &ldquo;sound wave&rdquo; adjusting instrument. Calculations from a computer X-ray analysis reveals how much the atlas has shifted, tilted or rotated away from its normal balanced position. <\/p>\n<p>Once the exact misalignment is determined, a vector direction in 3 dimensions is determined, precisely opposing the misalignment. Thus the analysis yields the precise force to be applied to make a pinpoint atlas correction.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">It applies a precisely directed, split-second sound vibration on a tiny spot on the side of the neck, which moves the misaligned atlas bones and re-positions the head over the center of the neck. This Atlas Orthogonal (AO) procedure reactivates normal transmission of nerve messages <a href=\"?p=507\"><span style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 255);\">sent from the brain to affected parts of the body. <\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">The Atlas is re-positioned without spinal manipulation, such as &ldquo;cracking the neck,&rdquo; and thus within the body&rsquo;s normal range of motion. It feels like &ldquo;turning on a light switch&rdquo; to the entire body.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">As Atlas misalignment is the root cause of body imbalance, this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.atlasorthogonality.com\/\"><span style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 255);\">AO-technique<\/span><\/a> is only performed on the Atlas vertebra. After the usually soundless spinal adjustment has been made, a post X-ray analysis verifies the correction. Further X-rays are usually unnecessary.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"261\" height=\"250\" alt=\"\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/..\/userfiles\/image\/A-Orthogonal.jpg\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"?p=325\"><span style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 255);\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">read more &#8230;<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Atlas Adjustment?
